Sundar
C's
Tamil
horror-comedy
Aranmanai
2,
which
is
in
its
last
leg
of
shooting,
has
set
a
new
record
for
creating
Asia's
largest
statue
of
Goddess
Amman,
which
will
be
used
in
important
juncture
in
the
film.
According
to
the
makers,
the
feat
is
likely
to
enter
Limca
Book
of
Records.
"We
had
planned
to
create
the
scenes
involving
the
statue
of
the
goddess
with
visual
effects,
but
we
weren't
sure
if
it'd
be
as
authentic
as
a
real
one.
Hence,
we
decided
to
make
a
statue
with
plaster
of
Paris,
skeletons
and
some
other
materials," the
film's
art
director
Gururaj
told
IANS.
It
took
the
team
40
days
to
complete
the
statue,
which
is
103
feet
tall.
"We
made
the
statue
with
lot
of
sincerity.
Some
of
us
even
fasted
for
few
days
until
we
completed
the
task," he
said.
A
sequel
to
last
year's
Aranmanai,
the
film
stars
Siddharth,
Trisha
Krishnan,
Hansika
Motwani,
Soori
and
Poonam
Bajwa
in
important
roles.
The
film
is
produced
by
Sundar's
actress-wife
Khushbhu.
