00:00I stayed at Mamooka Punkage Hotel in a small lodge.
00:04So, you had already booked a hotel before you stayed there?
00:08Yes, in Punkage.
00:10No, no. I stayed in Punkage Hotel.
00:13There is a lodge nearby. I stayed there.
00:16So, when I go for a walk, I walk and think,
00:19I will stay in this hotel for a day and then I go.
00:22So, you are going to stay there?
00:24No, no. I don't have time today.
00:30I don't have time today.
00:32So, Raj, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow...
00:37Hello, do you have a hotel?
00:39Is it Punkage Hotel?
00:41Is the manager of Punkage Hotel there?
00:43He is the manager, right?
00:45Hey, it's you!
00:46No, no. No problem. Thank you.
00:51Sorry, dad.
00:55Sorry, sir.
00:56No, sir. I didn't hear you.
00:58I am looking for a pattern lighting.
01:01A modern, variety pattern.
01:03I am looking for a pattern lighting.
01:05I will give full credit to my DOP, Eswar sir, for the lighting.
01:10But when I told him the story,
01:13I wanted a warm tone movie.
01:16Now, in Tamil Nadu, many places have LED lights.
01:19There are only white lights.
01:22So, I took the liberty
01:24to have a warm, high contrast movie.
01:28Because a movie's story is what demands everything.
01:32I didn't want to do it on purpose.
01:35I wanted the scene to be like this.
01:38I told that to my DOP.
01:40And he did a fantastic job.
01:42Can I just add to that?
01:44No, not this.
01:45To add to that...
01:47Actually, when we shoot in detail,
01:49you are all cameramen, you know.
01:51You get good shots and colors.
01:53But at night,
01:54normally people go day for night.
01:56Or with just one source light,
01:58you get a little bounce.
02:00But if it's just a few night scenes,
02:02or a few day scenes,
02:03you get that balance.
02:04This movie was shot completely at night.
02:07So, what was his job?
02:09Every scene and every shot had to look beautiful.
02:12So, sometimes...
02:14We connect a 300 rupee shot.
02:16When he did the patchwork,
02:18he used just one source light for 300 rupees.
02:20With a bounce and a few water cans,
02:22we shot it.
02:23That's all.
02:24So, even in small things,
02:26you can get beauty.
02:27Small sources of light.
02:28He tried it in a different way.
02:30But it has to look natural.
02:32Sorry, I interrupted Mr. Director.
02:35I'm sorry, he was saying something.
02:37I'll tell you later.
02:38Actually, Janneen's work...
02:40Yes.
02:42Yes.
02:44Mimicry.
02:45Yes, and mimicry also.
02:47And both have beautiful hearts.
02:50How about Suraj?
02:53I'll see Suraj again.
02:56But meanwhile, I should talk about Mani also.
02:58When we did Gemini,
03:00I...
03:02Today, this story...
03:04I was like, yeah, it's nice, it's exciting.
03:06But something is missing.
03:08So, we shot two scenes during lunch break.
03:12I was like, okay.
03:14Mani came and acted.
03:17And something hit.
03:19During lunch break,
03:21he started mimicking a pet.
03:23Like a snake, like a camel.
03:25He differentiated everything.
03:27I was like...
03:28And the director said,
03:29sir, let's use this.
03:30And the character changed.
03:32From a pet to a chicken.
03:34You know, like that.
03:35So, the moment that happened,
03:37after seeing that, I thought,
03:38okay, this movie will be a hit.
03:39It gave me so much strength.
03:41But at the same time,
03:43he was very jovial.
03:45Very carelessly, he'll be casual.
03:47I liked that a lot.
03:49He's a huge loss.
03:50I mean, as a friend.
03:51What a great loss for the industry.
03:53For all of us.
03:55Beautiful person.
03:56Suraj, of course, as I said,
03:58fantastic.
03:59All-rounder.
04:01You want to dance today and impress everybody?
04:05Actually, Suraj, I don't know.
04:07Today, he's quite relaxed, I think.
04:11Because we had a good time.
04:13Actually, good time is a lie.
04:15During the shooting,
04:16he said, hi, Suraj.
04:18Oh, shot ready.
04:20Oh, you know.
04:21Okay, sir.
04:22Just now.
04:23That's all.
04:24You know.
04:25Even the smile.
