Gowtham Menon's message about 'Nadunissi Naaygal'
25th February 2011
Nadunisi Naaygal is new age Tamil cinema. I have tried to break the rules of regular Tamil cinema with this film. It's also in a genre that is new to me. It's experimental in the sense that it is a dark and disturbing film. It's a contrast to all my earlier films in every sense. In a way, it's an announcement that I am always looking to break away from a style that I am known for and create a new style for myself. Anything experimental and new will always be received with bouquets and brickbats and I am at a stage in my career where I fully understand that. I stand by this film with a lot of conviction. Its not a film that you can walk out of saying that you loved it unless you are fond of this genre of films. It's an experience, that's all it is. And the last frame before the direction card will tell you why I decided to make this film. Your encouragement will hopefully pave the way for a new style in tamil cinema and a new breed of Tamil filmmakers.
