BW: A brief introduction
Anand
Govindan : I am Anand
Govindan and I am one of the
producers of this film. This
is my first film as a producer.
Arun and I are good friends
and we often discuss about Tamil
cinema. When Arun told me the
story, it struck a chord in
me and generated an interest.
However when I was worried about
its financial viability, Arun
suggested that we go for a global
film and made me understand
that the film can be taken to
a worldwide audience. As I was
reading the script, I realized
the significance. We are also
glad that the film won many
awards at international festivals
and was received well. Please
see the film with your family
in theatres and encourage a
good effort.
Why the film was shot entirely
in US?
This film could have been shot
anywhere even in India but it
may not have had the desired
reach. We chose New Jersey to
shoot because we have all the
facilities and infrastructure
there and the ambience was much
conducive. And also the place
was apt for the story.
