Speaking about his penchant for low lighting effects,
which also happens to be his forte, Balu Mahendra
said that when God’s gift of natural lighting
is not available he uses artificial lighting to
show the originality. “I think I have come
close to achieving it, but am still to accomplish
it in toto.”
He seems to have thoroughly enjoyed the movie
Mozhi. On his comments on the movie, he said that
it had a right blend of commercial elements and
romantic comedy with a social message. “I
was affected by it. Kudos to Prakash Raj for producing
the movie” he said. Radha Mohan was also
appreciated for his excellent direction. Vijay
Milton’s work in Kadhal for it naturalness
also seems to have captured the attention of Balu
Mahendra.
Though he had found Paruthiveeran very loud,
the cinematographer liked it for its ethnical
value. But then, a village subject has to be so
to bring out the essence of the story.
“I never trust anybody where cinematography
is concerned. Not even my son.” said the
Ace director on the go.
