Gautham Vasudeva Menon is shooting his Vinnaithandi Varuvaya in one of his
favourite locations- Alappuzha (Alleppy) in Kerala. He had shot a part of a
song for his Vettayadu Vilayadu in these locations.
They are on a 10-day schedule to shoot some scenes and a background song scene
in the ‘Venice of East’. Gautham is trying to discover some new never seen
before exotic locations in the palm fringed canals and lagoons of this picture
book like backwaters.
Gautham will shoot in some finest locations like Pathiramanal, a small island
located in the middle of Vembannad Lake. From here the scenic beauty of both
sides of the lake as well as that of the island is mind blowing and is home to
many rare varieties of migratory birds from different parts of the world.
Gautham knows that more than a two dozen Tamil and Hindi films have been shot
here (Remember Ajit- Trisha Akkam Pakkam.. song in Kireedam?), so he is trying
to ‘discover’ new virgin areas where the movie cameras has not travelled.
AR Rahman is the music director of Vinnaithandi Varuvaya. The film is
progressing briskly and is scheduled to release in July.
