It’s a very different story but there’s a slight problem, said Karti; My counter question was: Naren
Kaiti was a film directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj with Karthi and Naren in lead roles. The film released in 2019 became a blockbuster in Tamil.
The second part of the film is also being prepared.
In an interview with Popperstop Malayalam, Naren is talking about coming to Kaiti even though he was not interested in playing police roles. Naren also says that when he told Lokesh Karti’s story about Kaiti, Karti called him to tell him about the police role.
“Karthi was already known personally. Karthi knew that I was not interested in the police role.
When Karthi asked who would play the other character, Lokesh said Naren sir was in mind. Anjathe is one of Lokesh’s favorite movies. Even after that, when the police character comes, I am in Puli’s mind.
I didn’t know that. As soon as I said Naren, Karti said I will call and tell you. That is how Kaiti was born.
It was not a request. There is a film like this, it will be very different, not a hero-oriented film, three characters are important,” said Pulli.
But at last Pulli said that there is a slight problem with this. I immediately asked if he was a police character. Pulli said yes.
I asked if he would be a very serious policeman. Yes, that’s why I called directly, said Pulli. That’s how I got to Kaiti. The movie was good for me.
We will not reject anything for nothing. When everything comes together, we will play the role of police,” said Naren.
Naren also played an important role in Lokesh’s Kamal Haasan-starrer Vikram. Vikram had won the record collection.
Meanwhile, Naren’s upcoming Malayalam film is Adrisham directed by Zach Harris. Joju, George and Sharafuddin play other important roles in the film.
