After ‘Kanave Kalaiyathe’ and ‘Giyachi’, V. Gauthaman is back to direct a film with ‘Maveera’. The shooting will start soon.
“My ambition is to film three things that cannot be separated from the history of Tamils. I have already done ‘Chandanakadu’ serial. Next are ‘Mundrikad’ and ‘Vannikkad’. ‘Maveera’ is the story of a hero who protects our land and dignity. To the next generation, we have to tell the honor of our land. This is such a work” says V. Gauthaman.
How did GV Prakash come into this story?
After hearing the entire story of this film, GV Prakash said that he would definitely compose the music. Then he told me to make a true story suitable for my age. I said yes. Vairamuthu has written an excellent song which adds strength to the film. Cinematography by Vetrivel Mahendran. Balamurali Varman penned the lyrics.
You entered the field for people’s struggle… have you come back to cinema?
I went to the protest field only after being in the cinema. Now I have come to cinema from the field of struggle. That’s it. My job is to fight on the floor and on screen. Both are indistinguishable to me.
Will you continue to direct films?
Strictly. I will continue to make films that convey our identity and our roots. I will give pictures that speak of our archetypal heroism, virtue and humility without any compromise. My films are such that everyone who sees the film can relate themselves to the film.
