Of
the few actors willing to experiment
with producing movies on their own,
Prakashraj leads the pack. His Duet
Productions ventured into movie making
a few years ago, and has been successful
in releasing quality movies—even
if they were not hugely successful
at the box office.
Poi, the Balachander-directed flick which was
released recently in theatres has been produced
by Prakashraj as well, you might recall. Prakashraj,
who was mentored by Balachander during his early
days in cinema, states that he is satisfied with
the outcome of the movie. States the actor: ‘The
movie hasn’t brought me revenues, but I
am proud that I was part of a good movie. I am
grateful that Poi was directed by my guru Balachander’,
he adds.
Failing to evoke nothing but the most tepid of
the responses at the box office, Poi has not received
any positive criticism from the media either.
