Santosh Sivan and Priyadharshan are back together after seventeen years. Santosh Sivan last worked with Priyadharshan in Kalapani (Siraichalai in Tamil), which earned the cinematographer a National Award. He is also happy that Sabu Cyril, who also won a national award for the same movie, has been roped in for this project.
All the three geniuses are coming together to remake Samuthirakani’s Nadodigal in Hindi. This also marks the 19th Hindi remake of director Priyadharshan. The director has planned to cast newcomers as leads for this film, as Samuthirakani did for Nadodigal.
