We
have seen documentaries and films about graduates
suffering without jobs but it was a short
film about problems faced by employed professionals
that caught everyone's attention. Fair and
lovely/ Kaadhalikka Neramillai is a short
film directed by Suriya who is the son of
acclaimed Tamil writer Balakumaran. An MBA
graduate from Jeppiyar University, Suriya
chose the story of his friend Siva for the
short film in spite of his father who has
written hundreds of novels.
When asked about his father's influence, he
said that Balakumaran only encouraged him
to do better in his new profession. With his
latest product 'Ennuyir Thozhan', Suriya hopes
he will get a break soon with a chance to
be an assistant director for a renowned director.
Irony is that it reminds us of one of Balakumaran's
earlier novels!
