It was a mixed feeling of excitement and a speculative challenge. Although, I thought how far this statement from him would get materialized and he proved right with his narration, where he had included about the props in the script. However, I wasn’t pretty sure if this would get noticed by the viewers, but was surprised to see it happen by the motion poster itself. Even in the trailer, we could come across specific shots having properties.” says art director Kamalanathan who has substantially engraved his presence in trailer through his art work.  

While speaking about the film’s premise, Kamalanathan says, “K13 isn’t going to be a routine thriller.

Scheduled for worldwide release on May 3, K13 is produced by SP Sankar and Santha Priya for SP Cinemas with Sam CS (Music), Aravinnd Singh (Cinematography), Ruben (Editing), Udhayakumar T (Sound Design).
