Actor Bose Venkat on success of Kanni Maadam first look 

Actor Bose Venkat is high spirited and greatly rejoicing over the decorous reception for the first look of his forthcoming film “Kanni Maadam” that marks his directorial debut. With actor Suriya launching the first look, which has a unique design capturing everyone’s interest, the actor says, “If not for the great hearted gesture of Suriya sir, this would have not been possible. I am really thankful for his support towards the film by launching the first look.  I am also happy about the way, people have received it. I thank each and every Netizen, press and media for making the first look gain a good reach. Kanni Maadam is based on some of the real life incidents, which I encountered during my initial days in Chennai as auto-rickshaw driver. To be more precise, this is purely inspired from the incidents that happened at my neighbor’s home.”

On briefing about the significance of title and its relevance to the film, Bose Venkat says, “As I have already mentioned, one among the inspirations is drawn from Sandilyan’s novel with the same name that centers on impenetrable fortress for women. In another context, Kanni Maadam is observed as a memorial place, where people light lamps in remembrance of their family members and close ones, who have passed away. In some localities, it is a place where girls are forced to stay inside after they attain puberty.” 

Featuring newcomers Sriram and Gayathri in lead roles, Kanni Maadam has Aadukalam Murugadass, Gajaraj, Valeena Princes, Vishnu Ramasamy and Super Good Subramani appearing in important roles. Bankrolled by Hasheer for Rooby Films, the film is shot across Mettu Kuppam, Vijayaraghava Puram and Choolaimedu in Chennai. The musical score by Hari Sai has lots of surprise baggage that includes Robo Shankar rendering his voice for a song followed by big names like Antony Dasan and few others. Harris J Iniyan (Cinematography), Rishal Jaini (Editor), Siva Shankar (Art), Viveka (Lyrics) and Dinesh Subbarayan (Choreographer) are the others in the technical crew.

Kanni Maadam wraps up shooting

A filmmaker isn’t ennobled as ‘Captain of the Ship’ for the traits of expertise on screenwriting and directorial skills, but for the efficient planning. When a project is well planned at pre-production phase, it will definitely have a greater positive impact during the shooting phase, especially over wrapping it up on time. Actor turned filmmaker Bose Venkat has pushed the bars with his maiden attempt through ‘Kanni Maadam’, which has wrapped up the shooting now.

With the delighted spirit, director Bose Venkat says, “We started shooting for this film on February 18th and have completed it by May 16th that includes 35 days schedule with full unit and 7 days with camera crew. If not for the complete support of producer Hasheer, this would have not been possible. He never intervened into the creative process and extended his affinity towards project from beginning till end. We as a team are blessed to have a producer like him. In fact, we were delighted to see him so much happy on the wrap-up day as he hugged each and every crew out of love. These days, it’s not easy to see such emotional moments from a producer.”


Adding upon the specialty of ‘Kanni Maadam’, Bose Venkat says, “Kanni Maadam will define “What is called MADRAS?” We wanted to capture the most celebrated landmark places of the city giving complete details about it. It’s common that youngsters and others who come to Chennai with aspirations and dreams reside in areas like Mettu Kuppam, Vijayaraghava Puram and Choolaimedu. So we have shot the entire film across these places for the ‘nativity’ factors.”

All the songs composed by music director Hari Sai will be montages. It’s noteworthy that the film was recently under spotlights for having Robo Shankar crooning a song based on auto rickshaw drivers. Antony Dasan has a crooned a song and few more prominent icons will be rendering rest of the songs that includes names like Shreya Ghoshal or Chinmayi.

Hasheer is producing this film for Rooby Films featuring Sriram and Gayathri in lead roles.  Aadukalam Murugadoss, Gajaraj, Valeena Prince, Vishnu Ramasamy and Super Good Subramani are playing important roles. Harris J Iniyan has handled cinematography with Rishal Jaini as editor and Siva Shankar as art director Viveka penning lyrics and Dinesh Subbarayan choreographing stings. The post-production work of Kanni Maadam is happening on full swing and the official announcement on the first look, trailer, audio and worldwide release will be made shortly
