Director Priyadarshan and cinematographer Santosh Sivan are coming together after almost 17 years, for a Hindi movie. Their last outing together was in the Malayalam movie Kaalapani , in 1996.
Now, the duo is all set to team up again for the Hindi remake of blockbuster Tamil film Nadodigal , which was directed bySamuthirakani. The ace camera man is very excited about his newcommitment with the prolific director Priyan.
"I am definitely excited about the project becausethe last time I worked with him, I ended up winning the National Award for Best Cinematographer.
Another special reason is that art director Sabu Cyril (art director) will be involved in the project too," the only Indian member of American Society of Cinematographers (ASC), told to a leading newspaper.
Priyan, meanwhile is currently busy with with the post-production of his next Hindi movie Mamamaal Weekly 2 and has started the paper works of the Nadodigal remake as well. A source close to Priyan has said that this movie will feature only new faces, as the flick is script oriented. "He's decided to cast only newcomers for the film, quitelike what Samuthirakani did for the Tamil original. It's one of those films where the script is given more prominence than the star cast. It's a story about youngsters and has a lot of potential for them to perform," said the source.
The shoot of the movie is expected to start soon after the release of Malamaal Weekly 2.
