Sedin Kuasha Chilo

. This is the first time

Pritha

is acting in a film and she is naturally very excited.

“I first saw Pritha at Paran babu’s house. Initially, she didn’t like me that much, but after a few days, we became pally. After seeing and talking to her, I decided to cast her in the film. When I told Paran babu about this, he was a bit sceptical,” said Arnab.

Even though Pritha does theatre regularly and often practises with her grandfather, Paran was initially apprehensive. “I was not very sure if she would be able to pull this off. But Arnab seemed confident and decided to cast her after taking permission from her parents,” said Paran.

On the first day of the shoot, seeing all the cast and crew members and cameras, Pritha got tense and started crying. “So, we started taking the shots in a way so that she could not see the cameras, as if she was practising in her house. This way, she slowly overcame her anxiety and felt free,” said Arnab.
