A film that shows the positive side of life

It might be Vijaysankar���s first film, but the director is keen on portraying only good things in his films. His debut film,

Oru Naal

Kanavu, is about living life like a dream. ���Everyone can relate to this film. We have dealt about the day-to-day happenings in life. While many films tend to show both the positive and negative things, I have shown only the positive side of a human being. I want everyone to feel connected when they watch the film,��� says Vijaysankar.The film has newbies Ramakrishnan, Amala and Soundaraj (who was seen in Jigarthanda) in the lead. ���We have also touched upon friendship and the relationship between a husband and wife. The film is set in Nagercoil, and we also shot in places like Kanyakumari, Kodaikanal, Hyderabad and one small portion in Chennai,��� he says.

The director, who hails from a village near Vellore, says that his love for Tamil literature is what triggered his interest in cinema. ���I read a lot and love Tamil literature. I used to watch a lot of stage dramas in my village. Slowly, I developed interest in cinema. I worked as an assistant in films like Bharathi Kannamma, Autograph, Azhagi and Santosh Subramaniam, and so on," he says.
