Nadunisi Naigal stills
Gautham Menon’s thriller Nadunisi Naigal (Midnight Dogs) is almost ready. The film has new boy Veera, Gautham’s long-time assistant, and Sameera Reddy in the lead.
The film is said to be a 100-minute psychological thriller, made like a Hollywood whodunit. For the first time, Gautham will not have any songs in his film! The buzz is that he may not even have the mandatory background music in Nadunisi Naigal.
Nadunisi Naigal is reportedly about obsessive love and the violence associated with it. Gautham is planning to have only a limited release of the film, which is said to be a ‘new age film for multiplex audiences’. Nadunisi Naigal will release soon.
Gautham Menon, known for his pure, innovative Tamil titles like Khakka Khakka Pachakili Muthucharam, Vaaranam Aayiram, Vinnayithandi Varuvaaya, chose the title Nadunisi Naigal because, according to the story, the name should also sound different and evoke curiosity among his fans.
One of the highlights of Nadunisi Naigal will be Manoj Paramahama’s cinematography.
