00:00 Welcome to One India Film Week. Today we have with us the director of 'Siren' Anthony Baccarats.
00:10 How are you?
00:13 I'm good.
00:15 The title of the film looks like two conflicts. One is the conflict between the two sirens and the other is the conflict between the two obelisks.
00:23 How did you come up with the idea of a siren as a common topic and two obelisks as a conflict?
00:29 The title is very important. The title should be catchy and apt for the story.
00:39 So, any of the two options would not work.
00:44 I suddenly thought of a siren as a common factor.
00:54 When I told my friends about the title, they asked me if I was a lawyer.
01:01 I said yes and the audience said 'siren'.
01:04 The beauty of the title is that it creates a question mark.
01:12 It also has a sound.
01:15 If you say 'siren', you will hear a sound.
01:17 I liked that.
01:19 It's easy to imagine.
01:21 So, I decided to go with 'siren'.
01:23 Keerthi Suresh is a rugged police officer.
01:28 Her acting is amazing.
01:31 We have seen her cuteness and her comedy.
01:34 How did you come up with the idea of a rugged police officer?
01:37 First of all, we need a proper heroine.
01:42 We need a heroine who is a part of the heroine category.
01:56 We need a heroine who is in the same category as the heroine.
01:59 We need a heroine who is in the same category as the heroine.
02:02 We need a heroine who is in the same category as the heroine.
02:07 We need a heroine who is in the same category as the heroine.
02:12 I had a hope that the audience would agree.
02:17 She is a bold character.
02:20 I was afraid that they would say no.
02:23 It was new for me.
02:25 I knew that they would accept my offer.
02:30 I knew that the reception would be good.
02:33 But they were very hesitant about the character.
02:37 They didn't want to handle the character.
02:41 They were very hesitant about the character.
02:44 They were very hesitant about the character.
02:51 They started observing Nandhini.
02:54 I liked her a lot.
02:56 She gained 5 kgs for our film.
02:58 She was lean at that time.
03:00 She was a fitness freak.
03:03 She called me and told me that she had to put on a uniform and do a look test.
03:09 She told me that she was 5 kgs heavier than me.
03:13 I was like, "Ma'am, please come."
03:16 I was thinking about how to ask her.
03:18 I was like, "Ma'am, please come."
03:20 I saw Nandhini as an entertainer.
03:27 She was a great choice for me.
03:30 We're going to see your pair for the first time on screen.
03:36 Keerthi said in an interview that you shot the first day shoot with the shirt on.
03:43 How did you shoot the first day shoot like this?
03:47 It was a bit planned but also a bit unplanned.
03:52 It was like a reality show.
03:54 I told the two characters that they didn't pair up.
04:01 When the news spread that you and Saran were acting, everyone started shooting.
04:07 I was like, "They're going in a different route. We're shooting in a different route."
04:12 After you came in, you didn't shoot for 7 days.
04:17 They said, "I've only been shooting for 7 days."
04:22 I was like, "You've seen a lot."
04:25 We were shooting a combination scene for the first time.
04:27 We were thinking about which scene would be better.
04:29 We could have shot a different scene.
04:32 But I decided to shoot the first scene.
04:35 Even though they were known characters,
04:40 I thought it would be better to shoot the first day than the second day.
04:45 Because it was between the two of them.
04:47 It was a bit exciting to act with Ravi sir.
04:50 We decided to shoot the first day.
04:53 But they say that Kirtimam is cheating in interviews.
04:57 She's holding her shirt and pulling it.
05:00 If you ask her to do it 4 times, she'll do it in the 4th take.
05:03 Kirtimam did it so well.
05:06 But once she came in front of the camera,
05:09 Nandhini was like a god inside.
05:11 She did it perfectly.
05:13 She was just telling stories.
05:15 You're a realistic actor.
05:18 If you look at his films, you can relate to any character.
05:25 Kirti Suresh is also a realistic actor.
05:30 What did you need from them?
05:35 I needed clarity from a director or a debut director.
05:40 They don't have that doubt.
05:42 They'll give me whatever I ask for.
05:44 I was very clear about the quality.
05:46 I had a certain mood when I got the scene from the director.
05:50 I took the heroine as a fine actor.
05:53 But I didn't trust the debut director.
05:57 He never had a doubt.
05:59 He never had a monitor in 75 days.
06:01 He never asked me what scene I shot.
06:04 Even if you have a 75 day shooting process,
06:07 it will be a year when you schedule it.
06:10 I never asked him to show me a scene in that one year.
06:13 I never asked him to show me a scene in that one year.
06:15 I had that trust.
06:17 I wanted to create a Thilagan.
06:19 My hero name is Thilagan.
06:21 I wanted to create Thilagan because he had that trust.
06:23 That's why he didn't want to see me.
06:25 He would have some scenes that were okay.
06:29 We would know that it was a superb scene.
06:31 We would have thought that it was a bad scene.
06:35 But he would make it look good.
06:37 He would carry that performance.
06:39 We wouldn't have expected that.
06:41 We would have written it in a good mood.
06:43 We would have written that he came, stood and spoke.
06:45 But that would have been a simple dialogue.
06:47 It would have been important for the story.
06:49 But we would have felt that the scene was okay.
06:51 He would carry that performance.
06:53 He would stand and say, "I'll take care of it."
06:55 He would say that.
06:57 I would write it and say, "I'll take care of it."
06:59 We would have written it like that.
07:01 But he would stand and say, "I'll take care of it."
07:03 It would be so emotional.
07:05 He lifted me up as an artist.
07:09 I was so happy.
07:11 I felt like he was my own son.
07:13 At the same time,
07:15 Keerthi ma'am would come to me and tell me stories.
07:17 She would have seen the trailer.
07:19 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:21 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:23 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:25 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:27 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:29 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:31 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:33 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:35 She would have seen the opening shot.
07:37 I would have said, "I don't know how to act."
07:39 She would have said, "I don't know how to act."
07:41 I would have said, "We have 8 dummies here.
07:43 Why don't you know how to act?"
07:45 You should have asked her, "How do you act?"
07:47 What would I have done?
07:49 I would have said, "I don't know how to act."
07:51 I got 2 fine artists.
07:53 That was a big plus.
07:55 He was a national award winner.
07:57 He didn't have to mention the hero.
07:59 He would have taken it as a performance.
08:01 But the hero had a challenge.
08:03 He had to handle both the characters.
08:05 He had to keep a young look fast.
08:07 He had to keep a middle-aged look slow.
08:09 He had to keep a young look fast.
08:11 He had to keep a middle-aged look slow.
08:13 The tone of his voice would have changed.
08:15 You would have noticed the change in the dubbing.
08:17 The tone of his voice would have changed.
08:19 The tone of his voice would have changed.
08:21 The character would have spoken in a different way.
08:23 The character would have spoken in a different way.
08:25 The character would have spoken in a different way.
08:27 He was a fine artist.
08:29 He was a fine artist.
08:31 He was a fine artist.
08:33 He would have said, "This is a normal scene. Let's show it."
08:35 He would have said, "This is a normal scene. Let's show it."
08:37 I was surprised.
08:39 I was surprised.
08:41 I was happy that Ravi sir took the character.
08:43 I was happy that Ravi sir took the character.
08:45 Who is the most jolly and naughty in the sets?
08:47 Who is the most naughty and naughty in the sets?
08:49 I am the most jolly.
08:51 I am the most jolly.
08:53 The deputy director would say...
08:55 I don't want anyone to feel that way.
08:57 I don't want anyone to feel that way.
08:59 Ravi sir is very jolly.
09:01 He is not a jolly character.
09:03 He would have a counter-strike if you say anything.
09:05 Keerthi ma'am is a beautiful person.
09:07 She would always smile and be naughty.
09:09 She would always smile and be naughty.
09:11 She would always smile and be naughty.
09:13 There would be a person called Yogi Baban in the middle.
09:15 There would be a person called Yogi Baban in the middle.
09:17 He would have a different level.
09:19 He would have a different level.
09:21 If Kaniyan comes along, it would be different.
09:23 They would be a team.
09:25 They would be a team.
09:27 They would be a team.
09:29 The entire set would be jolly.
09:31 The entire set would be jolly.
09:33 Ravi sir would have a counter-strike.
09:35 Ravi sir would be voting for anyone.
09:37 Ravi sir would be a jolly character.
09:39 Ravi sir would be a jolly character.
09:41 Ravi sir would be a jolly character.
09:43 Who would be the most doubtful?
09:45 Who would be the most doubtful?
09:47 Who would be the most doubtful?
09:49 I will differentiate.
09:51 Ravi sir...
09:53 Ravi sir...
09:55 He asked me for a narration.
09:57 We had a gap of 1.5 years between the two sets.
09:59 We had a gap of 1.5 years between the two sets.
10:01 We had a gap of 1.5 years between the two sets.
10:03 He left the scene without any doubt.
10:05 He left the scene without any doubt.
10:07 He said, "I am an actor. I will work as a director."
10:09 He said, "I am an actor. I will work as a director."
10:11 He said, "I am an actor. I will work as a director."
10:13 He was that kind of a character.
10:15 He said, "I will go to a different film for a different schedule."
10:17 He said, "I will go to a different film for a different schedule."
10:19 He said, "I will go to a different film for a different schedule."
10:21 He said, "I will go to a different film for a different schedule."
10:23 He was a shooting artist.
10:25 He used to tell me,
10:27 "If I go to a different film, make me sit and mindset Nandini and take me."
10:29 "If I go to a different film, make me sit and mindset Nandini and take me."
10:31 "Otherwise, I would have come like Dasara."
10:33 "Otherwise, I would have come like Dasara."
10:35 Not all artists are ready for that.
10:37 A debut director can handle it.
10:39 "This is good. The police will talk to you."
10:41 "This is good. The police will talk to you."
10:43 But he never said that.
10:45 He used to tell me to mindset Nandini.
10:47 He used to tell me to mindset Nandini.
10:49 I see it as a dedication.
10:51 Who would ask that?
10:53 They don't think, "I will just walk and go."
10:55 They don't think, "I will just walk and go."
10:57 They don't think, "I will just walk and go."
10:59 "It would be better if I walk while thinking."
11:01 "It would be better if I walk while thinking."
11:03 "I will forget the previous scene and go to the next scene."
11:05 "I will forget the previous scene and go to the next scene."
11:07 "I will forget the previous scene and go to the next scene."
11:09 Who would ask that?
11:11 I don't doubt that.
11:13 It's about the involvement.
11:15 How to convey the character in that scene and shot.
11:17 I have seen a lot of that involvement with Keerthi.
11:19 But opposite to Ravi sir,
11:21 he used to say, "You have said it once, right?"
11:23 "Let it be. I will deliver it as if it was written."
11:25 "Baba, you can add something to this."
11:27 "Baba, you can add something to this."
11:29 But the other thing is,
11:31 Yogi Bambaran's character is not for humour.
11:33 It is a proper character.
11:35 It is a proper character.
11:37 So it worked out well.
11:39 If a comedy is made with a character, it will work out.
11:41 I placed him as a character.
11:43 Whatever he does, it will work out.
11:45 Because the character is innocent.
11:47 Because the character is innocent,
11:49 they delivered it well.
11:51 Yogi Babu sir,
11:53 in the shooting spot,
11:55 the people who talk about him,
11:57 he gives a lot of counters.
11:59 Do you have any memorable counters?
12:01 Babu has done a lot.
12:05 There is no counter.
12:07 There is an action.
12:09 It is in the secondary level of the film.
12:11 Babu has come for the dubbing.
12:13 I have been dubbing for 4-5 days.
12:15 He will say, "Ma, do that scene once."
12:17 He will enjoy the scene.
12:19 He will act, enjoy, laugh,
12:21 and then do the dubbing.
12:23 When he leaves in the evening,
12:25 he will say, "Ma, do that scene once."
12:27 He will watch it again and enjoy.
12:29 It happened for 4-5 days.
12:31 So there are moments like this in the film.
12:33 An artist acts,
12:35 he himself laughs in the dubbing,
12:37 and then he laughs again.
12:39 It was so happening for Babu.
12:41 There are a lot of counters.
12:43 There is a meter for the character.
12:45 He will laugh when he is asked to do something.
12:47 He has understood the character's meter.
12:49 There are a lot of counters.
12:51 I am not going to say them.
12:53 He enjoys it.
12:55 Other than the scenes in the film,
12:57 he has done a lot of counters
12:59 where he himself is in the shooting spot.
13:01 He has done a lot of fun things.
13:03 There is an EP in our film.
13:05 His name is Umar.
13:07 He looks like a foreigner.
13:09 He has a white t-shirt,
13:11 and he has a red glasses.
13:13 He will say,
13:15 "I am a cricket player in a hostel."
13:17 He will say this in the evening.
13:19 He will keep doing such counters.
13:21 He will address everyone well.
13:23 If I take him seriously,
13:25 he will ask,
13:27 "What are you doing?
13:29 Why are you not coming this way?"
13:31 "Hey, go inside.
13:33 Why are you getting tensed?"
13:35 "What is the hurry?
13:37 We have time."
13:39 He will keep us in that mood.
13:41 He will keep us in a mood
13:43 so that we don't get tensed.
13:45 He will say,
13:47 "It is good.
13:49 Let me do it. It is good."
13:51 He will do it to everyone.
13:53 I can't say it.
13:55 He will do it to everyone.
13:57 He is on-face.
13:59 He takes it very sportively.
14:01 When he speaks, it is very jolly.
14:03 He does it to everyone.
14:05 Samuthra Kanni sir is also there.
14:07 How was it to be a director?
14:09 There will be fear.
14:11 I don't know if I have done it before.
14:13 I saw it on TV.
14:15 I have seen it on TV.
14:17 I have heard that Samuthra Kanni is a good person.
14:19 He is a better person than that.
14:21 He is a good person.
14:23 If he asks me one more time,
14:25 I will keep watching the monitor.
14:27 I will think of it.
14:29 My face reaction will change.
14:31 I will look at him and say,
14:33 "One more? I am done."
14:35 I will keep watching the monitor.
14:37 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:39 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:41 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:43 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:45 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:47 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:49 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:51 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:53 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:55 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:57 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
14:59 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
15:01 He will think that the director wasted a minute.
15:03 But, in a cooperative,
15:05 the junior artist will be the one to teach the dialogue.
15:07 "You tell me. He will teach you a lot."
15:09 "You tell me. Don't look there. Look here."
15:11 "Don't look there. Don't look here. Look here."
15:13 "Don't look at the camera. Don't look at the camera."
15:15 "Don't curse the director."
15:17 He will be the one to teach the dialogue.
15:19 "You tell me."
15:21 "No, no. I will tell you when you tell me."
15:23 "Okay, director."
15:25 "I can only tell you when you tell me."
15:27 "Don't look at me. Look at them."
15:29 "Don't look at me when we talk."
15:31 He will be the one to teach the dialogue.
15:33 He will be the one to teach the dialogue.
15:35 He will be the one to set the dialogue.
15:37 As a director, he would have known that
15:39 it would be easier to do this.
15:41 He would have known that it would be easier to do this.
15:43 I would keep repeating it.
15:45 He would be the one to teach the dialogue.
15:47 "Look here. Don't look at the camera. Don't look at the camera."
15:49 "Don't look at the camera. Don't look at the camera."
15:51 He would be the one to help me.
15:53 He would be the one to help me.
15:55 But, he would be the one to be the artist
15:57 in the frame and take.
15:59 No matter how many times he would ask me,
16:01 he would say, "It would be better if you get on the crane."
16:03 "Look here. I am getting on the crane."
16:05 He would say that.
16:07 He would say that in a fun and sporty way.
16:09 He would say that in a fun and sporty way.
16:11 "I know what you are expecting.
16:13 "Look here. I am getting on the crane."
16:15 He would not ask me for a single time.
16:17 He would not ask me for a single time.
16:19 He would just walk and
16:21 someone would come behind him.
16:23 He would not ask me for a single time.
16:25 He would not ask me for a single time.
16:27 He would just walk and walk.
16:29 It was a blessing.
16:31 He would be the artist in the frame.
16:33 He would be the artist in the frame.
16:35 When you were preparing for the film,
16:37 when you were preparing for the film,
16:39 when you were preparing for the film,
16:41 did anyone ask you?
16:43 Did anyone ask you?
16:45 Did anyone ask you?
16:47 When a person does it for the first time,
16:49 everyone expects it.
16:51 Did anyone ask you?
16:53 Did anyone ask you?
16:55 I had that mindset from the beginning.
16:57 I had that mindset from the beginning.
16:59 I had that mindset from the beginning.
17:01 I had that mindset from the beginning.
17:03 I thought that my story would satisfy everyone.
17:05 I thought that my story would satisfy everyone.
17:07 There are many good and bad films
17:09 when it comes to romance.
17:11 When it comes to romance.
17:13 But this film would be a good place.
17:15 It would be good that the writing
17:17 would be opposite to the other.
17:19 When I asked for the first half,
17:21 I was like, "Am I not a good actor?"
17:23 I was like, "Am I not a good actor?"
17:25 I was like, "Am I not a good actor?"
17:27 But the audience expects something.

17:39 When I saw the trailer,
17:41 it was like a revenge story.
17:43 It was like a thriller.
17:45 Thriller is engaging.
17:47 We have seen many revenge stories.

22:37 I have tried to show some areas which I have not shown in the film.
22:39 How did you write the story for the film?
22:45 We cannot keep real incidents like this.
22:47 We should not keep people's references in such stories.
22:49 We should keep people's references in such stories.
22:51 We should keep people's references in such stories.
22:53 We should keep people's references in such stories.
22:55 'Siren' is a real story and inspiration.
22:57 I cannot tell that news outside.
22:59 I read a newspaper.
23:01 When I was asked where 'Siren' came from,
23:03 I was reading a newspaper.
23:05 I was reading a newspaper.
23:07 I was thinking how it would be if it was a real story.
23:09 That newspaper gave me inspiration.
23:11 Basically, writing requires inspiration.
23:13 Basically, writing requires inspiration.
23:15 Where does inspiration come from?
23:17 You will get it if you keep reading and searching.
23:19 But we cannot search for it.
23:21 We will keep doing something and we will get it.
23:23 I thought that I should do a story for this spark.
23:25 I thought that I should do a story for this spark.
23:27 When I did this story and did the research for the jail episode,
23:29 I thought that it would suit the character.
23:31 I thought that it would suit the character.
23:33 If we want to know 100 things,
23:35 we cannot keep it on the hero.
23:37 We see 100 people.
23:39 One person is short, one person is tall, one person is dark.
23:41 We cannot keep everything on the hero.
23:43 What do we need?
23:45 If we write all these,
23:47 we will create a person.
23:49 We reject what we want.
23:51 We write a script and it will be a proper play.
23:53 You have worked with many directors.
23:55 You have worked with many films.
23:57 When you write a film for a director,
23:59 and when you write a film for your own director,
24:01 how would that conflict be?
24:03 As a director or as a writer?
24:05 When I am a writer,
24:07 there will be a lot of discussion.
24:09 Whatever I write,
24:11 I write according to their wants.
24:13 They would have conceived a scene.
24:15 They would have thought of it as a director.
24:17 When I write,
24:19 I have to meet up with them.
24:21 I have to meet up with their expectations.
24:23 But, I don't know if it will be my uniqueness or my writing style.
24:25 I might want to present something.
24:27 I will keep trying to meet up with them.
24:29 Sometimes, it will happen in the first draft.
24:31 Sometimes, it will happen in the second draft.
24:33 There is a scene that happened in the first draft.
24:35 There is a scene that happened in the shooting spot.
24:37 There is a scene that happened in the shooting spot.
24:39 It will be good.
24:41 If you keep it in your mind,
24:43 you can't try to convey it.
24:45 You have to try to write it.
24:47 But, when I am here,
24:49 I have already written it.
24:51 I have fixed it.
24:53 I will change it.
24:55 I will tell you about that scene.
24:57 Sir,
24:59 I will talk in dialogues.
25:01 Just give me a walk.
25:03 I took my calls as a director on the spot.
25:05 I forgot that I am a writer.
25:07 I am a director.
25:09 I am a writer.
25:11 I had to take some calls as a director.
25:13 It was easy.
25:15 It was easy for me because I had written it.
25:17 It was easy for me to match it.
25:19 I will match it.
25:21 I will put it in the O.P.
25:23 It was easy for me to match it.
25:25 What is the challenge
25:27 in being a writer?
25:29 If you are a writer and a director,
25:31 you have to handle both the crafts.
25:33 If you are an editor and a director,
25:35 a cameraman and a music director,
25:37 how will it be challenging?
25:39 When writing and direction
25:41 merge,
25:43 there are both positive and negative.
25:45 I think it is simple.
25:47 I did research on this story.
25:49 I liked it a lot.
25:51 I got a chance to direct it.
25:53 I definitely handle a different genre.
25:55 I handle a different backdrop.
25:57 If I don't know the backdrop,
25:59 I will definitely keep a writer who knows it.
26:01 It is a different craft.
26:03 There is no need to merge it.
26:05 We can dream of it individually.
26:07 I don't think we should merge it.
26:09 I want an answer from a writer
26:13 and a director.
26:15 I am very curious.
26:19 How do I separate the two?
26:21 The recent films
26:23 are very good.
26:25 I want to see if the second half
26:27 could have been better.
26:29 We are asking the audience.
26:31 Are you a writer or a director?
26:33 I don't know what to say.
26:37 Will they not do this in the future?
26:39 The second half is not good.
26:43 I am a writer.
26:45 Are you a writer or a director?
26:47 I don't know if I can say this.
26:51 If I am going to tell a story,
26:53 if I am going to tell a story to an artist,
26:55 and if I am going to prepare a story,
26:57 we will do a good job in the first half.
26:59 If you are the producer,
27:01 I will inspire you in 10 minutes.
27:03 I will make you like it.
27:05 The first half will be ready.
27:07 In the second half,
27:09 we will try to do better.
27:11 We will try to do better in the producer's meeting,
27:13 in the hero's meeting.
27:15 Maybe the first half will be clear.
27:17 In the second half,
27:19 we will say something.
27:21 It will be good.
27:23 We will do it well.
27:25 But in writing,
27:27 we will fine tune the first half.
27:29 We will not fine tune the second half.
27:31 This is as a writer.
27:33 We will have a link for this and that.
27:35 We will start shooting.
27:37 We will decide the date.
27:39 If we don't get the proper time,
27:41 we will miss the writing.
27:43 As a writer,
27:45 we will take the time to write.
27:47 We will discuss everything openly.
27:49 We will discuss the first half and the second half.
27:51 We will raise questions like why it is going down.
27:53 We will discuss it properly.
27:55 When it plays, it will be better.
27:57 We will talk a lot in the first half.
27:59 We will talk a lot in the first half.
28:01 We have that in the first half.
28:03 We will keep talking.
28:05 But when we keep talking, the film will start.
28:07 We will have less time to talk in the second half.
28:09 As a writer, I think it will be good
28:11 if we spend time in the second half.
28:13 As a director,
28:15 we have a mindset that
28:17 we will reveal the story in the first half.
28:19 We will set up ideas.
28:21 We will create a building for a conflict.
28:23 We will reveal it there.
28:25 We have a structure.
28:27 I think that structure will be a little difficult.
28:29 It should be engaging.
28:31 The engaging moments in the film
28:33 should be properly placed
28:35 in the four places.
28:37 I don't think it is wrong
28:39 to say that the second half is for the audience.
28:41 When the second half starts,
28:43 the audience will sit down to see when it ends.
28:45 They have a different mindset in the first half.
28:47 When the second half starts,
28:49 they will sit down to see when it ends.
28:51 Since they have a mindset that it will end,
28:53 we try to take them to a place
28:55 where they don't want to end.
28:57 We try to take them to a place
28:59 where they don't want to end.
29:01 We all try.
29:03 We all try 100%.
29:05 Sometimes it gets missed.
29:07 Sometimes it works out.
29:09 You have given a very honest answer.
29:11 You have given a very honest answer.
29:13 That's what I'm afraid of.
29:15 In this film, there are many revenge stories.
29:21 We have seen many such stories in films.
29:23 What will be there for the audience
29:25 beyond that?
29:27 It will definitely be an all-together film.
29:29 It's been a long time
29:31 since we saw an all-together film.
29:33 If you say a genre in a film,
29:35 it will be crime thriller.
29:37 It will be a fun, comedic film.
29:39 It will be an action film.
29:41 But for Sairan,
29:43 it will be an all-together film
29:45 that is entertaining
29:47 and a fun thriller.
29:49 This is very rare.
29:51 I think everyone will enjoy it.
29:53 If you go with friends,
29:55 if you like thrillers,
29:57 it will inspire you.
29:59 But when you see it as a parent,
30:01 you will see the family values.
30:03 I have talked about this for a long time.
30:05 But I have tried to talk about it majorly
30:07 as a father's character.
30:09 I have tried to talk about it as a father's daughter.
30:11 It will be very emotional.
30:13 So, it will not be a genre.
30:15 It will be an all-together film.
30:17 I have presented it as an all-age category,
30:19 as a family, as a friend.
30:21 I have presented it as an all-together film.
30:23 I think everyone will be happy
30:25 if they watch it together.
30:27 I think it's a film that everyone should watch.
30:29 One last question.
30:31 You recently watched a film
30:33 that you really liked.
30:35 What was your impression of it?
30:37 Was it average?
30:39 Did you feel like it was average?
30:43 It was a very good film.
30:47 I watched it and
30:49 I suddenly remembered it.
30:51 I called him and talked to him.
30:53 I also said that it was a bad film.
30:55 When you watched it on screen,
30:57 did you feel that it was not
30:59 a good film for a theatre?
31:01 I don't have to say that.
31:03 But, did you feel that way?
31:05 I am an audience.
31:07 I don't feel that it was bad.
31:13 I feel that it could have been done better.
31:15 The audience will say that it was bad.
31:17 I think we should think about
31:19 how we could have done it better.
31:21 I have felt that way in some films.
31:23 I have felt that it could have been
31:25 followed up better.
31:27 I don't remember the film I liked.
31:31 I don't remember.
31:33 I have been watching 'Siren' recently.
31:37 I keep watching it.
31:39 I have it in my mind.
31:41 But, I don't remember.
31:43 Even before the interview,
31:45 you were busy with 'Siren'.
31:47 You have spoken about 'Siren'
31:51 as a director and writer.
31:53 'Siren' is a big success.
31:57 I wish you a successful film.
31:59 Thank you so much for joining us.
32:00 Thank you.
