00:00I'm there in this thousand babies it's my first web series I've been in the
00:10industry as a commercial actor for so many years and when I was getting a lot
00:17of offers from web series format I came across this one when the director
00:22Najeeb Koya he's not here with us at this moment but when he told me about
00:29the story I was very intrigued I was shocked and that's how I wanted to do
00:34this in no matter whether any format but I had to be a part of it I thought and
00:39this is and that's how this whole thousand baby started took off and I'm
00:44also glad that it it was the producers were August cinemas and of course hot
00:52star is the backing up and it has come out very larger than expected that I
01:00expected the story is it's just because I've there in this I'm not saying it's
01:08the best story or it's not it's not a fiction it's not a horror but if you ask
01:13are these all there these elements everything is there but more than that
01:17it's something that it'll open your eyes at the end of it it will start you
01:24will start questioning yourself I'm sure that these kind of questions will arise
01:29and moreover this is not just a regional story format because this story according
01:36to my perception is an internationally understood story I feel because it's not
01:45happened in the place or anything it can it can get connected with all
01:50languages around the world globally and people will definitely arise questions
01:56for the rest of their life it is not a fiction but it is a fiction it is not a
02:02true story but the parts and elements can be possible to be a true story of
02:07course when I heard the subject I had a distant connection with it but I've
02:13never felt the truth about it so so many elements are there that's why it
02:19it is it has become this beautiful story and I'm glad that I'm a part of it
02:30yeah the story itself actually the director is a is known to me for you
02:37know since I came to cinema came to movies as an actor since then I know him
02:42and he has been a good friend and he called me up for this a tiny role in
02:48this series actually initially and which I I loved that part and I committed it
02:54later on he narrated the entire story to me and I was shocked you know I didn't
03:00expect that kind of a stuff from you know and a series being happening and
03:05something unheard of or the suspense element or whatever I haven't heard of
03:11it in anywhere I haven't seen in any other movies or any other any reference
03:15any minute reference of it and any other movies or web series or internationally
03:18any international movies for that matter so I was very excited about you know
03:23that that part and I asked him who is doing that kind of role that role so he
03:29said we are we are still in discussions and nothing has been finalized
03:33some big names in in discussion and later on after a while after a couple of
03:39days he called me up and said that and are you interested in doing it so that
03:43was it and I I would say nobody will say no to it I don't think any any actor
03:49would say no to it and when I talk about Thousand Babies this would be something
03:54that any lag language would want to remake in their their language and it's
04:00not chabon I and a Malayalam series near the keg I'm a lot it won't you won't
04:05look like it it doesn't look like a Malayalam series a regional series it
04:11looks very much national or even international and hamara matlab in
04:17Kochi we had a preview and the kind of feedback that we got we showed them
04:23three episodes and with all the film crews and plus the media the media is the
04:29first one to criticize on any bad thing that happens if
04:34problem they find it out very easily but we we had a very good crowd and they
04:40responding with you know they clapping for us after the third episode was the
04:46actual feedback that we got and we strongly believe that that's that's the
04:50truth and by today evening I mean tomorrow this this will start streaming
04:56and I believe everyone will love it
05:03actually for first of all I want to say that by hearing the story itself I mean
05:09like others so the story has been written by the Jim Coyote director and
05:15are also fun and after that by telling the story itself I am already in in this
05:22movie the narration of the director like it took time he will take time actually
05:27to narrate the story while that time itself you will be in because he will
05:33he will make us visualize the story and the feel he will give what he will give
05:39the details what all we want to fix in it and we want what all we want to
05:45visualize in it everything he will give us in detail so for me it's not that
05:50much difficult but the thing is while he is telling the story narrating so that
05:57good I want to give him back the same so in that way it was too hard so the
06:06workshop workshop we have what we have done is really good and every day we
06:11used to travel together and we will talk each other about this movie and this
06:16color palette the shot we want to take and he the for the thing he want from me
06:22is the pure quality and he told me that whatever equipments you want you just
06:27tell no compromise you want to do in this movie even if it's from other
06:34series and all from in India it's like too low budget I mean not in
06:42Malayalam industry but in other other industry so the thing is that that's the
06:48pretty hard thing for me I want to visualize it's too good
06:56so when you see a trailer we can't put the whole thing in a trailer there are
07:03just of many little little parts of the move of other web of our movie in it it
07:11is nothing connected to children much but if you ask if there is children's
07:16yeah there are children but at the same time there are mothers there are fathers
07:19there is police's everything is there included it's a treat basically this is
07:25a psychological crime thriller so it has to be treated in that way because when
07:32we when we are trying to make a psychological thriller it has to have
07:35elements of you know very shocking elements in it it has to feel that way
07:41we can't do comedy or action and calling it as a psychological thriller so as
07:46the name suggests the tagline suggests yeah all these are a part of it I'm sure
07:5190% of the audience love thriller movies and or thriller subjects and sitting at
07:58home and watching at your own space this will be a great treat I believe
