  • Among the directors I've worked with, I've been most comfortable with Venkat Prabhu as he gave me the freedom to add my own inputs. I have been as comfortable working with Sundar sir as well because he encouraged improvisation. Also, he really enjoys watching his actors perform.

Kalakalappu Advance Booking from Tomorrow

Kalakalappu Advance Booking from Tomorrow

The advance ticket booking for Kalakalappu @ Masala Cafe directed by Sundar C opens from tomorrow. The film is a comedy caper from Sundar C starring Shiva, Vimal, Santhanam, Anjali and Oviya in lead roles. The film rides on comedy and Santhanam happens to be the biggest asset for the film.

Santhanam plays a role equal to that of a hero and his recent film 'Oru Kal Oru Kannadi' proves the point. Producers are keen in casting Santhanam in the movie whether the story demands or not. Kalakalappu promises to keep the audience in splits throughout the film. The film has been sold out in all areas and turned out to be a good profit for the producers. The film will hit the screens on May 11 and the promotions are happening in full swing.
