Vetri Maaran speaks on Aadukalam

Dhanush is quite happy to be working with Vetri Maran again in Aadukalam, as he is the director who gave him a big break in Polladhavan. The actor earlier stated that he felt a positive vibration working with Vetri Maaran on the sets of Aadukalam. He also expressed confidence that the film will definitely turn out as successful as their previous venture Polladhavan.

“We started Aadukalam in February 2009 and it was completed in March 2010. Now the CG (computer graphics) work is going on at Ocher Studios. Aadukalam is not a period film but very much a contemporary, mainstream picture. When we chose Madurai as the appropriate backdrop for the script, we went to Madurai, stayed there and did research on its dialect and way of life,” the director said to a leading English daily.

“Aadukalam means arena or playing field. Life itself is a playing field where one has to play games for various reasons. The movie is about two generations and their ideologies. It can be categorised as having an ethnic, rural milieu with emphasis on Tamil identity. But it is not a regular Madurai film which deals with the culture and practices of people there. This is more about the sub-culture that prevails there,” he added.
