On the sets: The climax shot of Annun Innum Ennum and it was touching!

This blog is again on  Annum Innum Ennum movie about which I wrote a few days back has a path breaking story line.

Rajesh Nair and Usha Rajesh have put their soul into the movie being released under the banner of Vaya Films. The story is about a couple who got married 20 years back and another couple who got married very recently. The story revolves around how husbands lose interest in their wives, look for greener pastures and..... Ah! Well, I am not supposed to give away the story. It is for you to go to the theatres in August and watch the movie :)

On the sets I happened to meet Rekha, the Malayalam actor who did blockbusters like "Aye Auto" (1990), "Dasharatham" with Mohanlal a few years back. Rekha is playing the role of the wife to actor, producer and television anchor Siddique (whose movie career started in late 10980's). She has a bold shade to her character with who many wives will identify with. She takes off the facade of her husband and brings out the cheater in him! I did see the shot taken for the climax of the movie and the entire unit applauded actor Rekha's extremely emotional and bold delivery of her dialogues. Very touching! :)

In the movie, Jishnu Raghavan, B.Tech from NIT Calicut, son of veteran actor Raghavan and got himself launched with the super hit Malayalam film "Nammal" (2002). He comes with a very new and different look (all hairs J) is married to actor Radhika, who shot to fame with her character Razia in movie "Classmates" 2006. Jishnu's character is a writer who shot to fame with his first novel but fails to take off after his initial fame.

His wife works in a private firm and runs the household on her own. She admires and sees a perfect man in her boss played by Nishaan, who made his debut in Malayalam movie "Ritu". In fact, Nishaan character has a gray shade too which comes out in the later part of the movie. Jishu's character too gets drawn away from his wife to their new neighbor played by the glamorous Tashu Kaushik, joining Malayalam films through Annum Innum Ennum after making a mark in Tollywood and a stint in Bollywood.

In short, Annum Innum Ennum talks about man-woman chemistry, wife-husband trust (or betrayal), how what is seen is not the obvious and all is not always well in your neighbor’s house (or with his wife) ;).

To see how Rajesh Nair and team (includes friends like Shivan G Nair, Jolly Johnson who know each other from their Rotaract days) have woven these characters along with roles played by senior actors like Ashokan, Thilakan, Salim Kumar amongst others, you should go and WATCH the movie in theatres in the month of August.

This movie will answer a few questions we ask each other, ourselves about the sanctity of marriage, so called trust between partners and why one should understand we are all married to our partners for a reason... reason could be many and any... yet Then, Now and Forever... Annum, Innum, Ennum... with every generation, it is the same cycle of life... life of lies... life of realization and life moves on!

Today when all of us say "I love you" to our partners… some silently vow "I will lie to you"... Watch Annum Innum Ennum in August! :) :) Rest on the silver screen…

Saw your blog when a friend shared your post "From A Landlord to Homeless". read all your blogs in one go. Guess 2009 was your most 'happy' year considering the number of posts per year and the frequency of the word happiness. Really good writing and taste. Keep writing.
