நந்தலாலா (2010)

Curiosità

Nandalala is a 2010 Indian Tamil-language road drama film written and directed by Mysskin. He himself plays the lead role, alongside newcomer Ashwath Ram and Snigdha Akolkar. The film, which is produced by Ayngaran International and scored by Ilaiyaraaja, is based on the 1999 Japanese film Kikujiro, and partly inspired from Mysskin's life. It illustrates the road journey of a mentally challenged adult and an eight-year-old schoolboy, both in search of their respective mothers.

Production

After Mysskin had completed and released his directorial debut Chithiram Pesuthadi in 2006, he wrote the script for Nandalala for eight months, which was supposed to be his next directorial. A. M. Rathnam was initially to produce the film, for which his son Ravi Krishna was to play the lead role.

Mysskin revealed, that despite demands from the producers, he made no compromises to Nandalala, in contrast to his previous ventures, as Nandalala was his "dream project". The lead character, Bhaskar Mani, was initially supposed to be around 20 years old; however, as no actor, including Vikram, was willing to take the role and Mysskin decided to play the character, he changed the age to 27 to make it more suitable.
