Wissenswertes

Rhythm is a 2000 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film written and directed by Vasanth and produced by V. Natarajan. The film stars Arjun and Meena in the lead roles with Jyothika, Ramesh Aravind, Lakshmi, Nagesh, and Manivannan in important roles. The music was composed by A. R. Rahman, while cinematography was predominantly handled by P. S. Vinod, and Sreekar Prasad edited the film. Rhythm released on 15 September 2000 and became a commercial success. It was also dubbed and released in Telugu under the same title.

Production

Originally announced with pre-release stills in websites in 1997, the film was four years in the making. Producer Pyramid Natarajan signed Vasanth for the project while he was working on Aasai (1995). P. S. Vinod was selected to make his debut as cinematographer instead of V. Manikandan, while the team also credited Arthur A. Wilson as an additional cinematographer and R. D. Rajasekhar was also given special thanks in the title card.

Vasanth hired Arjun as the lead actor at the producer's suggestion. Though Arjun was then known as an action hero, Vasanth felt he could cast him against type. Meena, who was supposed to star in Vasanth's Nee Pathi Naan Pathi was cast as the heroine for this film.

After a 15-day schedule in Mumbai, the unit shifted to various locations to picturise a song sequence and the song "Nathiye Nathiye" was shot at the locations of Mysore, the Shivanasamudra dam, and the Thriveni Sangama. The team also shot in South India in Chalakudy and Ooty, before the unit moved North to Haridwar, Badrinath and the Gangotri. Scenes were also shot at Juinagar Station in Navi Mumbai.

The film languished in production hell, with the producers reluctant to notify what was keeping the release delayed. The delay of the film led to Vasanth directing three other films in between Nerrukku Ner, Poovellam Kettuppar and Appu, as he waited for the release. At some point due to the long delay in its release, unconfirmed news was circulating that production had been shelved due to financial constraints.
