Vaanam Vassapadum, 2004
Director: P C Sreeram
This is the first high definition digital feature film made in India.
Nowadays, whatever technical developments take place in a country like the United States reach us too. When I got this offer from a Japanese called Sakamoto, I accepted it because I wanted to learn a new technology. I also had a script ready with me.
But it was a very long learning process for me. It took me two years to complete the film. Certain things like lenses were in the process of being manufactured and that added to the delay.
But I can proudly say that I used a technology that is being used in the US and Europe. The future is in high definition films. At the end of the exercise, I feel quite fresh and new.
I will release the film in digital format in Tamil and Telugu in August.
