NDTV Imagine Film Company partners with Wide Angle Creations to produce Tamil film
NEW DELHI: NDTV Imagine Film Company has joined hands with South-based production house Wide Angle Creations to produce a Tamil action film ‘Madhurai Sambhavam’.
In addition, NDTV Imagine Film Company has partnered with various other film makers and currently has over 30 projects in various stages of development. The film company also plans to produce and release six to eight films in a year.
NDTV Imagine Film Company director Sameer Nair, “Film making is a collaborative effort, we are extremely happy to have partnered with Wide Angle Creations to mark our foray in the Tamil Film Industry. The team at Wide Angle Creations has created some very good and award winning films in the past, and we are looking forward to a long and fruitful relationship.”
Currently in the production stage, the film stars actors like Harikumar, Anuya Bhagwat and Karthika in the lead.
The action-based film is being shot in the city of Madurai and is being directed by Youreka who has also written the story, screenplay, dialogues and lyrics of the movie. The music of the film has been composed by John Peter.
“The Tamil film industry is seeing an increased level of participation from corporates who bring with them a much broader platform via which our movies are presented. In NDTV Imagine we saw a likeminded partner who not only understood the sensibilities but is equally passionate about cinema. As we get into action with ‘Madhurai Sambhavam’ we have simultaneously started nurturing high concept entertainers with NDTV Imagine. We could hope to see an interesting bouquet of movies rolling out in time to come,” said Wide Angle Creations partner George Pius.
South-based production house Wide Angle Creations is managed by two partners, Suresh Balaje and George Pius.
