I'm bringing the internet style of filmmaking to my film: Ken Royson

Kavin
and
Priyanka Mohan
.
'I have directed a lot of music videos. Because of that, I think I can technically pull off this film easily, as it's in my ground. I can also play with VFX and the new Internet style of filmmaking, as the film is a fantasy,' says Ken.
'Nowadays, I think people like to see heartwarming and positive films. So, I wanted to do a film in this genre rather than action.
Films belonging to the fantasy romcom genre have come out a lot in Tamil, but mine will be more musical,' he elaborates.
Coming from a dance and music background, Ken shares that he wanted to do something 'poppy, vibrant and cool' for his debut film. 'This one will be a new-age romance drama.

Elaborating on why he opted for Kavin and Priyanka, he states, 'There are very few young heroes in Tamil who can do this role. The script demands a boy next door who can emotionally connect with the younger audience. And Kavin was my first choice. I also thought Kavin and Priyanka's pairing would be good. I particularly like her performance in Doctor and her dance in Golden Sparrow .'
The film's shooting starts in October, he informs.
Ken further says he will bring in his experience in directing music videos into the music of the film, which will be composed by OfRo. 'I'm doing everything to crack situations in the script itself to make the best music videos. The film will feature songs of Asal Kolaar and several independent artistes,' he states.
He signs off by stating that even though he has ventured into direction, he is still open to helming music videos as well.
'I won't be directing any music videos until this film is done, but after that, I will be back to directing music videos as well. In fact, I hope to do music videos all my life,' he concludes.

Bigg Boss Malayalam 7 Promo on 'Pengalootty Paasam' sparks hilarious reactions from former contestants
Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7's promotional content is creating buzz, especially a promo that playfully mocks the 'Pengalootty Paasam' tactic. Former contestants like Sai Krishna, Sijo John, and Nandana are engaging in playful banter, hinting at past gameplay strategies. The promo references favoritism shown in Season 6, sparking reactions and anticipation for a bolder, more self-aware season. As the countdown to Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 nears its end, the makers are pulling no punches with their promotional content. The latest promo, taking a cheeky dig at the much-criticized 'Pengalootty Paasam' (brother-sister bonding tactic), has become a talking point, not just among fans, but also among former contestants who seem to know exactly who the joke is on. The promo subtly (or rather, not so subtly) mocks contestants who use emotional familial bonds to gain favor and sympathy in the game. With lines clearly hinting at past house dynamics, the video has stirred a wave of reactions on social media, especially from those who were part of similar gameplay strategies. In the comment section of the promo, Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 6 contestants Sai Krishna , Sijo John, and Nandana were spotted playfully trolling each other, acknowledging the reference. It all began with former contestant Resmin Bai, who tagged the trio and teasingly asked if they were enjoying the promo. Nandana responded with a cheeky 'thank you,' while Sai Krishna wondered if these pointed promos would translate into actual interventions on the show, asking, 'Will Mohanlal finally teach a lesson this time?' Adding to the banter, Sijo tagged Abhishek and Sibin, trying to figure out who the mysterious third character in the promo was, further fuelling speculation and laughs. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Enjoy 100% Pure New Zealand and fly Air New Zealand Fly Air New Zealand Undo Even Sijo's wife Linu joined in the fun, taking a lighthearted dig at the so-called 'Ettayimaar' (elder brothers) club that the trio was previously criticized for being part of. For context, in Season 6, both Sijo and Sai Krishna came under fire for allegedly showing favoritism toward Nandana during a key task, granting her special privileges that raised questions about fairness. With the grand premiere of Bigg Boss Malayalam 7 set for tomorrow at 7 PM, it's clear the show is already delivering entertainment before even opening its doors. If the promos are anything to go by, fans can expect a bolder, more self-aware season with plenty of drama and unexpected turns.

'Son of Sardaar 2' faced a major weekend drop, collecting Rs 1.76 crore on Day 2, totaling Rs 8.51 crore. Despite lower openings than Ajay Devgn's earlier films, it outperformed 'Maa'. The comedy sequel, postponed to avoid clashing with 'Saiyaara,' features a chaotic plot set in Scotland. Yesterday, movie enthusiasts had a diverse selection at the box office as 'Saiyaara', starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, continued its successful run. Joining the fray were two new releases: 'Dhadak 2', featuring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, and 'Son Of Sardaar 2', with Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur . While 'Saiyaara' maintains its strong performance from previous weeks, early trends indicate that comedy is currently outperforming romance. 'Son Of Sardaar 2' is showing a stronger opening, edging towards a double-digit earning mark, while 'Dhadak 2' experienced a relatively slow start on its opening Saturday. 'Son of Sardaar 2' day 2 collections update According to Sacnilk, 'Son Of Sardaar 2' collected approximately Rs 7.25 crore on Day 1. Now, according to the updated numbers, the film as of now has collected around 2.5 core on Saturday. Taking the total collection of the Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur starrer to Rs. 9.75 crore.
