Kanthaswamy in Mexico

The Kanthaswamy team met the press on February 16 to share its memorable trip to Mexico to identify the locations for the movie. Producer Kalaipuli S. Thanu, director Susi Ganesan and hero Vikram addressed the media persons and briefed them about their trip to Mexico.

The trip was eventful with many surprising developments including Thanu being made as the Honorary Council General of Mexico in Chennai by the Mexican government. In another interesting development, the Mexican government has agreed to make a film in Spanish which will be co-produced by Kalaipuli Thanu, directed by Susi Ganesan and featuring 'Chiyaan' Vikram in the lead. All the other actors will be from Mexico.

The civil war conditions in Kenya prevented the 'Kanthaswamy' team from going there for shooting as per the earlier plans, informed Thanu. The producer informed that the team then switched over to Mexico for the shooting. It will be the first time that an Indian film will be shot in Mexico.

The Mexican authorities were very much impressed with the trailer of 'Kanthaswamy' and immediately agreed to give all the support and help for our film to be shot there.

Director Susi Ganeshan told the reporters about how they went as delegates of Tamil cinema and got a warm welcome from the Mexican government. They were provided with a chopper to find the right locations to shoot. The team also comprised of art director Thotta Tharani and cameraman Ekambaram.

Interestingly, the Mexican officials, including women, found that Vikram 'looked like a Hollywood star'. Vikram impressed them by talking some words in Spanish (the official language) which he picked up in 30 minutes from a 'Learn Spanish' booklet. He also danced with professional Salsa dancers.

Earlier, a video showing the Mexico trip of 'Kanthaswamy' team was screened.
