Veteran film director K Balachander launched the audio of 'Dhanam', a movie directed by Siva, in Chennai on Monday. The film stars Sangeetha in the lead role.
The movie has musical score by Ilayaraja and cinematography by late Jeeva. The who's who of the industry including Tamil Film Producers Council president Rama Narayanan, producers Muralitharan, Anbalaya Prabhakaran, Khaja Mohideen and Fefsi Vijayan were among those present on the occasion.
Speaking on the occasion, Balachander said, Siva served as camera assistant to me for some time. When he informed me that he is making a movie titled 'Dhanam', I was surprised. After watching the entire movie, I am convinced that he can handle intrinsic themes really well'
Urging film makers to be confident about their movies, Balachander said, 'when he made 'Arangetram' a couple of decades ago, a section of people opposed the theme. It worked out in favor of the film as it completed a 100-day run'.
'Dhanam too is a movie based on such a sensitive theme and hope it does well at the box office', he added.
