Fourth of July is not just an important day for Americans (Independence Day), but also a huge day for Sasikumar, the debutante director of the film 'Subramaniapuram'. On this day, he would realize his dream of general audiences flocking to theaters to watch his recreation of the eighties in the film 'Subramaniapuram'.
A former associate of directors Bala and Ameer, Sasikumar reportedly has put in an inspired effort to weave the tale of five educated and yet jobless youngsters in the Madurai locality of 'Subramaniapuram'. The world of these doting youth is heavily influenced after a girl comes into their lives. Do they still remain friends or does selfish desire make them fall apart? This is the crux of the story.
The youth are played by Jai (of 'Chennai -600028' fame), Ganja Karuppu, new faces Mari, Visithran and the director himself. Swathi plays the heroine and director Samuthirakani has been showcased as the villain.
The film industry is abuzz with the fact that the director kept the story a secret and did not even reveal it to his cast. He thrived on getting spontaneous reactions from his cast and says this surprise element has done a world of good for the film.
The movie could be a welcome relief for all those enthusiasts who'd like to see life in the eighties all over again.
