The success of ‘Renigunta’ has made filmmaker Panneerselvam to start his next with the same team. Titled ‘Padhinettu Vayasu’, the movie will have Johnny of ‘Renigunta’ in the lead role.

Not just Johnny, but a majority of crew members who had worked for Panneerselvam’s maiden venture would form part of his second film too. “It is a love story, but with a uniqueness in it,” the director says.

He adds: “Padhinettu Vayasu will be a straight contrast to Renigunta. The story is inspired by a real life incident happened to one of my close friends. The film will be presented in a different backdrop.”

Prod him about the storyline, he says, “falling in love is an inevitable part of any human being’s life. But each one would have a different experience. My film would throw light on one such love affair.”

On complaints that ‘Renigunta’ was full of blood and violence, Panneerselvam says, “a film about young criminals should have violence. Only then the impact would be felt by the audience.”
