- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,September 29 2008]
Actor  director S J Suryah and music composer AR Rahman formed a wonderful team in Tamil cinema. They combined to render several musical hits in Tamil cinema including 'New' and 'A Aah'. Now their associates come together to forge a new team.
S J Suryah's associate Andrew Louis and Rahman's assistant Satheesh Chakravarthy team up for a movie titled 'Leelai'. Interestingly, the movie is being produced by Aascar Films V Ravichandran.
The movie is about the romance that blossoms between two software engineers working in a MNC. It would be entertaining and engrossing, says Andrew Louis. It is a hi-tech love story but would attract even people in villages, he adds.
The entire movie was shot in popular software company HCL. Even the employees of the company were prevented from carrying cameras and mobile phones to their company. But we managed to get the permission of senior officials from the company and shot the movie for over 100 days inside the company, preens the director.
The movie has cinematography by R Velraj. Shiva, who worked in several advertisement commercials is being introduced as hero. A popular model Mansi will play the female lead.
Santhanam plays the comedy part to provide the humour quotient for the movie. Editing is by V T Vijayan, art by Edward and lyrics by Vaali.
