G.V. Prakash in Bharathiraja's Annakodiyum Kodiveeranum



Veteran director Bharathiraja is back in the village atmosphere, doing what he does best! He is all set to begin his ambitious project Annakodiyum Kodiveeranum which will have Parthiban playing the lead role. The film will have Parvathy (of Poo fame) as the leading lady. Set in Madurai, Annakodiyum Kodiveeranum is a period film which runs through four decades: 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. The film will have Parthiban in a dual role with different get ups.
Now the latest buzz is that the director has roped in young composer G.V. Prakash as the music director for the project. Since music plays an important and has to reflect the respective periods, GV is currently doing research on the kind of folk/ rural music in these four decades. Interestingly, GV's uncle A.R. Rahman teamed up with the veteran for Kizhakku Cheemayilae in 1993, and now it's GV's turn.
Watch out for the Diwali Special Galatta Cinema issue for an exclusive interview with G.V. Prakash!
