Back to 2015…
After the release of Premam…
I was happy when Joshi sir asked me about Premam making.
Sir Joshi: How did you shoot all the three periods?
Me : Sir all the three were shot in the style of each period.
Joshi sir: That different treatment is the reason.
Me: Thank you sir..
Sir how did you take Lalettan Mammukena Umm Vekana scene in No 20 Madras Mail?
Joshi sir: I approved the improvisation that Mohanlal put. I am mostly spontaneous and work. I want the location work, if not the artist's performance to excite.
Me: Sir, next question…I have seen films where Thilakan sir did not dominate in two movies. One is Godfather and then Naduvazhi.
Joshi Sir: Laughing… the elder asked Anantan's role. But somehow I felt that Madhu sir should play that role.
By that time, the venue of the function reached, sir, I and my brother-in-law Alvin Antony got out of the car.
Sir Joshi: See you, my dear.
Me: Thank you sir. Sir is the only one in the Indian film industry who asked for the making of this film. thank you sir Thank you sir then and now.
