First STAR from South to hit OTT- all info

 




Called the Natural Star, Nani’s film V is the first STAR film that was meant for theaters , but hits the OTT platform from the South. . The Nani- director Mohana Krishna combo had delivered a blockbuster Gentleeman and there were high expectations as it was Nani’s 25th film and that too he plays the baddie. Mohana Krishna reveals why the film was shot in 5 States and Thailand. Why the title V ?  Nivetha Thomas on her role in V.

What does V stand for ?

"The film deals with a character named Vishnu. Usually, psychopaths leave a signature, right? I wanted some sort of a signature for the psychopath killer that would be a short stroke. The idea came to me much after completing the film," Indraganti said

On the need for many locations ?

Mohana Krishna shared that, "The movie was shot in 5 states and 1 international location — Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Goa, Himachal Pradesh and Maharashtra- and in Thailand. Our intent was to create a consistent visual experience and color palette for our viewers - generally you will see inconsistencies in the color palette. From night to day shots we wanted the entire grid to be consistent. We therefore took a lot of care in the costume designing, in production design, the kind of clothes we want to avoid, the kind of colors we want to avoid, and it had to match with completely different locations. Goa is completely warm, and Bombay is both humid and warm, and Thailand is tropical while Manali which is extremely cold – across these many locations and climates, we wanted to create a visually seamless experience for our viewers.

He further added that, "We had to match all these looks and make it a consistent grid which was a creative challenge. But it also lent the story a certain skin and tone which it demanded. The story unravels over a long period of time. I wanted people to feel that they have read a novel and experienced these locations and experiences vividly. Shooting across these widely different locations helped us do that."

About the story aand Nivetha on her role

The movie is a romantic thriller where a cop falls in love with a crime writer and everything is perfect until a killer challenges the cop with a puzzle to solve. In the movie, Nivetha plays the role of a crime novelist, a part the actor found immensely "relatable".

"When I was reading the brief of the character, I thought she was extremely relatable. I knew people exactly like her but may be not as weird. I could see certain traits in her which I have too but people don't know."

"She is unapologetically herself. She's a self-made woman with a goal to become a crime novelist. Her method, her investigation is quite twisted. It was a wholesome role," she added.

Aditi Rao Hydari, Jagapathi Babu, Vennela Kishore, Nassar among others have played pivotal roles in V.

V will be streaming on Amazon Prime Video from September 5.
