‘Ayan’: Team

We all are now aware that after Suriya's 'Varanam Aayiram' with Goutham Menon. Suriya will next be seen in 'Ayan'.

'Ayan' will see Suriya and 'Kalloori' fame Tamanna playing the main characters. This film will be directed by K.V. Anand and the cinematography for this film will be by M.S. Prabhu. It worthy to say that it was K.V. Anand who was responsible for the cinematography of the superstar's super grosser 'Sivaji-The Boss'.

Now, what many are not aware is that K.V. Anand and M.S. Prabhu have worked as juniors to ace cinematographer and national award winner P.C. Sriram who has been a mentor to some of the top cinematographers in the Indian film industry, some of whom include the director of this film K.V. Anand, Tirru and Jeeva, the director of 'Unnale Unnale' who is now no more.

Both the friends have tasted success and are on their journey to more success. With this film 'Ayan' the two disciples of a great master will be getting together.

Let us hope that this film brings some new ideas to direction as well as cinematography.

Surya’s trip to South Africa

Actor Surya's next venture for AVM Productions commenced recently amidst much fanfare. Titled Ayan, this film is directed by cinematographer-turned-director K.V. Anand. The team will fly down to South Africa to shoot a song sequence with Surya and his on-screen pair Tamanna. Sources say that the director has already done his homework by scouting for good locations in those areas.

Ayan is about a 23-year-old youth trying to meet his goals in life. It would be interesting to see how Surya has toned himself to fit into the role as insiders say that he has taken extra efforts to shed weight to look that young.
