'I have directed a lot of music videos. Because of that, I think I can technically pull off this film easily, as it's in my ground. I can also play with VFX and the new Internet style of filmmaking, as the film is a fantasy,' says Ken.
'Nowadays, I think people like to see heartwarming and positive films. So, I wanted to do a film in this genre rather than action.
Films belonging to the fantasy romcom genre have come out a lot in Tamil, but mine will be more musical,' he elaborates.

Elaborating on why he opted for Kavin and Priyanka, he states, 'There are very few young heroes in Tamil who can do this role. The script demands a boy next door who can emotionally connect with the younger audience. And Kavin was my first choice. I also thought Kavin and Priyanka's pairing would be good. I particularly like her performance in Doctor and her dance in Golden Sparrow .'
The film's shooting starts in October, he informs.
Ken further says he will bring in his experience in directing music videos into the music of the film, which will be composed by OfRo. 'I'm doing everything to crack situations in the script itself to make the best music videos. The film will feature songs of Asal Kolaar and several independent artistes,' he states.
He signs off by stating that even though he has ventured into direction, he is still open to helming music videos as well.
'I won't be directing any music videos until this film is done, but after that, I will be back to directing music videos as well. In fact, I hope to do music videos all my life,' he concludes.
