- The Film Companion annual adda is back and this time we take it to Chennai. For our first-ever pan-India Filmmakers’ Adda, Anupama Chopra brought to the table Kamal Haasan (Vikram:- Producer), SS Rajamouli (RRR:- Director), Lokesh Kanagaraj (Vikram:- Director), Swapna Dutt (Sita Ramam:- Producer), Prithviraj Sukumaran (Jana Gana Mana:- Producer), and Gautham Vasudev Menon (Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu:- Director). These directors and producers who are the names behind some of 2022’s biggest and most successful films dissected what goes into making the mass entertainer, how they created some of the most iconic visuals in their films, how they measure risk, and the scenes which gave them sleepless nights.

We reached out to multiple creators from the Kannada industry who unfortunately couldn’t make time for us for this particular roundtable. But do stay tuned for exciting updates!
Ahh 😢!!!
What a missed opportunity.
I feel sad and at the same time a bit happy, atleast now Kannada creators are being considered for Round-table conversations ☺
A Prashanth Neel for this panel would have been perfect.
Still hyped up for the round-table great job FC bringing these illustrious talents under 1 roof and have a conversation.
Cheers.
Nowadays kannada industry giving more blockbuster, KGF2, Kantara, Charlie 777,
This year 2022 belongs to kannada industry......
@@vijaykumar-ud7fw Yeah 🙌
Hope 2022 is just the beginning for us. And give the Indian Audience more good films ☺
Prashanth neel or rakshith shetty or upendra will be the best choice for this from kannada industry
@@randyorton2093 This is 2022 edition I don't think Upendra Sir had any good releases this year.
As a Malayali, its an honour when Rajamouli garu praised the industry. ❤️
i mean its pretty obvious. Malayalam films have always had superior movies (in terms of stories and acting and script) when compared to other film industries in India for a long long time now..
The mid 60s-70s emergent art-house scene and the then new wave 80s golden era where art and commercial styles was successfully integrated while every other film industry couldn't even understand what it meant. The 2 Big Ms rise and peak with great writers-directors and supporting actors and now the 2010- present day New wave Renaissance. Only the 2000-2010 decade was dark days for us in the last 50 years or so when the 80s era started stagnating and rotting.
But yea otherwise if u strip the budget factor away Malayalam cinema has always been superior to others and Malayalees should be the last people surprised about it.
Malayalam movies and storytelling is truly amazing! Cinematography and Music are scintillating.
I am from ap, and i recently watched hridayam, it was amazing and daily I used to watch the movie clips atleast an hour, really it only possible with malayalis, hattsoff to u bros
Offcourse the best scripts comes from Malayalam. But due to exposure to worldwide contents nowadays I'm sure other movie industries will pickup as Kamal said from northeast hence, we cannot discount other movie industries.
@@rajgsrinivas ya true, but I don't mean to disrespect any film industry, if u mind this pls excuse me
There is a reason kamal hassan is called The Institution, the GOAT who has mastered every facet of Film Making 🔥🔥

Malayalam cinema should definitely get more exposure..it just saddens me that almost all my friends have never seen a Malayalam film, and they just loved the Hindi remake of "Drishyam" so much, i wanna show them there are plenty of masterpieces from Malayalam cinema they're missing out.
why not drop some suggestions here bro, maybe not many but a lot of people might read something here and read it.

Came here for SSR but i loved Prithvi Raj sir what a humble guy ♥️
Waiting for salaar

Felt the same
I’m not from Kerala, but I’m rooting for Malayalam Cinema and PrithviRaj’s pan India level success.
Go and see fafa's movie.
Malayalam movies are remake to other languages. So whole malayalam industry already in pan world
Hi brother I admit his vision as a director is splendid but as an actor he is terribly limited also what he does these days is mostly is selling whatever monetizable. He is a good businessman who associates himself with Karan Johar on one side and Hombale on another. Should not be considered as a successor to the Pioneers like KH or Mammootty. Hope this helps ( I'm from Kerala)
@@sravank5122 really agree with u brother Fafa makes more creative pieces even as a producer like Iyobbinte Pushthakam and Kumbalangi which never shy away from experimentation at the same time applicable to masses

This is a good talk filled with very intelligent and accomplished people overall amazing but 12:30 I don't understand how these very intelligent people cannot grasp that Hindi cinema encompasses a region of over 1.4 billion people including the Urdu speaking Pakistanis, Dari speaking Afghanis who grew up watching Bollywood cinema as the afghans had no large homegrown industry, Nepalis who similarly had no homegrown industry capable of competing with Bollywood and Bangladeshis who prefer to watch bollywood films over their own films...while all 4 of the southern industries have to compete for a region of 270 million... It's unfathomable how much more of an audience Hindi cinema has yet still these 4 smaller regional cinema industries are capable of producing films that are even bigger hits... Same with the "overseas" market he was talking about and how he was wondering how hindi cinema has captured it? Theirs over 18 million Hindi speakers outside of South Asia including overseas pakistanis and populations like Fiji or the millions of Punjabis and Biharis who were taken as indentured servants and are now large populations in South Africa, Trinidad, Guyana, Mauritius... The overseas population of South Indians outside of South Asia is barely a third of that. Their is no comparison it's insane how much the 4 regional cinemas are overperforming compared to how much Hindi cinema is underperforming.
@@debodatta7398Absolutely right. Though I would argue that the Southern base isn’t even 270 million. Unlike the north, there’s no common language that people from the South speak - they don’t understand each other’s languages though they are culturally similar.
What Rajamouli did to Telugu and Indian industry is unimaginable and it happened so quickly 😮
Definitely, I am engineering student but SS Rajamouli has made me interested in Marketing, I don't know how he Market's his film, When he had success with Bahubali 2, I thought this is his peak and then came RRR and literally changed the landscape of Indian Cinema, he made Global audience fans of Indian Cinema......
I cannot say he is Lucky but there is a Big plan he works very hardly so that all looks quick and easy to us.....
A great film maker but A damn great Marketing genius....🙌🙌
@@prasannaighe5188 absolutely true
Now everyone are trying to present their product as much as possible
And there this man comes in place every time he is just bringing stacks high and presenting his product as unique and as big as possible( And he will do all this him self along with his team without involving 3rd parties)
To be noted their was a master class by Shobu sir regarding bahubali 2 marketing you can watch it
@Netaji-The British Slayer Totally agreed

As a tamilan.i never skip Malayalam cinema in Ott..in a content wise malayalm film was extra ordinary..i love thallumala, RDX,i never skip every moment of these movies .and i watch 2 times on the netflix..2018,romancham can also nice . totally 2022 - 23 festivals carried out by malayalam cinema..i really loved it
Kamal sir , Rajamouli sir , GVM, Prithvi , Lokesh - All at one place 🔥
🔥🔥🔥

Why leave Swapna Dutt!? All together 👏👏
@@armanasa3956 she is a great producer but I like all these directors .
@@rajatkumarbeherait1313 I wonder what GVM is doing there as if he has given a good film this year. Honestly say did VTK do well? IF u r excited for VTK 2 then fine if not then the first part is an average!
Kamal Haasan is an Institution and Prithviraj is on a Mission.
Felt so proud when Prithvi mentioned about an Odia Film. The film is called 'Daman'. Recently, Anupam Kher bought the remake of another Odia Film Pratikshya and I cannot Emphasize how I have been wanting Odia Film industry to grow from mindless and remake films and make a name of its own. We as an Odia audience appreciate a Drishyam and Interstellar in the same breath. I hope a giant production company comes into play and increase the Odia Film Market and remove all the notions about Odisha as a state. HOPE!
I am a Telugu guy living in Chattisgarh whose half of the family settled in South Odisha, I really feel Odisha deserve better. So much natural resources, so much talent, beauty and still it is so backward and not at all in the mainstream media. I think small budget content driven films can put it in the center stage. Let's wish it happens soon.
Malayali here, came to the comment section exclusively to get the name of the Odia movie, thanks for that. We as audience have to support and spread the word in good quality content. Money will come, but the creators need our support. Looking forward to seeing good content coming out of Odia film industry!
Bro I have been trying to watch Daman but its available nowhere. Do you know where I can watch it?
Bro it will come in one or two dubbing language this month and release in theaters all over India...btw love from Odisha to kerla
I had had an Odia manager some years back, who would bash Tamils are language fanatics, outsider-haters and all (the kind of rhetoric that you often hear from the immatured lot) and one day I hit back stating "now you know why Tamil film industry is so popular and Odia film industry just lives on paper". He was taken aback and though he didn't retaliate with bad appraisals and all, but he did stop talking about that subject thereafter.
Welcome relief for me.
Kamal and Prithviraj, in one revolutionary script that is directed by Rajamouli would be the most amazing thing.
The sweetest person is Lokesh. What a kind man, Very politily sitting. Such a lovely person.
To tumne kya expect kiya tha ??

I am a Telugu citizen of India and i agree that Malayalam industry have best story tellers in india . Love prithvi raj and Jeetu Josef writings , keep it up 🙏🙏🙏🙏 #jaihind
Impressed by telugu citizen of India 👏👏👏
When north indan friends of mine praise south k movies south k movies I have to say them u watch Telugu Tamil cinema ....very few watch Malayalam cinema....but most of my telgu friends love Malayalam movies
I feel it should have been Fahad instead of Prithviraj for this interview....
Prithviraj not writing, he is an actor and director
what is telugu citizen lol ? It isn't even a country
It's surprising that nobody mentioned Drishyam as a pan Indian movie from Malayalam. All credits to Jeethu Joseph. And kudos to the confidence of Prithviraj to go on such a stage and vow before the greats that he ll put Malayalam cinema on the global map. Malayalam cinema deserves more heights and hope they stick on to their roots in that process. One of the Hardcore Malayalam cinema fan from tamilnadu and sure there are many of them out there reading this.
Drishyam doesnt make money outside kerala, drishyam 2 was ott release..
@sae i know .
the hindi version's co producers are mohan lal and antony പെരുമ്പാവൂർ
So I think the reason why drishyam is not mentioned and Kamal sir already said it is because, if you think of it like there was a trend since the 80s, where most of the amazingly hit tamil, telegu, hindi cinemas were actually first made in Malayalam. It always used to go in a chain Malyalam - Tamil - Telugu - Hindi and they'd go on to be huge hits.
Drishyam was discussed during BR's Mega Round Table Interview. Anurag Kashyap mentioned that it was remade in Chinese & collected 200 million dollars! 🤯
Once Rajamouli Sir did mention that he truly admires the Drishyam Franchise and that he thinks that is great work

As a tamilian I love kamal sir, and he done so many experiments in Indian film.... Especially nowadays the Kannada industry is doing a awesome films... It's really sad that no one is talking about 777 Charlie... That one movie is stole the heart's of our nation... Rakshit shetty is an natural actor.. Kudos to Kannada industry..
Rakshit shetty it is.yeah we needed one representative.We have many good movies here that needs good recognition across.thanks for appreciating our industry.
Yea a movie about a western dog breed being praised while Karnataka native breeds get beaten and killed in the streets...please stop felicitating the western dog so much and pass some love to our homegrown Indian breeds....

This interview is all the reasons why Bollywood is a sinking ship. Extremely Few directors in Bollywood sort of have clarity, respect and awareness of what these film makers have.
Thank you Film companion for this podcast
There are definitely directors with vision but Bollywood is very risk averse. The producers in Bollywood don't like betting their money on anyone that doesn't guarantee a win. Otherwise, directors like Anurag Kashyap and Anubhav Sinha can make some great cinema if they get backing from the money people. But people don't give them money and don't trust their conviction after just one big failure.

Also the bollywood audience too. Every industry has good and bad films. But Bollywood audience instead of supporting the good films they nitpick bad films and troll it. Audience should also stop being over judgemental when it comes to Bollywood.
@@debodatta7398This is a brilliant point.
Have been on S S Rajamouli videos for the last couple of weeks. The man is truly a class apart from any other Indian filmmaker that I know of. I have watched extensive interviews of Spielberg as well, and I think that they are both cut from the same cloth of thought process about cinema, passion for movies, continually evolving craft and story telling ability.

Malayalam will come up with something.
We will. Prithviraj says it then it's definitely going to happen🙌 he has kept all the promises he did🔥
@S A I think can make a one off here and there.. Just like a Tamil industry can make a feel good movie. But yeah, if they make a successful Magnum Opus and all the others fall into the cycle of making money leaving their trademark sensibility then it can be trouble.
They have already done it ...Drishyam is just beyond anyone's imagination & still one of the best of best d best but who knows someone might direct a big film in terms of box office collections it's just a matter of time & Jeetu Joseph is already ready with Drishyam 3 so let's hope for d best 🤞
@S A I totally understand your point... But let me tell you, in my little experience of whatever Indian cinema is... Malayalam cinema just need one big film to give it a positioning.
Rorschach and Churuli are good films no doubt but by going by today's market dynamics the collection may not be that much.. Understanding majority Indian audience wants to hoot and cheer but "for a reason" (by the way I'm watching Kooman right now 30 minutes in)
Give them 1 such film to draw you in, let it be the eye puller and then anyway you have these good rooted movies which will sustain them to watch Malayalam movies.
Why do we want to emulate a Korean cinema.. If an RRR tries to be something else, hasn't the authenticity of the masala genre being wronged??

@@deepakmk9594 No he is a very good actor. Only thing is that directors must make good use of him and control him. He is the best young actor currently in Malayalam along with Fahadh.
Prithviraj has found the formula to make Malayalam films more mainstream. He is my favourite actor amongst the current lot across all industries for multitasking. I am not from Kerala.

Wow, watched this interview without any break. Kmal sir is an institute by himself in terms of film making. Prithvi just stole the show at many times, with his exemplary communication skill and vision. Rajamauli sir is envious of malayalam writers and actors, just wow. All together a great conversation between some of the best in the business. Thanks for making this happen.
all of them folding their hands for the most part of the video is so overwhelming. Addressing each other as Sir shows the respect and the humbleness these great people have.
"Respecting the audience" is really the key, and South Indian cinema has aced it!
Yes
Except if you are a woman
This is a good talk filled with very intelligent and accomplished people overall amazing but 12:30 I don't understand how these very intelligent people cannot grasp that Hindi cinema encompasses a region of over 1.4 billion people including the Urdu speaking Pakistanis, Dari speaking Afghanis who grew up watching Bollywood cinema as the afghans had no large homegrown industry, Nepalis who similarly had no homegrown industry capable of competing with Bollywood and Bangladeshis who prefer to watch bollywood films over their own films...while all 4 of the southern industries have to compete for a region of 270 million... It's unfathomable how much more of an audience Hindi cinema has yet still these 4 smaller regional cinema industries are capable of producing films that are even bigger hits... Same with the "overseas" market he was talking about and how he was wondering how hindi cinema has captured it? Theirs over 18 million Hindi speakers outside of South Asia including overseas pakistanis and populations like Fiji or the millions of Punjabis and Biharis who were taken as indentured servants and are now large populations in South Africa, Trinidad, Guyana, Mauritius... The overseas population of South Indians outside of South Asia is barely a third of that. Their is no comparison it's insane how much the 4 regional cinemas are overperforming compared to how much Hindi cinema is underperforming.
Unlike bollywood, which has glamor white skin shite..
@@debodatta7398 it's only post-bahubali did the North Indian diaspora started watching South movies. While South movies have been very successful on TV pre-bahubali in the North, only later did the theatres encouraged them. Southern Indians also have way more disposable income and cinema craze, not forgetting the highest single screen theatres.
I am proud of Prithvi sir, like without any hesitation he said he wanted to do what ssr did for telagu film..the same confidence was there is yesh 8 yrs ago in sima award..and I am sure that Prithvi sir will definitely achieve that..
Telugu
✨️✨️🤝🤝❤️🔥💯💯😍
I think he deserves more than that
Unfortunately Prithviraj don't want to say anything regarding to what is currently happening in KR Narayanan filim institute It seems he is very particular about that he only wants to take Malayalam filim into top of it
There groovy one SSR THAT'S SUSHANT SINGH RAJPUT
Kantara just blew me away.. that reaction when the 2 deivas meet.. Sivaji would be proud
Prithvi Raj Sukumaran has to be my favourite...I am a Telugu but he amazes me every single time
Prithviraj is a beast man, so well-spoken and articulate!
And the best thing is he only studied upto +2
@@anwar8341 yes he is really clear and precise to the point. Looking forward to L2
@@anwar8341 he won the best out going student award from the school he passed out +2..He was just +2 because he's not a failure in academics..he was one among the top students in school throughout..That guy got huge offers as the hero in films when he was just 19 itself..So he dropped his graduation..And he was doing graduation in Australia before he dropped it for cinema..Definitely not an ideal example guy to say academics is nothing...He had the massive family support and privileged enough to drop a degree to be in cinema at a young age itself..That's it..
He speaks with great intellect

Kamal Hassan is by far the best. Most versatile & talented actor. He has done so many brilliant roles. Nobody can match him in the Indian film industry. Each and every movie of his is a classic. He stirs emotions that no other actor can do. He is the biggest gift to the Indian film industry. Kamal + SPB + Illiyaraja = Blockbuster
And he has many times first . . . . Using many technologies starting from camera technology to post production for the first time in the Indian film industry.
Prithiviraj Sukumaran was spot on to predict Pathaan becoming the movie to change the whole narrative built around hindi cinema not making money in the boxoffice.
Pritwi is the face of malayalam industry... 🔥🔥🔥🔥 brilliant actor, producer, director, singer and distributor 👏👏👏👏
Prithvi is someone whom I admire for the confidence he has on cinema and filmmaking. He never has to be nervous before anyone. Because he's crystal clear about what he's doing. Malayalam cinema's future is safe in this visionary man's hands along with other actors like Fahadh and Dulquer.
Talking about Kannada industry too. Rakshit Shetty started the revolution with Ulidavaru Kandante. Then came Pavan Kumar with Kavaludari and U Turn. Then Rakshit and Rishabh and even Raj Shetty. Kannadigas are rocking
Yeah after all money from PFI has to be invested right?

There's already a lot of collaboration across industries. We have Neel working with Prabhas, Shah Rukh working with Atlee, Om Prakash working with Prabhas, etc. A lot of actresses, music directors, singers, have already broken the language barriers going across industries - it is now time for the male actors and other film personnel to break them.
One of the best interviews I have ever seen; honesty, genuineness , collaborative and very inspiring… looking forward to more qualitative Indian movies

Woww ... as an avid watcher of all global cinema, being a Telugu myself, I cannot help but be amazed at elucidating clarity Prithviraj exudes with his words, not to mention his fantastic listening skills. He, quite literally, recalled and quoted Anupama's actual words to connect his narrative and answer. No wonder his movies, especially the ones he scripts and directs are so refreshing. Bravo!

I hear Prithviraj saying he wants to take Malayalam movies to another level, Kamal sir always correcting him it was always above par with the other industries.
what a brilliant discussion , feeling so happy to see all the great talents in a single frame. Do more these kinda interviews and discussions.
Lokesh kanagaraj reached this place with only 4 movies is unimaginable 🔥🔥
Seriously that's true. He is truly an Inspiration for a generation who loves movies and want to get into movies. He will be remembered as a Legend for his Character as a Person and the Skill & Clarity he brings to the table while making the film.
There is not in the no of movie they made,its in their skill.Even Prithviraj had only directed one movie Lucifer.And it is the highest collected movie in Malayalam industry
@@cjgta7869Lucifer is another level movie but he also directed bro daddy after Lucifer no one care Only in malayalam industry and release in ott small movie with feel good experience
So was imtiaz ali,anand L rai,neeraj pandey!! They just sucked up big time...coz being good filmaker to commercial filmmaker..there are few commercial one who could enjoy audiences and they are right now from souths
Proud of you Prithviraj & Lokesh . You made space with these legends, because of your hardwok, vision, knowledge & genuine character 🥰
Old malayalam movies are also really good & Prithvi is a genius
Prithvi is an excellent director with different scripts.just he need one big script to scale up.
@@sagalaaravind9062 correct 🥳
Is it just me or were Swapna Dutt’s words just so impactful. We need more female filmmakers on this couch, filmmaker’s like HER are the future if INDIAN cinema
Ps: I LOVED this recent movie called Yashoda, I sincerely urge everyone to go check it out. THATS THE STUFF, JUST DAMN.
They should have invited Sudha Kongara
I mean she is making the biggest Indian movie(pan world) right now. So the credit of first pan world film goes to a female filmmaker.
Wow... Never get bored while watching interviews of prithviraj..
But while watching his interview you have to keep a dictionary along with u

Chill madi.. Kundapura Kerala friendship friendship 🤝
True!
A lot our intellectuals and commie comrades are calling it overrated. I think such a movie would not work in Malayalam. A good example is Kumari. The production value of the climax was not that great, but the movie doesn't deserved to be a disaster.
@@samthomas7128that’s because you watched it on OTT , you don’t watch RRR or Bahubali in OTt cause it’s made for a totally different experience ! The director himself said that it’s a simple movie which is true (it’s not like we didnt know how the movie was progressing from the very beginning I guess most of us knew what was going to happen ) , it’s the climax where shiva is possessed with the Demi God that is pure visual treat to be seen on a big theatre screen and beautifully executed by Rishab shetty ! . And you will feel a strong connection to the atmosphere when you have seen the theyam performance live (bhootakola for this case) ! It was indeed a DEVINE HIT !❤
@@maheshmurali2697 kumari was a bit scary it was like thumbad tbh ! And little more towards contemporary movie Kantara was completely commercial
