Based on real, mythical narratives recorded on palm leaves, a film called 'Thiru. Manasu' is being directed by Anushankar starring debutants Mohan Krishna and Gayathri. The crew had recently completed a 20-day shoot which proved to be challenging in the dense forests of Kodaikanal.
It has been a long time desire for the director to come up with a film with such an interesting storyline. He even is in the habit of preserving real manuscripts in his house.
The manuscript in one such palm leaf reads like this "With stern food fasting and by chanting the mantras inscripted on the palm leaves, one can change their guise." Incidentally this forms the crux of Thiru.Manasu.
This film that revolves around mystical and paranormal powers is being made at a brisk pace with a view to enthrall audiences. A film specializing in horror, striving to elicit fear and terrific responses should be a welcome addition to Tamil Cinema.
