Mohanlal starrer Lokpal is being shot near Subhash Park Ernakulam. A girl who went for a walk in the morning saw the shot and the crowd and stopped there for a moment. Unexpectedly, the girl caught the eye of the casting coordinator.
The man cried and cried. Surprised, the girl doubted that it was she who was calling. She came in when the coordinator called again. His question is whether he will sit as a young artist because of the lack of people. She said ok.
Forgetting to arrive at the office at ten o’clock, the girl stood for the shoot. After a while, the casting coordinator came and explained the matter. Not alone, he was asked to keep all the files and stay behind as a PA of the character played by Saikumar in the film. Realizing that the game was bad, the girl called her mother. He asked permission to do a small role in the film. My mother, who was busy, only half-heartedly listened and cried out that she would do something. Ten years ago, that girl who got lost on the film set is the current Divya Prabha who became the pride of India at the Cannes Film Festival.
Divya Prabha’s dedication as an actress is what sets her apart. They are ready to go to any extent for the success of the character. They did the same with All We Imagine Us Light which was brilliant at Cannes. But many on social media reacted to them in a symbolic way. The stories and obscene comments made by those who turned against them because of one scene that was only seconds away break all boundaries.
Malayalee society today is ashamed to celebrate Divya Prabha’s nudity in this movie. Now the question is where is the connection of that scene that is only seconds in the film circulating on social media platforms and groups? Social media is full of stupid ideas. But Divya Prabha’s point is that a section of the youth sees art as art, and Malayalis as a whole are not to blame.
This movie has become a big talk not only in Kerala but also nationally. Director Payal Kapadia initially decided that Divya would play the role of Kani Kusumi in the film. He auditioned twice. Realizing that Divya would not fit the character, Payal later found Anu’s role in Divya. Divya got this role after auditioning again.
Divyaprabha got the attention of the audience with the movie Takeoff directed by Mahesh Narayanan. Divya has also received the 2015 State Television Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the teleserial Ishwaran Sakshiyai. Divya also played prominent roles in films like Tamasha, Kammarasambhavam, Malik and Nizhal.
Divya Prabha’s own Tavalara was transformed by Mahesh Narayanan’s masterful performance in the release. Divya Prabha was also helped by the excellent reviews the film received in many film festivals. Payal Kapadia’s invitation to All We Imagine as Light comes after seeing that film. Divya is also confident that that film rewrote her future.
