Dubai: Actor Prithviraj said he could not avoid the film for fear of opposing opinions after the film’s release. “Such comments will never end,” he said. He clarified this in response to a question about the controversies surrounding Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Pathanu’. Prithviraj was speaking at a press conference in Dubai regarding his new film ‘Kappa’.
Every organization and individual will have their own ideas. One person’s idea may not be right for another. Some ideas are opposed by one group and welcomed by another group as its beneficiaries. You can’t make a film to please everyone. Such objections had been foreseen during the making of a film like Kuruthi. But what’s wrong with making that movie if the people who starred in that movie, the director or the producer don’t have such evil intentions. Every word must be used with care nowadays.
It is not possible to say how it will be interpreted. There was a controversy regarding a dialogue in Tiger. But when I spoke that dialogue during filming, I didn’t think it was wrong. I apologized for not feeling that way. Kappa is not a political film. This is the story of some of the Kappa list. Prithviraj said that although Thiruvananthapuram is the background, there has been no deliberate attempt to include the Thiruvananthapuram language.
Actor-director Dileesh Pothan said that avoiding films for fear of opposing opinions would spell the end of the art. As each character speaks some dialogue, he thinks about how it will affect society. This is told to the director. From them we get satisfactory answers. The film is made in two ways for OT and theater. Dileesh said that if there was no OT, there would be no film like Joji. Actresses Aparna Balamurali and Annaben also attended the press conference.
