Hyderabad: The first look of Amala Paul’s upcoming film titled ‘Aadai’ was released by director Venkat Prabhu from his official Twitter account Tuesday.
Directed by Ratna Kumar of Meyaadha Maan fame, the poster draws attention to the film’s title — Aadai (clothing). With toilet paper wrapped around her body and bloodied wounds on her hands and face, Amala Paul is seen crying while holding a rusted piece of plumbing in the poster.
Three words — Arrogant, Audacious and Artistic — are written below the film’s title. The film’s cinematography is being handled by Vijay Karthik Kannan. The film’s music is being composed by singer Pradeep Kumar’s band Ookga. The film is being produced by Viji Subramanian.
Earlier, in an interview, director Ratna had said, “Aadai is a dark comedy, and Amala does not have a pair as such. Aimed at mature audiences, the script has enough engrossing and entertaining elements. And it will also address the issue of where to draw the line when it comes to freedom.”
Amala Paul was previously seen in Bhaskar Oru Rascal alongside Arvind Swamy. The film was a remake of the Malayalam hit Bhaskar-The Rascal. The actor also has films like Raatchasan in Tamil and Aadujeevitham in Malayalam.
Amala Paul also hinted in a interview that Aadai’s poster will make people go “crazy” — “It’s a kick-ass story. I told Ratna that I’ll do this film if we will work together as a team, and not have exclusive roles as a director and actor, that’s my idea. When you see the first look poster, you’ll go crazy. It’s something else, nobody has done it before,” she added.
