When many NRI Tamils come to Tamil Nadu to produce Tamil films, here is a man who makes a Tamil film in Denmark. K.S. Durai, the Sri Lankan Tamil living in Denmark, is making a Tamil movie that gives thrust to the glory and the potential of Tamil language.
'Let us rule the world through our language Tamil' ' is the theme of the story.
While Durai has made the local boy Vasanth as hero, he has cast Karunas, Sriman, Poornitha, and Suji Bala from Tamil Nadu in important roles. Vasanth, being a computer engineer in Denmark, takes care of the graphics work for the film. Director Durai says that the quality of Tsunami scenes created by Vasanth in graphics is on par with that of Hollywood films.
The shooting is in progress in one of the 500 islands surrounding Denmark. A huge Thiruvalluvar statue has been installed in the island for the shooting.
Durai, who talks about Valluvar and Thirumoolar for hours together, is teaching Tamil in Denmark.
