The Teaser For ENAKKUL ORUVAN

Last year Kannada filmmaker Pawan Kumar made a huge splash in the Indian independent feature world by successfully crowdfunding his second feature film, Lucia. The film made a big impression on the international festival circuit, and is commonly recognized as one of the finest Indian films of 2013. Now, the film has been remade in Tamil for an even larger audience as Enakkul Oruvan, starring the now ubiquitous Siddharth (Jigarthanda, Ko, Rang De Basanti, Midnight's Children), the rare Indian film star who moves fluidly between regional cinemas with very little problem.

Lucia was the story of an insomniac projectionist who, in his desperation to find rest, comes across a drug guaranteed to help him sleep. However, he very quickly realizes that the effects of the drug are more than he'd bargained for.
One might think that Pawan Kumar would be hesitant about someone remaking his film, however, he seems to be chipper, even excited about the project. Siddharth is a solid leading man, and the production house, CV Kumar's Thiru Kumaran, is responsible for many of the new wave of Tamil films hitting screens that have upped the ante on what kind of quality we can expect from regional cinema when we don't focus so much on the star factor.

I'm excited to see Enakkul Oruvan as Lucia was excellent, and while it may not be the same thing, the team working on the film has a great track record.
