Chennai,Oct 17 (TruthDive) : Creating a trenchant mark of technical bonanza in the world of cinematography, Santhosh Sivan holds a prominent position on the global maps for being the first Indian Cinematographer to have his name in American Society of Cinematography.

This morning, it was a splendid moment to witness yet another incredulous extravaganza as Tamil industry becomes the first to shoot a film with ‘Red Dragon Digital’ Camera in the world. The test shoot of Suriya-Lingusamy’s untitled project happened at Prasad Studio that was thronged by the most fascinating engineers of ‘Red Camera’ and ‘Angenieux Lens’.

Following this film, the camera will be used by chart-topping filmmaker of Hollywood, Ridley Scott and many others. This indeed is a great happening in 100 years of Indian Cinema, where Tamil industry will step ahead to the next level surpassing Hollywood.

In the recent times, there are lots of young filmmakers rocking in the industry. I have to prepare myself to compete with them. This film is yet to be titled and we have an excellent team of technicians. I have been an ardent fan of Santhosh Sivan from the time I watched his ‘Thalapathy’. Yuvan Shankar Raja scores music, Rajeevan is the art director and Anthony is editor. Brindha Saarathy pens dialogues. Samantha plays the female lead role.”

Suriya, who was sported hot and handsome with beard said, “I am really privileged to be a part of this project. I have been the visual magic of Santhosh Sivan sir from my childhood and I’m happy to be a part of this project.
