Chitchat with Chandra Sekhar Yeleti about Prayanam
chandra sekhar yeleti

Hyderabad
October 12, 2008

Chandra Sekhar Yeleti of Aithe and Anukokunda Oka Roju is going to direct and produce a film titled ‘Prayanam’ with Manoj Manchu as hero. The unit would be going to Malaysia on 20 October to shoot major part of the film in Malaysian airport. Idlebrain.com caught up with Chandra Sekhar Yeleti for an exclusive interview. He has agreed to answer five questions. Here are they –

1. Why did you title the film as Prayanam?
Conceptually, this film is the journey of life for the male lead. And literally, Prayanam means journey on the flight. Most of the movie will be shot in the Malaysian airport. This film will have limited characters.

2. Initially, you mentioned that the film will be shot in Sweden?
Yes I tried the Zurich, Sweden and Munich, Germany airports. We wanted to shoot for over 25 days at a stretch and they could not offer for more than 5 – 8 days. We zeroed on Malaysian airport because they gave us permission to shoot at a stretch.

3. What is the genre of the film?
It is a romantic comedy that happened in a few hours during the day time in an international airport abroad.

4. Generally we see such single location and time stamp films for horror films and thrillers. How do you handle a romantic comedy in such a situation?
Whenever I write a story, I come up with a 50 minute runtime version of the basic concept. Later I extend it to suit 2 and half hour duration. It was easy for me when I wrote the first version of 50 minutes runtime. I found it difficult to extend it with so many limitations. But I figured out a way to narrate it in an interesting way. The entire film will engage and entertain the crowds though most of the film shot in an airport.

5. Tell us about the music?
Mahesh Shankar (Vennela fame) composes the music. There is one full song and two bit songs. Anant Sreeram is penning lyrics.
