When I was writing Thrishanku, I had Anna Ben in mind. She hasn’t done anything in this genre so far. I thought she would like the role.

Arjun Ashokan gives us the vibe of a boy-next-door. His off-screen persona has convinced me to approach him as the lead.

Talking on the theme of Eloping he said, “It is a cliched subject, and we deliberated on how to make this plot interesting. That’s how Sethu’s (Arjun Ashokan) two uncles and the love story of his sister were included.”

“The relationship of Sumi (Zarin Shihab) with her boyfriend is intentionally immature. It’s a typical example of how new-age online love stories ending up falling in love happen.”

Talking about casting, “Nandu Chettan (brother) and Suresh Krishna were placed with Arjun Ashokan, it would be a good combination as the three of them approach humour in different ways.”

I met the music director of Thrishanku, Jay Krishnan, in Mumbai. I was quite impressed with his fresh “sounding” when I heard some of his earlier compositions.

“A lot of viewers mentioned the way Krishna Kumar pulled off the “attitude” of an ex-cop. The sudden shift of Balaji at the end was received well in theatres."
