00:00Yogi Babu is the one who should do this.
00:02If I don't have him, it won't tick.
00:05At least in this era.
00:07Only someone like him can do it.
00:12I think they already had it in mind.
00:16They just gave me a little bit of the narration.
00:19And I understood right away,
00:21what comedy is like,
00:22this will be the humour,
00:23this will be the thing.
00:24I had a very small little narration.
00:27Will you do a subject like this?
00:30Can I come to the office?
00:32He gave me the narration last time.
00:34It took me an hour.
00:35If you can do it superbly,
00:37we can shoot from tomorrow.
00:42We sit and compose like Nidhiyasagar.
00:45How a tune starts from the first note,
00:48if we can find out,
00:49it will be a great experience.
00:51A film maker will give a song.
00:54No one has that kind of experience.
00:59My mother's mango buttermilk.
01:01Mango buttermilk?
01:03Yes.
01:04We use mango in the buttermilk.
01:07The buttermilk will be sweet.
01:09It will have the sweetness of banganapalli.
01:11To match that,
01:12we add a lot of spiciness.
01:20My life without you.
01:22It's my favourite song.
01:23Wow!
01:24No question.
01:25It's not even over yet.
01:29Let's walk on the earth.
01:32In that sky,
01:33our couple
01:34will dance with the full moon.
01:38Sorry.
01:39My introduction.
01:42Vikram sir's song.
01:50Greetings to the directors of One India Film Impeachment.
01:52We have a special team with us today.
01:54We are going to talk about Chutney Sambar.
01:56Greetings to everyone.
01:57Greetings.
01:58How are you all?
01:59We are fine.
02:00How are you?
02:01I am fine.
02:02I think I will start with you.
02:04How did you come up with the idea of Chutney Sambar?
02:06How long has it been in the making?
02:08From the beginning,
02:09from scratch.
02:12It was an idea that came up 2 years ago.
02:15Chutney Sambar is a metaphor
02:17for the two characters.
02:19Chutney is in one place,
02:20Sambar is in another.
02:21Yes.
02:22Then the two of them
02:23come to a table.
02:24What happened to the family?
02:26A character like that.
02:28This is a story
02:30about a family
02:32in a hotel industry.
02:34So, the title was
02:36apt in all ways.
02:38Chutney Sambar.
02:39It was something
02:40that could be related easily.
02:42Plus,
02:43when I got the spark
02:45for this story,
02:47I thought
02:48only Yogi Babu should do this.
02:51If he doesn't do this,
02:52it will not stick.
02:54At least in this era.
02:56Only someone like him
02:58can do this.
03:00The two of them
03:01need that contrast.
03:02The two of them
03:03need that contrast.
03:05So, he was
03:06right in all ways.
03:07So, I met him
03:08and told him
03:09before the story
03:10was fully developed.
03:11Because only if he is okay,
03:12I can do this story.
03:14So, he said
03:15the title is good,
03:16let's do it.
03:17So, only after that
03:18I got the spark
03:19to make it a series
03:20in Hotstar.
03:23So, that's how
03:24it started.
03:25Did you decide
03:26to make it a series
03:27or to make it
03:28a movie?
03:30When we make a story,
03:31we make a story
03:32for a movie
03:33in our journey.
03:34After that,
03:35we thought
03:36to make it a series.
03:37In the beginning,
03:38I thought
03:39only a series
03:40would have
03:41a murder mystery
03:42and a crime thriller.
03:43That's how it would be.
03:44So, I had
03:45such thoughts.
03:46But,
03:47after working on it,
03:48we realized
03:49that when it's a series,
03:50it takes 2 hours
03:51to make a movie.
03:52But, when it's 4 hours,
03:53we need more characters.
03:55We need a backstory
03:56for those characters.
03:57Like that,
03:58we needed
03:59more incidents.
04:00Every 30 minutes,
04:01there would be
04:02a twist.
04:05We needed
04:06to play a little more.
04:07Yes, we needed
04:08that compulsion.
04:09At the end of the episode,
04:10there would be
04:11a bang.
04:12It would be like
04:13the next hook.
04:14Yes, like that.
04:15So, things like that
04:16had to happen.
04:17We had to do it
04:18deliberately.
04:19Some things
04:20would become obvious
04:21in the story.
04:22When that didn't happen,
04:23we had to create
04:24a scenario for it.
04:25So, there were
04:26such challenges.
04:27It was a good
04:28learning experience.
04:29Today,
04:30when it becomes
04:31a web series,
04:32when it's in
04:33a place
04:34like a cinema,
04:35we have to adapt
04:36to it.
04:37So,
04:38it was definitely
04:39a big experience
04:40for that.
04:41How did you
04:42first approach
04:43this series?
04:44How did you
04:45decide to
04:46do this series?
04:47When I heard
04:48the name
04:49Radha Mohan sir,
04:50I thought
04:51I could do it.
04:52I had to select
04:53only him.
04:54So,
04:55it came through
04:56the director's
04:57associate director,
04:58a senior of mine
04:59from college.
05:00I called him
05:01and said,
05:02this is Radha Mohan
05:03sir's series.
05:04I've seen
05:05his movies
05:06a lot.
05:07So,
05:08I thought
05:09I could
05:10do it.
05:11I was very
05:12excited.
05:13It happened
05:14all very fast.
05:15I think
05:16they already
05:17had it
05:18in mind.
05:19They just
05:20gave me
05:21a little bit
05:22of the narration.
05:23I understood
05:24the comedy
05:25in that.
05:26This will be
05:27the humor,
05:28this will be
05:29the thing.
05:30I had a
05:31very small
05:32little narration.
05:33I said,
05:34if it's okay
05:35for you,
05:36we can do it.
05:37He said,
05:38it's okay for me.
05:39It's been a
05:40very enjoyable
05:41experience
05:42working with
05:43the team
05:44and Radha Mohan sir.
05:45It's always
05:46fun and jokes
05:47and laughter.
05:48Just like
05:49his movies.
05:50Exactly.
05:51Sir,
05:52how did you
05:53come in?
05:54He dragged me
05:55inside.
05:56I called
05:57Radha Mohan sir
05:58and asked
05:59if we could
06:00do a subject
06:01like this
06:02and if
06:03we could
06:04come to
06:05the office.
06:06I gave him
06:07the narration
06:08and asked him
06:09if he could
06:10shoot from
06:11Nalani.
06:12What more
06:13do you need?
06:14After having
06:15waited for a
06:16correct project
06:17and a good
06:18platform,
06:19Hotstar,
06:20Wales,
06:21Radha Mohan sir
06:22are all
06:23big brands.
06:24So,
06:25I immediately
06:26jumped to
06:27the office.
06:28You should
06:29do that.
06:30I've said
06:31it twice.
06:32It's beautiful
06:33when you
06:34see the
06:35landscape.
06:36Where did
06:37you
06:38come from?
06:39I came
06:40from Chennai.
06:41Chennai?
06:42Yes,
06:43Chennai.
06:44How was
06:45the shooting
06:46experience?
06:47You said
06:48it was
06:49fun and jokes
06:50like a
06:51Ooty tour.
06:52Yes,
06:53it's very
06:54chill
06:55and not
06:56serious.
06:57It's a
06:58very nice
06:59environment.
07:00The weather
07:01is nice
07:02and everyone
07:03is in a
07:04good mood.
07:05I had
07:06a lot
07:07of fun.
07:08It's not
07:09very emotional
07:10but it
07:11wasn't
07:12heavy.
07:13It was
07:14an enjoyable
07:15experience.
07:16How was
07:17the learning
07:18experience for
07:19you?
07:20There are
07:21many
07:22learning
07:23experiences.
07:24Day to
07:25day it
07:26was a
07:27learning
07:28experience.
07:29How the
07:30director handles
07:31the entire
07:32set is
07:33important.
07:34It's a
07:35different
07:36world.
07:37There are
07:38many
07:39underlying
07:40factors,
07:41emotions,
07:42various
07:43scenes.
07:44He handles
07:45it as
07:46cool,
07:47calm and
07:48composed.
07:49There was
07:50never a
07:51problem
07:52like
07:53it should
07:54be done
07:55today,
07:56it should
07:57be done
07:58today,
07:59it should
08:00be done
08:01today,
08:02it should
08:03be done
08:04today.
08:05It should
08:09have
08:10a
08:11very
08:12good
08:13atmosphere.
08:14I
08:15have
08:28talked
08:29much
08:30about
08:31it.
08:32We wanted to work in a place where everyone was happy and we wanted to work as a team.
08:40Everyone was involved.
08:45When we gave clarity to our direction department, they said that the entire unit would be shot without any confusion.
08:56If we say that we are confused, it will definitely create confusion.
09:06It will irritate everyone. So, clarity is very important.
09:11We discussed every aspect of the film.
09:16After that, there was no discussion.
09:21That's how we worked in the first film.
09:26Basically, a film or a series is a series.
09:32If there is a bound script, 75% of it is a series.
09:37How do you keep yourself composed?
09:40I don't know.
09:42Actually, I want to know. I want to know how I should be composed.
09:46Everyone is in a zen mood.
09:48It's the nature of everyone.
09:50There are many people like that.
09:53For me, there is a lot of tension in ordinary things.
09:58But when I see what they say, I become more composed.
10:01We shoot a film or a series.
10:06Why do we shoot it?
10:08So that everyone can enjoy it.
10:10Without enjoying ourselves.
10:12That's it.
10:14Generally, I am like that.
10:16I want to be happy till the end of my life.
10:18That's it.
10:20Since the title is Chutney Sambar, I wanted to ask you a few things.
10:24You said that you like this kind of food.
10:29I love biriyani.
10:33My grandma makes a very specific kind of biriyani.
10:38I have never tasted it anywhere else.
10:42I really like that.
10:44On the other side, I like curd rice and potato curry.
10:48Two extremes.
10:50No in-betweens.
10:52Is there a secret recipe in that biriyani?
10:54I don't know.
10:56I need to learn it properly.
10:58It's very difficult.
11:00Even if the masala is a little off, it's not that good.
11:04They would have told me earlier.
11:06It's not that good.
11:08Later we have to compliment.
11:11Which area?
11:13My grandma is from KGF.
11:15KGF biriyani.
11:17I don't know. Maybe.
11:19How about you?
11:21I don't mind trying different cuisines.
11:24My comfort food is home cooked food.
11:27My mom's kitchen.
11:29My first preference is home cooked food.
11:31What kind of food is that?
11:33I like my mom's mango buttermilk curry.
11:36Mango buttermilk?
11:38Yes.
11:40They use mango in the buttermilk.
11:42The buttermilk is sweet.
11:44It has the sweetness of banganapalli.
11:46The potato fry is spicy.
11:48It's a contrast.
11:52It's like I'm going to eat it tomorrow.
11:56Do you know the recipe?
11:58Yes.
12:00Send me the recipes.
12:02Tell me a small bit.
12:04In general, they use ladies finger in buttermilk.
12:06Instead of ladies finger, they use mango.
12:08When they boil the mango,
12:10they add the juice to the buttermilk.
12:16It's like pineapple on pizza.
12:18It's a pity to put pineapple on pizza.
12:20I love pineapple on pizza.
12:30I like biriyani.
12:32Then fish curry.
12:34At least, it's not the same.
12:36Mango buttermilk curry.
12:38It's like biriyani and curry.
12:40I don't like curd rice.
12:42It's a basic necessity.
12:46After a heavy meal,
12:48I eat a spoon of curd rice.
12:52I ate food like this.
12:54I couldn't find that food anywhere else.
12:56Except for home cooked food.
12:58I went to a particular area.
13:00There was a shop like this.
13:02I ate food like this.
13:04But, I couldn't find it anywhere else.
13:06If you go to Madurai,
13:08you can experience it.
13:10You won't find it anywhere else.
13:14Do you have a particular dish like this?
13:18I eat it regularly.
13:20If it's in a fish curry,
13:22it will be different.
13:24It's like that.
13:26Do you have a special dish like this?
13:28I like to eat in general.
13:30I like to eat in general.
13:32So, I can't tell you anything like that.
13:36If I like something,
13:38I always go to that restaurant.
13:40I think,
13:42there is a Japanese restaurant called Dalia.
13:44It's really good.
13:46I always have the same teriyaki dish.
13:48So much that,
13:50when I go there,
13:52they ask me if I want anything else.
13:54So, like that,
13:56I'll have certain things at restaurants.
13:58So, when the server asks you,
14:00you'll have certain things.
14:02Is he such a regular customer?
14:04I didn't know that.
14:06I didn't know that he was so regular.
14:08But, whenever he comes,
14:10I'll have certain things.
14:12If you don't want to try anything,
14:14you can go.
14:16If you want to see Samitha,
14:18you can go to a Japanese restaurant.
14:20Do you have a particular dish like that?
14:22When I go out with my friends,
14:24I like to eat at roadside stalls.
14:26In Aluapet,
14:28before going to the office,
14:30there is a platform stall on the main road.
14:32There,
14:34we'll have egg dosa.
14:36It'll be amazing.
14:38We'll be very hungry.
14:404-5 guys.
14:42If we pay the bill, it'll be 150-200 rupees.
14:44That'll be the highlight there.
14:46And,
14:48when I go to other hotels,
14:50if I ask for chutney,
14:52he'll show his face.
14:54If I ask for egg dosa,
14:56he'll show his face.
14:58Usually,
15:00in these interviews,
15:02I'll ask you to recommend
15:04a web series or movie
15:06that you like.
15:08A movie recommendation,
15:10a book, music, songs,
15:12anything.
15:14I'm interested in web series.
15:16Breaking Bad.
15:20Breaking Bad, Walter White Gang or
15:22Jesse Pinkman Gang?
15:24The entire series.
15:26It's like a dictionary.
15:30I like that a lot.
15:32In Tamil,
15:34I like Vilangu.
15:36After watching Vilangu,
15:38I liked Ajish's music.
15:40So,
15:42I decided to try it.
15:44Usually,
15:46in your films,
15:48the music is special.
15:50Did you work with Ajish or Yuvan Shankar?
15:52How did you work with Ajish?
15:54There are no songs in this.
15:56A song is just for promotional purposes.
15:58I worked with Ajish
16:00for this.
16:02After the shoot,
16:04I asked him to re-record the film.
16:06That's how it was.
16:08Composing a song
16:10is the only way
16:12to develop the rap.
16:14Now, it's not like that.
16:16In the past,
16:18Vidhya Sagar,
16:20we used to sit and compose.
16:22We used to find out how a tune
16:24starts from the first note.
16:26It was a unique experience.
16:28A filmmaker composing a song...
16:30Today, no one has that experience.
16:32The generation of directors.
16:34They work here.
16:36The tune comes in the mail.
16:38We sit and talk one-to-one.
16:40Sometimes,
16:42the music director, lyricist,
16:44director, music director, lyricist,
16:46compose a song.
16:48It's rare now.
16:52This is a small song.
16:54The three of us
16:56composed the lyrics.
16:58In fact, my entire team
17:00composed the lyrics.
17:02We talked about it.
17:04That's how it was.
17:06Ajish is a very good talent.
17:12He still has a long way to go.
17:14Tell me one thing.
17:16I want to ask you about it.
17:18Lyricist, music director, and director.
17:20There's a combo for these three.
17:22They do a lot of magic.
17:24There are many iconic trios.
17:26Which trio do you like?
17:28Director, music director, and lyricist.
17:32There are many.
17:34If you start with Balachandar,
17:36Balachandar, MSV,
17:38and Kannadasan.
17:40Sridhar, MSV, Kannadasan.
17:42There are many.
17:44Varathi Raja, Ilayaraja Vairam,
17:46Manirathnam,
17:48Ilayaraja Vali.
17:50There are many.
17:52It's an unforgettable work.
17:58I have a question.
18:00What's your favorite web series?
18:02Last week,
18:04I watched a web series.
18:06It's like a sports comedy.
18:08It's called Ted Lasso.
18:12It's my favorite now.
18:14I'm crying, I'm laughing.
18:16I really like it.
18:18It's become my favorite.
18:20In Tamil,
18:22I prefer the thriller series.
18:24Like Sujal.
18:26Actually, I like Jubilee.
18:28Jubilee is a Hindi web series.
18:30I really enjoyed that.
18:32I think it was more
18:34the magic of the cinema
18:36than the production design.
18:38That was something I enjoyed.
18:40My personal favorite is
18:42How I Met Your Mother.
18:44That's the first series I watched.
18:46After that,
18:48I liked Special Ops.
18:50It's a platform based on food.
18:54It's about the state of mind
18:56of communism.
18:58It's a raw series.
19:00Anything that keeps me engaged.
19:02I like it as a young child.
19:04I like the
19:06grandmother and grandson relationship.
19:08I like it.
19:10It just keeps me engaged.
19:12Before we leave you all,
19:14let's have a game session.
19:16I'll tell you the lyrics of a song.
19:18Please tell me what the song is.
19:20It's easy.
19:22Yes, it'll be easy.
19:24It'll be easy for you.
19:26It'll be easy even for a 10-year-old.
19:28I think it'll be easy.
19:30The wind doesn't bite me.
19:32The flower doesn't push me.
19:34The flower doesn't push me.
19:36The flower doesn't push me.
19:38You said it correctly.
19:40Okay.
19:42I'll ask you the last one.
19:44You thought it was a game
19:46to touch my position differently.
19:48Are you singing?
19:50I'll say it correctly.
19:52It'll be easier if you read it.
19:54It'll be difficult if you sing.
19:56Did you get it?
19:58I didn't get it.
20:04Rhythm.
20:06What's the song?
20:08Rhythm.
20:10It's very difficult.
20:12It's very difficult.
20:14You have to start
20:16with the alphabet.
20:20I'll sing.
20:22They'll scold me.
20:24Okay.
20:30It's my favorite song.
20:32No question mark.
20:34You didn't even finish it.
20:36Banger.
20:42Sir's movie.
20:44No.
20:46I'll say it.
20:48Your silence is enough
20:50even if the world ends.
20:52In this song,
20:54a father and son
20:56have worked together.
20:58What did you say?
21:00Your silence is enough
21:02even if the world ends.
21:04Do you know it?
21:08Anjali is the heroine.
21:10Actress Anjali.
21:12Oh yeah.
21:14Nilayaraja's song.
21:16Parachankar Raja's music.
21:18Correct.
21:24I didn't get it.
21:26I didn't get the beginning.
21:30Favorite song.
21:34I thought this was the last one.
21:38You shouldn't say it.
21:40Say it in Malayalam.
21:42I shouldn't say it?
21:44No, you shouldn't.
21:46If truth becomes silence,
21:48tears become Malayalam.
21:50The movie's name is
21:52in the lyrics.
21:54But the song is different.
21:56The song.
21:58If you add a line before the song,
22:00the song.
22:02Okay, Malayalam.
22:04I said Malayalam.
22:06If you add a word before Malayalam,
22:08Malayalam.
22:10Simple, right?
22:12Okay, so last.
22:28I feel like I have heard this song.
22:30It's very motivational.
22:32But I don't know.
22:34I only know love songs.
22:36I don't know.
