Description

Gautham Vasudev Menon discusses the writing of Yennai Arindhaal, starring Ajith, and talks about his love for cop stories (including Kaakha Kaakha, starring Suriya, and Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu, starring Kamal Haasan). He says the three films -- the three characters -- are a continuum. He talks about how Ajith never asked him to tweak the script to make it more heroic. He reveals that Anushka's role wasn't originally something he wanted. He talks about why he opted out of Dasavatharam.

He talks about collaborating with Shridhar Raghavan and Thiagarajan Kumararaja, during the writing process. He talks about the Moondru Mugam influence. He talks about voiceovers. He talks about the dead wives/lovers in his films. He talks about his inability to write 'bad' fathers. He discusses his love for journeys (also in Vaaranam Aayiram). He talks about not going beyond the first draft. And he speaks about Harris Jayaraj, Thamarai, and the Unkannenna Venum Sollu song.
