National award winning actress Surabhi Lakshmi's face that came on the poster of
Anoop Menon's upcoming movie Padma has already become a discussion point among movie buffs. The actress has showcased a new look in it.
Talking about the movie, the film's director Anoop Menon, who is also bankrolling for the first time through Padma tells us that he always felt that a national award winning actress Surabhi has never got a chance to explore her acting caliber.
"We have only seen her in some small roles for strange reasons. This film belongs to Padma out and out and Surabhi is the perfect cast for it," he says adding, she will be seen in a get up which nobody would ever have thought of in her.
The film has been shooting on three schedules in places like Kochi, Munnar, Dubai, Guruvayoor and Kozhikde. "The film introduces fifteen new faces and I am amazed to see all of them acting really well. This is the first time I am not including any of my usual cast," he says.
According to Anoop, Padma will give out a strong feminine statement. "There is a very bold statement that Padma makes without much ado. I am sure many will connect with Padma. She makes a few statements through the incidents that happen in her life," he says.
Apart from direction and production, Anoop Menon also does a part in the film. His debut directorial King Fish which has director Ranjith playing an integral role is ready for release.
