S. Sashikanth, YNOT Studios said – “For over a year now, I have been in talks with leading Film Directors in our industry to become Creative Producers, who will identify interesting scripts and nurture them creatively. Directors Pushkar & Gayatri, who have floated their own production house – ‘Wallwatcher Films’, will be the first ones to collaborate with us in this venture, with this promising film- “AELAY””.
Shibasish Sarkar, Group CEO Reliance Entertainment added – “This sort of a collaborative model of identifying, backing and producing content-driven films is relatively new to the Tamil Industry and it is going to be an exciting time for content creators and filmgoers alike.“
Pushkar & Gayatri said – “We have long nurtured the dream of bringing stories we love to the big screen. On that note, “AELAY” is a story we heard and loved, from Halitha Shameem when she used to work as our assistant director. So, when Sashikanth came up with the proposal, we were thrilled to be a part of it.”
Halitha Shameem said – “I’m totally thrilled to be directing ‘Aelay’ – a script that I had written many years ago, which is still close to my heart. And to have my mentors, Pushkar & Gayatri as my Creative Producers feels blissful indeed. A big thanks to Y Not Studios Sashikanth for their path breaking initiative of presenting ‘content driven’ films.
