Check out this new trailer of Shane Nigam’s Olu

Shane Nigam starrer ‘Olu’ is set release this Friday (September 20). Directed by the legendary Shaji N Karun, this fantasy film has Shane and ‘Drishyam’ fame Esther Anil in the lead roles. Olu, which means she, is the tale of a Gypsy girl who mysteriously survives under the backwaters where she has been sunk by her rapists. Only during full moon nights, can she see the world above the water. It is on such a night that she happens to ‘meet’ Vasu, a young untalented painter, rowing his boat.

Shane plays the role of this painter who is in search of his muse. Out of love, she empowers him to create paintings that will change his life. But their contrasting inner visions of love may remain unbridgeable. It is a fantasy story written by Shaji N Karun and has several layers like most of the director’s earlier acclaimed films. TD Ramakrishnan has penned the screenplay.

The cast also includes Indrans, Kani Kasthuri and Maya Menon. Late cinematographer MJ Radhakrishnan has shot the film. His outstanding work in the film had won him a National award this year. Issac Thomas Kottukapally is the music director and Sreekar Prasad has handled the edits.

Urvasi Theatres is releasing ‘Olu’ in Kerala.
