Last week saw the release of Nayanthara's Aramm directed by Gopi Nainar. The film opened to unanimously positive reviews from fans and critics alike. In an exclusive conversation with Behindwoods, director Gopi talks about how this movie happened.

When asked about why he chose Nayanthara to play the lead and what made him decide to cast a female in that role, which could have also worked the same way with any other mass hero, this is what he had to say. "I did not choose ma'am. When I narrated the story to Nayanthara ma'am, she was in the position to chose me. When I wrote the character, it was written just as a district collector character and not particularly a female."
