A civil engineer-turned-filmmaker,
Sai Sathyam
is making his debut with the horror thriller 465 (Naalu Aaru Anju). The film has TV actor
Karthik Raj (of Office and Kanaa Kaanum Kaalangal fame) and
Niranjanam
, who has done a couple of
Malayalam
movies, playing the leads.
���I studied in Vellore and took up filmmaking on my own. I have previously directed documentary films and also an experimental film set inside a room, which is what provided the opportunity to do this film,��� begins Sai Sathyam, who says that though his film has a one-line plot, he has tried new things in the screenplay to make the film unpredictable for audiences. ���I have tried to tell the story through visuals as much as possible. In fact, there are no songs and very little dialogue; the second half will have dialogues only in three scenes,��� he elaborates.
He says that he roped in
Karthik because the script called for a new face, who the audiences were also slightly familiar with. ���The problems that this character faces forms the plot,��� he adds.
