The film has won awards at nine festivals so far, but winning at Cannes World Film Festival is extra special. I’ve acted in a Marathi film and played the lead in Katyar Kaljat Ghusali (2015), and I’m comfortable with acting,” says Mahadevan.įor Sivan, the project was special and it took her two-and-a-half years to complete the film. Years of music videos, reality TV shows, and cameos have taught me that. “I’m used to being in front of the camera. While he had to play himself in the project, the musician is open to accepting more acting offers.
As the film started taking shape, I knew this would be one of the greatest experiences of my life,” says Mahadevan. But, when I thought about her idea, intention, belief and research on me, the project began to make a sense. “When she narrated her idea and storyline, I was amused. When the director reached out to Mahadevan with the idea, he wasn’t sure how it would shape up. I’ve never given myself so much importance by dwelling on my pursuits and accomplishments.” I never thought that my life’s story could be captured in a book or on the screen in a film.
When we asked the composer if he saw this coming, Mahadevan said, “We did not think that the film would make such a massive impact on audiences and critics alike. Directed by Deepti Pillay Sivan, the movie has won in the Best Indian Film and Best Biographical Film categories. A documentary film on his life, titled Decoding Shankar, has won two awards at the Cannes World Film Festival. But now, the musician has won a laurel outside the field of music. Composer-singer Shankar Mahadevan has various hit soundtracks to his credit, which have won his accolades over the years.
