Sriram Raghavan on making Merry Christmas
Sharing his experience about making the film, director Sriram Raghavan said in a statement, “Merry Christmas is a very different film from anything I have made in the past. At the core of this film is a relationship that develops between two strangers over the course of one night. There’s a crime involved, of course, but sometimes one can live a lifetime in one night.”
“We have taken a slow-burn approach; there’s anticipation and suspense, but the twists and turns are quieter, even stealthier. The viewer has to invest in the characters played by Katrina and Vijay to really enjoy the pay-off,” he added.
