Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi is making his presence felt in Kollywood now with the release of his tri lingual film Prince.
The film in Hindi and has been dubbed into Tamil and Telugu and will be releasing on April 9th. Produced by Tips, the film is directed by debutant Kookie Gulati.
Vivek was in Chennai last evening (March 29) to talk about his film to the media. Despite his flight being several hours late, the actor looked fresh and was highly enthusiastic to talk about his film, answering every media person with a smile, wit and a smattering of Tamil, winning everyone over immediately. “I am extremely sorry for keeping you all waiting so many hours but our flight was held up in Coimbatore and we spent hours sitting around at the airport,” were the first words he uttered.
Talking about Prince Vivek disclosed, “It’s a high action original story of the world’s greatest thief who discovers that someone has stolen his memory and he has only six days to live. He has to find out who he is and why the police and others are chasing him. He also has girl trouble with three girls claiming to be Maya, his lover.”
Talking about the action scenes he said, “I trained for 5 months in martial arts, parkours, skate boards, cable training etc before we shot the film in six months. It will appeal to kids, youth and the aged. I did all the stunts myself including a jump across 60 feet of space from a 32 feet high building to another terrace.”
He added, “Prince is a global film where international technology has been used to shoot action in an Indian movie. Resul Pookutty has done the sound for the action scenes and edited by international editor Nicolas from Paris who worked on Transporter earlier. The film needed special editors since it has been shot with 8 to 12 cameras and many editors here were not equipped to edit such a film.”
The film has a kissing scene for which he took many takes. Vivek blushed admitting it and giving the reason, “I had to kiss the heroine just before a high action scene and we had 300 unit members on the bridge staring at us. Plus many angles had to be got right and I was a bit nervous so yes, it did take a few extra takes. I am a very private person so the scene was tough for me to do.”
Talking about the Tamil dubbed version he said, “TN is a great place and I my mother was born here while my aunt and uncle live here even now. TN has always been a good market for my films and I felt it would be the right time to give the audiences here a high action international quality film from the makers of Race. Producer Kumar Taurani is the real Prince of the film being extremely passionate about cinema.”
The music is by Sachin Gupta who debuts and who has sung the songs in all three languages. The songs are already chartbusters in the US, UK, UAE and India claimed Vivek even as Sachin performed live for the audience.
