mayoori

Vinayan has gifted Malayalam cinema with a bunch of amazing films like Kalyana Sougandhikam, Shipayi Lahala, Akashaganga, Vasanthiyum Lakshmiyum Pinne Njanun, Vellinakshathram and Adbhuda Dweepu..

Now he has come up with Akasha Ganga 2, which has been well-received by audience.

Akasha Ganga 2 made with more of visual effects also features Mayoori, who had appeared in the title role in the prequel. This had triggered curiosity of the movie watchers. Mayoori who died years ago has been brought back using the technology known as VFX. (Visual effects, abbreviated VFX, is the process by which imagery is created or manipulated outside the context of a live action shot in filmmaking.)

Vinayan reveals the secret of recreating Mayoori in the Kaumudy TV programme titled Day With A Star.

“When we take the second part of Akashaganga, we can’t tell the story, forgetting the character Ganga. Mayoori who donned that role had died four years after the release of Akashaganga. She was 19 years at that time and died when she was 23. As her presence was inevitable in Part 2, we had to use VFX technology. Thus we could recreate Mayoori. We made her face using animation and created her by superimposing it on the old film’s body,” Vinayan explains.
