Kamal Haasan takes over director's duties for Sabash Naidu

The shooting of Kamal Haasan's Sabash Naidu kick-started recently in USA. Due to health issues, director Rajeev Kumar was admitted in the hospital soon after the shooting began. It is said that the director is suffering from Lyme disease and it will take time for him to recover. Hence, according to a leading daily, Kamal Haasan has taken in-charge of directorial department.



Sabash Naidu is a trilingual family drama, in which Kamal Haasan revives his popular Dasavatharam investigator role "Balram Naidu". Actor Brahmanandam is playing Appa Rao role in Tamil & Telugu, while Bollywood actor Saurabh Shukla is playing the Appa Rao role in Hindi. The movie is produced by Lyca Productions.

 

Recently, there were reports claiming that director TK Rajeev Kumar had walked out ofKamal Haasan's upcoming project Sabhash Naidu, because of creative differences with theViswaroopam actor and that Kamal himself will helm the film.

But the star actor took to his Twitter page to let everyone know that he will be directing just a dance sequence, as Rajeev had fallen ill.


"I am directing the dance as Rajeev is unwell. Hope he gets well soon @shrutihaasan @KunduNaiduRaw," Kamal had posted.

But now, it looks like Kamal Haasan will be directing the entire movie as the Malayalam film-maker has been hospitalized with a rare infection called Lyme disease.

"My director has fallen ill, extremely ill. The unfortunate setback occurred when we were on the fourth day of our recce in LA. It was diagnosed as Lyme disease, a rare infection prevalent in Europe and North America. Hence, I am directing the film," Kamal Haasan told Deccan Chronicle.

The actor-filmmaker has said, Rajeev is currently undergoing treatment in one of the best hospitals.

"We have put him in one of the best hospitals with one of our executives keeping vigil 24/7. Our large get-well card signed by the whole unit also stands beside him."

Though this is not the first time Kamal is replacing a director for his movie, this time around, he has done it only to finish the project on time.

"Yes, I have done it before. This time I moved in as a standby director, hoping my friend would recover, and he will. The film is being shot on a tight schedule, and we are planning to finish shooting by July-end or the first week of August," he has said.

"Rajeev started his career as a director with me in the lead nearly 25 years back. I am sure when he is up and about he will have many more movies to direct. He has already done 25 films in his career. He will do 25 more and I'll be in at least 10 of them!" Kamal told the leading daily.

 

Director T.K. Rajeev, who was supposed to direct Kamal Haasan’s trilingual project, has officially dropped out of the film. It is known news that T.K. Rajeev has been ill ever since the team visited the US. Kamal stepped in temporarily to direct the movie.
