In fact, he is  apparently not a bit nervous about Love Failure.   Listening him speak  so confidently about the first-of-its-kind film on  Indian screen, you  will think that the success of the film is a foregone  conclusion for  him.  Going by the promise it holds, LF is indeed a  potential hit.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>In this exclusive chat with southmp3, Sid  speaks at length about his  Feb. 17 release, talks about his convictions,  and shares much more for  the first time.  Watch him talk frankly in the  most important  interview he has given in the recent times.  Excerpts:</b></div><div style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;"> <b><img border="0" src="http://i.indiaglitz.com/telugu/news/SidhuInt150212_2c.jpg" /></b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On how Love Failure happened:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I happened to watch a ten-minute video on You Tube  uploaded by one  guy.  I found it so very novel that I started to feel  embarrassed.   After being in the industry for so many years, many of us  could not  come out with such innovative ideas.  I immediately wanted to  get in  touch with the mind behind it.  To my utter surprise, I found him  in  the office of a friend in Chennai.  When he developed the story into  a  two-hour film, it had earlier been compressed into that short video.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>Because I wanted to make a different and honest film  as a first-time  producer, I decided to produce it myself.  He came up  with a bound  Hollywood-style script.  I made up my mind to make the film  with the  appropriate budget and give it a good release.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On Love Failure the film:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I will call LF a "small big film".  I will call it a  cute,  experimental film; but I will also call it a commercial one.   There is  no message and no melodrama here.  I promise that this film,  unlike my  previous films, will not make you sob.  You will come out with  a smile  on your face.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>For the first time in our cinema, the hero (Arun)  behaves like one  among the audience from the beginning.  He involves  them through his  conversations with them.  The film begins with a  break-up.  There is  reverse narration at some places, the film flits  between past and  present.  It is not limited to one pair.  The hero's  friends too have a  story.  It shows what happens after the marriage.  It  is a romantic  comedy with multiple stories thrown in.  Thaman would say  that after  watching LF successful couples might break up and those not  getting  along well will patch up.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>The film raises certain real questions like why we  fall in love,  etc.  It entertains, it confuses you.  Regardless of your  age, you will  relate to the story very well.  I promise that you are  going to see a  new world.  It is not a film for the industry.  It is  common man's  cinema.  This film will be taken up as an example by many  after its  release.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On his character in LF:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I play a college student hear.  Though initially I  was a bit  apprehensive about playing a college buddy at 32, I was  pleasantly  surprised when I watched the rushes.  I am looking younger  than I look  in the mirror.  My character has no heroic or cinematic  frills attached  to it.  I play a totally normal one.  The mannerisms and  expressions  are very real.  I would say that I acted less and lived the  role more.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On learning from Aamir Khan:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>While shooting for Rang De Basanti, I would wonder  why such a big  star like Aamir gels along with the rest of us like an  ordinary star.   It was only later that the reason revealed itself to me  when he said  that a film is for all ages, not just for the present.  I  have imbibed  his dedication and that feeling in me.</b></div><div style="float: left; margin-right: 5px;"> <b><img border="0" src="http://i.indiaglitz.com/telugu/news/SidhuInt150212_3c.jpg" /></b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On Balaji Mohan, the director:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I am awed at the vision and creativity of this young  man.  If the  film is so different, full credit goes to him.  LF follows  from his  vision.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On music by Thaman:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>Thaman has given a beautiful music.  He worked as if  it was his own  production.  That he is my friend helped a lot, but he  was inspired to  give that very different output.  After scoring for the  movies like  Dookudu and Businessman, he was excited to work for this  romantic film.   He exudes that child-like excitement.  Listening to the  music, nobody  would guess that it is Thaman's work.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>Every song was in a sense very risky.  We wanted them  to be not so  regular and thus asked Srimani (lyricist) to push the  envelope.  This  young man's prolific contribution was in no less way  helpful.  He  completely digested the madness of LF.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On his involvement in films:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I always make sure that we choose the right musician  and right  cinematographer for our film.  Their technique is quite  important,  because they develop things extempore.  That's why you see  that the  cinematographers of all my films were quite good talent.   Coming to  working with a musician, I never believe in making  specifications to  him.  We give him the story and lead scene and ask him  to belt out the  tune.  Good music will come out this way.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On being first-time producer:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>It feels proud and amazing that things fell in  place.  The correct  budget and completion in the time frame are very  important.  Of course,  the biggest victory is when the audience lap up  your film.  I am very  confident that they will like it.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On choosing Amala Paul:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I wanted to go for a new girl; I did not want a  heroine from Mumbai  or Chennai who drops on the sets as if she was  giving a darshan.  But  choosing a new girl was not an easy job.  At that  time, we zeroed in  Amala Paul.  She proved a right choice; she  understood the character  very quickly and gave a natural performance.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On his "image":</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I do not believe in any image.  If people call me  'chocolate boy',  'lover boy', et al, who can stop them?  On my part, I  would like to be  called a good artist.  After LF, I will love if people  say that Sid  should come next with an experimental film and another  section say that  he should come up with a romantic film.  I have not  given a single  blockbuster in the last five years.  Why are producers  investing in me.   My films are made at Rs. 10 cr.  I have no god father  in the  industry.  It is because I constantly try to do something new and   because I work hard that people like making films with me.  I like the   heroines to be depicted sans vulgarity in my films.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I cannot bear hearing someone say, "Siddharth is  routine etc".  For  me, hits and flops are unpredictable.  I put the same  effort to the  biggest hit and the worst flop.</b></div><div style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;"> <b><img border="0" src="http://i.indiaglitz.com/telugu/news/SidhuInt150212_4c.jpg" /></b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On what audience want:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>People are wrong when say that the audience are not  yet ready for  experimental cinema.  Whenever I have been to the places  like Vizag,  etc., people say that the filmmakers should make different  films.  It  is nonsensical to place the burden on the audience if we are  not  willing/capable to make experiments.  I think LF is a small step in  the  right direction.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On the "inevitability" of multi-starrers:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I think we are going to see lot of changes in the  next 3-4 years.   Gone are the days when the audience used to go to the  theatre as if it  was a temple.  These days films have to make their  money in the first  two weeks.  Given this scenario, there is an  increasing tendency among  the producers to make multi-lingual films.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b>At this rate, multi-starrers are only inevitable.  We  first need to  put the term in the right perspective.  If two or more  superstars team  up, you call it a multi-starrer.  For example SVSC is an  example of a  multi-starrer.  Rang De Basanti is an example of ensemble  cast.  If a  superstar here is willing to rope me in, I will be happy to  be part of  the film (provided, of course, he likes the script, which, he  says, is  always his first criterion).  I say that we are living in  exciting  times.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On missing a K Vishwanath:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I wish I was born when a K Vishwanath garu or a  Jandhyala garu were  making films.  It is wondrous that I am still able  to hold my ground  despite the absence of such filmmakers.  I would like  to work with  fresh directors.  That's why I am quite popular with  assistant  directors.</b></div><div align="justify"> <b><span style="color: #660099;">On the LF tour:</span></b></div><div align="justify"> <b>I would like to invite all SouthMp3 & Tollyandhra.in viewers/readers  to be part of  our Love Failure tour in the coming days.  Please do join  me!</b></div></div></div></div>
