"Direction is no easy job. Though I have worked closely with several filmmakers like Shankar and Goutham Menon, I was thrilled when I took the mantle of direction," says popular cinematographer Ravivarman.

Even as his maiden directorial venture 'Moscowin Kaveri' is getting ready to hit the screens, Ravivarman says, "I take things as it comes. I never had plans to become a cinematographer. Similarly becoming a director too was not my priority. The opportunity came and I grabbed it with both hands."

On the film, he says, "Moscowin Kaveri is about the new generation romance. Today's romance is not so strong and it is based on situations and needs. The movie is more like a travelogue, which begins from a village and ends in a city."

"Newcomers Harshavardhan, Rahul Raveendran and Samantha play the lead roles. We shot the movie in Karaikal, Pudhucherry and Chennai. It is an emotional drama with interesting elements laced all through," the cinematographer-filmmaker adds.
