Vineeth Sreenivasan Launches Thriller Film Karam
Vineeth Sreenivasan explained that the idea for Karam came to him in 2023. Noble Thomas had been sharing a story with Vineeth, hoping he would direct and act in it. Vineeth liked the script from the very first draft. However, since he was busy with his movie Varshangalkku Shesham, he asked Noble to wait a year. Noble agreed, saying he trusted Vineeth to handle the project. This is how Karam came to life.
The director also spoke about Thira, which he considers a very personal film. Even though the movie did not perform well in theatres, it earned critical praise and later developed a loyal fanbase. Vineeth said he was surprised by the long-lasting popularity of Thira and the positive response when he used the tagline “from the director of Thira” for promoting Karam. He said, “A film which we considered a failure in its time, reminded me that it was not actually one, when I saw people’s reaction to Karam’s promotional material.”
