Director Krishnakumar Ramakumar’s film on scientist G D Naidu, featuring actor Madhavan in the lead, has been titled ‘G.D.N’.
The biopic will also feature actors Priyamani, Jayaram and Yogi Babu among others. Music for the film is by Govind Vasantha.
Sharing a poster announcing the title of the film on his Instagram timeline, actor Madhavan wrote, “Need all your blessings and good wishes.”
It may be recalled that the film is to be shot entirely in Coimbatore, the birthplace of the great man who was called the ‘Edison of India’, to ensure authenticity of his life and times.
Executive producer of the film, Muralidharan Subramanian, had in an earlier interview, said, “Almost 95 per cent of the film will be shot in the same place as it happened and the remaining five per cent will be shot abroad. A small portion of this five per cent that had to be shot abroad was already completed last year. The remaining portions will be shot as we go along.”
