The film has triggered huge interest among fans and film buffs for a number of reasons. It may be recalled that director Pandiraaj had disclosed that he had written the script of this story in response to a challenge thrown to him. “I wrote the story of this film during the lockdown. A small spark led to this story. My assistant director Ashwin, who is now the director of the superhit film `Couple Friendly`, suggested a web series on an OTT platform and asked me to watch it, saying it would be to my liking,” Pandiraaj had said.
“I watched it and told him that I could write stories like the one he had suggested in a week`s time. He said, “Do it.” I accepted his challenge and did this story,” Pandiraaj had informed. Stating that they slowly started adding more situations and began improvising the script, Pandiraaj said, “We thought how it would be if we made this into a dark comedy.”
“After completing it, I kept it aside. That was the time director Jagan and my assistant Divya came. They saw this script and said, the writing in this was fantastic and wanted me to do this script as a film first,” the director explained. For the unaware, Parimala & Co, which is Pandiraaj`s 12th film as a director, will be a thriller and a comedy.
Sources in the know had informed IANS that the story of the film would revolve around a family. The story of the film would revolve around the unique nature and characteristics of each member of this family and the problems that they encountered. They had pointed out that the story, which begins in Chennai, would shift to Coimbatore and Palacode as it progressed.
