Marvelous director Maniratnam who seems to have lost his sheen with his Rawan and Kadali failing to impress movie lovers is now going back to olden days. Mani who highlighted emotional bonding in his superhit films like Roja and Bombay, both of which based on terrorist and riots backdrop, is hoping that film on Indo-Pak partition is the right way to get back on success track.
But one wonder whether people still appreciate such films as many films came on that subject and even decades have passed. Mani is already getting ready with the project and roped in Rensil who scripted stories of Kurban and Rang De Basanti to script story while he is on hunt for the star cast.
