‘C U Soon’, an edge of the seat thriller, was shot entirely during the lockdown
CU Soon is a gripping drama about a software engineer from Kerala who has been assigned by his family to help his Dubai-based cousin find his missing fiancee, after she leaves behind a video-based suicide note. This feature film is unique for being shot with a phone. The trailer of “C U Soon” has created ripples across the internet for its unique and engaging storyline. The movie is shot in lockdown and produced by Fahadh Faasil who is also the lead actor in the film.
Talking about how the film and the story came into existence, Mahesh shares, “Even when the country was under lockdown, Mahesh and I were constantly in touch via zoom calls because our film Maalik was also put on hold. After a while, Mahesh started working on a new script which he sent over to me and I was instantly blown off by the simple yet impactful story.”
Talking more about what sealed the deal for him, Fahadh continues, “He even shot the first few scenes with Roshan and Darshana and I was stunned to see the execution coming out so beautifully. That’s when I decided that I want to not only act in it but I would also produce the film.”
CU Soon is directed and edited by Mahesh Narayanan, featuring cinematography by Sabin Uralikandi. The film is known to be Fahadh’s second collaboration with Mahesh which the audience is looking forward to.
The one of its kind edge of the seat thriller was shot entirely during the lockdown and will premiere globally on Amazon Prime Video on the 1st of September 2020.
