Suryodaya Films International’s ‘Achanak’ brings the real picture of terror to the audience. The movie is unique in its subject and is going to be different in its aspects of production, songs, music and screenplay. The music is given by Mandar Khare, who has maintained the thrill and gravity of such a serious subject. The songs by singer- musician Saumitra and Valay Mulgunde are sung by Sadhana Sargam, Sunithi Chavan, Suresh Wadkar and Shankar Mahadevan. The highlight of the movie is a song sung by Mahadevan which portrays the intensity of terrorism.
To make the movie a success, Sangramsinh Appasaheb Nalawade whose has ventured for the first time in production has made many efforts. He has been backed by writer-director Yogesh Soman, a strong cast and an extensive use of technology. Yogesh has made his mark in the industry through theatre, one-act plays and serials on national television. ‘Achanak’ is his first attempt at direction. He has also taken the responsibility of its story. “Everybody is living in fear and there is an atmosphere of insecurity everywhere. We decide to present the face of terror to the people through commercial cinema,” says Soman. The cast includes Mohan Joshi, Reema, Sharad Ponkshe, Swapnil Rajshekhar, Digvijay Sawant, Amita Apte.
The movie keeps in touch with reality and is nowhere closer to the fantasy world.’ Achanak’ team has been bold to move away from the genres of comedy and family drama and try out a bold subject as terror.
