BEHIND THE SCENES
Here’s a look at what went behind the musical journey of ‘Nobody gives a f**k!’
After the musical screenplay was ready with the initial animatic, the talented Sameeruddin was called on board to bring the film to life through music! The lyrics were improvised and created by both Sameeruddin and Asha-based on the screenplay and the story of each character. The animatics were then tuned to match with the catchy lyrics. Once the animation was going to reach completion, we did the final recording where ‘Rosemary’, the lead character was beautifully voiced by Soniya Nair. Watch a snippet of this crazy journey!
