The film was supposed to begin in 2018 but the launch had to be postponed due to unknown reasons. It went on floors in March in Seattle.
The story centers on the murder of an important character and the subsequent investigation. It’s a silent film, shot in Telugu and Tamil, and is likely to also release in Hindi, Malayalam, Kannada, and English because about 60 per cent of the team are from Hollywood.
The film has been jointly written by Hemant and Gopi Murali. Hemant made his debut in 2010 with A Flat, and later directed Vastadu Naa Raju, and Mumbai 125 KM.
The director revealed in reports recently that both Madhavan and Anushka have performance-oriented roles. This is his first film with the two actors.
Meanwhile, Madhavan recently posted on Instagram that the entire crew of Silence took a break from shoot to watch the two-decade-old Madhavan and Shalini-starrer Alaipayuthey or Sakhi in Telugu.
