Howdhu Ree….this is another way of taking money from the audience and producing a film. That is what Pawan Kumar identified in his second film. In the days of people not coming to theatres taking money from them and making them to see the film is a good idea provided the film is made well.

In fact while coming to the theatre the money is collected from the viewers and then the film is screened. Now Pawan Kumar is collecting money even before start of the film. It is not like eating food and then paying the bill in the Hotel. It is giving money for the preparation.

However the thought is appreciable if it is legal and not enters in to any squabbles. Collecting money is also not easy task is what Pawan Kumar should know.

For ‘Lucia’ a thriller with mystery based on a lady protagonist Pawan Kumar has selected Shruthi Hariharan and Ninasam Satish is doing the prominent role.

The internet friends of Pawan Kumar were present at the media address. So far he has accrued Rs.57 lakhs for the film from investors for his idea.

There was also a talent hunt for ‘Lucia’ 83 contestants prepared the area in which they are proficient and sent it across to Pawan Kumar. He is picking a few talents from this lot.

What is the guarantee for people money for ‘Lucia’ investment? A marginal interest rate is fixed and it is only after film is screened the money drops to the bank accounts via net banking.
