Director Jayaraj @ Kaustubha 2010

Kaustubha 2010 had a distinguished guest in its premises when director Jayaraj graced the valedictory function with his presence.

The winners of the various competitions held at a span of two days were the lucky few who were given medals and certificates for their outstanding performance by none other than Mr Jayaraj himself.

Addressing the gathering that thronged the Eric Mathias Hall, Mr Jayaraj, many time national award winning director, spoke of cinema being a world of creation. Mr Jayaraj began his talk with a question as to how many would like to venture into the field of direction. Asking a series of question with unanimous approval for each question from the students, Jayaraj urged students to join this vibrant field at a young age. He talked about the enormous potential that lay in this field. He said anyone who had answered ‘yes’ to any of his questions had the potential to be a director.

Mr Jayaraj highlighted the importance of script in movie making and said that screenplay was the blue print of films. He encouraged students to come up with stories which he himself was willing to direct. Just like all his movies that have audience gripped to their seats, even his words of wisdom had the same magic in them.
