karthickhemabushanam :
I liked the idea of a small boy helping the policemen to crack critical cases. Most of the children are getting addicted
to the video games in the new generation; I thought it would be perfectly alright to bring up a ghost character along
with it. Also I was aware that it would be a striking appeal to encourage children to play outdoor games than sitting in
house and getting addicted to computer games. So, naturally, it needed a pinch of darkness in the story, that’s what I
carried with blend of emotions. Plus I wanted to stress a point that how pitiful a woman without a child after her
marriage.
karthickhemabushanam :
No, I didn’t feel it was difficult to bring a ghost character helping a small boy rather I felt it was convincing to let
him play a pivotal role in it. I was careful that the darkside of the story should not compromise a relationship of boy
and girl. At any point of time, the readers can easily relate themselves with characters like Disha and Arjun.
karthickhemabushanam :
The characters and the plot evolved as I was writing. I had no intention of blending all the genres together. I only
followed the characters and wrote what they did.
karthickhemabushanam :
I’m always aware of the fact that I may die at any time. The life is not guaranteed for anyone. This awareness is what
letting me to do my job freely. I love to live each minute to the fullest.
karthickhemabushanam :
The main character comes first; I just follow him/her.
karthickhemabushanam :
I just get an idea and starts writing. Initially I did, but later I stopped plotting. Plotting wasn’t reliable; it stops
the imagination and the flow of the story. So I wisely choose not to plot a story any more.
