Manish Murthy is a budding cinematographer in Tamil cinema. He was born in Karaikal but did his schooling in Chennai. He was not formally trained in cinematography but got himself trained in the job when he got a job in Sun TV.

He also became the associate cinematographer in South Indian film industry. When a movie ' Madras Click to look into! >> Read More... ' (2014) was announced he bagged this wonderful opportunity to join the cast and crew of the movie and quit his job in Sun TV to further his dream to capture beautiful shots behind the lens.

‘Madras’ was a movie by Pa. Ranjith. He has assisted Mr.Murali (cinematographer) in films like Madras and Andhala Rakshasi. Later, he made his debut as a principal cinematographer for the movie ‘Unakkena Venum Sollu’ which was directed by Srinath Ram lingam.

Debutant cinematographer Murthy got noticed by everyone. It was a horror genre movie. The director gave him enough independence and space to do his work.

This helped him to prove his talent and creativity. Since it was a horror movie, most of it had night scenes, and the cinematographer did not use any artificial light to catch the exact mood of the scene. The lighting in the scenes was natural which the cinematographer had pointed out many times.

He said that his creativity was possible because of the team effort of the movie. Most of the shots in this film were decided on the set itself. He had a dialogue with the director before any scene that was required to be shot and with director’s approval, he did a meticulous job in cinematography which was commendable for a debut director of photographer.

Since the film was based on a bound script, everyone knew the exact scene sequence in advance. This helped the team and crew of the movie to sketch the visual work in advance. Reports suggest that Manish knew Srinath, the director of Unakkena Venum Sollu for a long time. Before this horror movie, they were in a talk for another script, but that did not happen.

But earlier, while working with Srinath for a short film titled ‘Theechedi,’ they decided to work on a feature film and thus the project ‘Unakkena Venum Sollu ’ was born and conceptualized. The first part of the movie ‘Unakkena Venum Sollu’ was engaging while the second half was undoubtedly the best more appreciated.
