<p>Currently, busy promoting the film in every possible way, Harish says that this time round he is making sure that he leaves no stone unturned as far as promotion is concerned. <br /><br />“Promotions have become such a huge part of movie making. No matter how good a film is, if it’s not promoted well then it will not bring people to the movie halls,” says Harish, who is making a comeback into direction after a year. <br /><br />The film, Harish says, has an original story which every youngster must watch. The movie may seem like a thriller but one shouldn’t get misled by its title. “The reason I used that title Gun was because it plays an important role in the protagonist’s life. He reacts very differently when he sees a gun,” he says.<br /><br />Though Harish’s previous film, Kalakaar, didn’t do well at the box-office, it definitely showcased him as a promising director. And now with Gun, Harish realises the pressures and the expectations that people might have from him. <br /><br />“I learnt a lot while making Kalakaar. So when I started shooting for Gun I made sure that I didn’t repeat my mistakes and also brought in some changes in my approach towards the subject,” he says. <br /><br />He roped in many talented actors and technicians. “Each one of them has contributed tremendously. Getting top technicians and crew was difficult but this was made possible by my producer K Murli who gave me the confidence and the boost to rope them in. They made my job easy and I felt like a newcomer who had the perfect launch pad,” says Harish. <br /><br />When asked if he would take another break after Gun, Harish says, “The story for me is the bible. If I get good original stories, I will surely direct again. I am looking forward to directing an action film next. I will not be acting in all the films I direct. There are so many talented actors in the film industry whom I would love to direct.” <br /><br />So who are his best actors? “My dream is to direct Ananth Nag and Rani Mukherjee, and amongst my contemporaries, without question it would be Sudeep,” he signs off. <br /></p>
