Chennai:
Actor Vikram's role in upcoming Tamil action film Thaandavam is inspired from Daniel Kish, a blind American expert in human echolocation.
Directed by A.L Vijay, the film is releasing in about 900 screens on September 28 worldwide.
"One part of the character played by Vikram is inspired from real life, but not the entire plot. The story of the film was developed and for the blind character's behaviour, Daniel became the inspiration," said Dhananjayan of UTV Motion Pictures.
Vikram underwent special sessions with Daniel Kish while preparing for his role. Human echolocation is a technique of detecting objects, their position and sound by sensing echoes.
