Arun Mozhi, the documentary filmmaker and film director passed away on Sunday at the age of 49. As per the reports by India Today, his death took place as a result of cardiac arrest which he suffered while watching a film at the Japanese Film Festival, currently taking place in Chennai. The mortal remains are being kept at his home in Thiruvanmiyur.
He, in the five-minute-long video, opened up about the director and what role he played in his life. He said, “He had called me earlier and I couldn’t pick up as I was in London for location recce. When I called him back, he said, “Mysskin, I heard your film is shaping up well. I wish you all the best.” Many people have said that he hasn’t achieved anything. According to me, he’s the biggest achiever. He is like a zen saint.”
Apart from being a director, Mozhi was also a social activist filmmaker. He has also made various documentaries on social problems namely Nilamosadi, Isaivaanil Innondru, Moondravadhu Inam and Beware of Commissions and others.
