Cast

Production

Development

Hridayam was officially announced in December 2019, set to be produced by Visakh Subramaniam and co-produced by Noble Babu Thomas, starring Pranav Mohanlal, Kalyani Priyadarshan, and Darshana Rajendran, intended to be released during Onam 2020.[7] The film marks the comeback of film studio Merryland Studio into film production after a hiatus of 30 years, under the new company Merryland Cinemas.[8] Vineeth told in an interview that the characters in the film draws inspiration from moments and memories from his and his wife's lives and their friends' from college and life beyond that.[9] According to Vineeth, Hridayam is about a young man named Arun Neelakandan and "tracks his journey right from when he was 17 to 30 years old. We have tried to convey the various highs and lows in his life, his friendships, love, emotional ups and downs, career-related uncertainties, up to the time he is about to be a family man".[10]

Filming

The film began principal photography in early February 2020.[11] After a schedule in Kochi, filming was shifted to Kollengode, Palakkad for a two-day schedule. The film's main location was Chennai.[12] Filming was paused in March 2020 due to a 21-day COVID-19 lockdown in India. By then about 50 percent of the film was complete, primarily featuring Pranav and Darshana. Filming was put on hold indefinitely after the surge of COVID-19 pandemic. It was resumed in January 2021. Kalyani joined the sets. Vineeth recalled in an interview that he never saw Pranav reading his dialogues on location as he would have learned it by rote. Significant parts of the film takes place in a college.[13] It was shot at KCG College of Technology in Chennai, where Vineeth and his wife studied.[14] That schedule was concluded in Kochi on 21 January. Vineeth said that Hridayam gave him the most fun working in a film since Thattathin Marayathu.[9] Another schedule in Chennai was concluded on 11 February, about 95 percent of the film was complete by then.[15][16] Principal photography was complete by mid-March, with one song remaining to be shot with limited crew. The film, which was originally charted to shoot for 100 days in multiple schedules was able to complete in 60 or more days.[17] The follow-up 5-day song shoot was held in July 2021 in Andhra Pradesh.[18] Post-production of the film was completed by October 2021.[19]

Music

Main article: Hridayam (soundtrack)

The music for the film was composed by Hesham Abdul Wahab. In early 2020, Vineeth went to Istanbul to record pieces of music for the film. Actor Prithviraj Sukumaran has sung a song for the film.[20] Beside acting, Darshana Rajendran has sung the track "Darshana".[21] The track list was revealed on 21 June 2021 on the occasion of Fête de la Musique.[22][23] Audio mastering of the film was completed by September 2021. Audio rights of the movie was acquired by Think Music. Hridayam is bringing back audio cassettes and limited edition vinyl records back to India, which was a dream shared by Vineeth, Hesham, and Think Music executives. Since its production was obsolete in the country, Think Music had to partner with a cassette manufacturer in Japan to import its physical copies to India.[24]

Release

When the shoot was through midway in March 2020, the producers announced that the film will have a theatrical release.[25] In October 2021, it was announced along with the song "Darshana" that the film will have a worldwide theatrical release in 21 January 2022.[26][27]
