The Village Novel Adaption into Web-Series

Yes, Amazon Prime Video released New Web Series titled ‘The Village’ is adapted from this Graphic Novel ‘The Village’ by Shamik Dasgupta. Milind Rau directed the Web-Series ‘The Village’ 2023. Here is what director has to Say about ‘The Village Graphic Novel’ Adaption into Web Series.
Milind, what about the story of this graphic novel inspired you?
Milind: There’s a lot that I liked, but what really inspired me was the real, human story that is at the centre of it all. The Village, set in southern Tamil Nadu, is about a man who loses his family in a ghost town that is believed to be dangerous and haunted. The story takes place over one night and shows the efforts of this man, along with those who help him, in rescuing his family.
After reading the novel, I wanted to expand this world further; I thought of exploring why the town was deserted and what emotional connection these villagers (played by Muthu Kumar, George Maryan and Aadukalam Naren) might have that pushes them to help the protagonist (played by Arya) save his family. The fact that we were talking about India’s first live-action adaptation of an Indian graphic novel, and that it is in Tamil, made it all the more so attractive.
