Sometimes (film)

Sometimes (Tamil: Sila Samayangalil) is a 2018 Indian Tamil-language psychological drama film, written and directed by Priyadarshan.

Produced by Isari Ganesh, Prabhu Deva and A. L. Vijay, the film features Prakash Raj, Sriya Reddy and Ashok Selvan.

Sheila George, a young woman on the cusp of marriage, was raped by a stranger while on a train journey and now, engaged to her childhood friend, wants to ensure she is not putting him at risk.

There are also four others: a senior policeman Karunakaran who we learn frequents prostitutes; a lawyer who received a blood transfusion which could have been infected; a real estate agent who ran over an AIDS patient while drunk-driving and took him to the hospital while both he and the victim bled on each other, potentially leading to infection; and a college-going boy who shared a syringe with a late fellow drug addicted college goer (now dead from AIDS).

Following of the release of De Dana Dan in December 2009, Priyadarshan announced that he was working on the script of a film on AIDS with Aamir Khan in the lead role.

Santosh Sivan was chosen as the film's cinematographer, with Beena Paul and Sabu Cyril as editor and art director respectively.

He also revealed that the film would be produced by his former associate A. L. Vijay's Think Big Studios and that it would be made at a cost of 20 million rupees, with the cast and crew getting a salary but not at their market rate.
