Ramesh Aravind's monkey tricks

Ramesh Aravind is one Kannada actor who is constantly innovating. What with him being tech savvy and a mind that works overtime, his ideas to market a new film never cease to amaze his fans.
The actor is now going all out towards releasing this film, which is directed by his long-time associate Rajendra Karanth. The film is a complete laugh-riot, much like how Ramesh's films usually are.And to add to the buzz surrounding the film, the team has come up with a rather novel way of promoting it, using monkeys in a trailer.
The teaser trailer has over half-a-dozen monkeys using bananas to write the title of the film -- Mangana Kaiyalli Manikya. The 30-second trailer has been mailed by the actor to his close friends and mediapersons, who seem to have only praise for the novel ways Ramesh comes up when it comes to promoting his films.
Here's how the team actually shot the trailer. Recently, the team rather imaginatively wrote the name of the film on a street by using bananas. Within no time, the month monkeys in the neighbourhood scrambled to the spot and began feasting on them.
"And this bit was captured on camera and was played on reverse during the promos. So it seemed like the monkeys were actually writing the title of the film," says a unit source. Trust Ramesh to always have a smart one up his sleeve!
