The image around a movie is often built around its title, as it sets the tone and mostly guides audience in what to expect from the movie. ‘Nimir’ starring Udhayanidhi Stalin, Namitha Pramod and Parvathi Nair is directed by the legendary Priyadarshan and produced by Santhosh T Kuruvilla. Director Mahendran, Samuthirakani and M S Baskar play vital character roles in ‘Nimir’.
 
Speaking about the movie’s title, director Priyadarshan says, “ Right from the days I started my direction career I have been a huge fan of Director Mahendran sir. I even wanted to work as his assistant but didn’t get that opportunity. I am so privileged and proud that he has done a vital character in ‘Nimir’. To direct a legend whom you have always looked up to is a matter of pride. It was Mahendran sir who suggested me the title ‘Nimir’ after listening to the story. We couldn’t have come up with a more suitable title than this for this story. Mahendran sir plays the protagonist’s father and this relationship is the core of this story. The movie has come out well and we all are very happy with the outcome “
