One of the finest cinematographers in the history of Indian cinema, Santash Sivan (Dil Se, Before the Rains) has at last been acknowledged in the international arena.

The master camera-wielder, who is known for his poetic shots and innovative angles, is going to be working in a British film which has no Indian connection. The work on the movie will start in September, and Santosh S is being tight-lipped about it. Reason: he is contractually bound not to divulge details of the project to anyone.
