OpinionKannada cinema has produced an array of movies depicting conditions ranging from psychosis to personality disorders, yet the representation has only added to the stigma. Sanjana DeshpandeScreengrabEver since the making of the first Kannada film Sati Sulochana in 1934, Sandalwood has come a long way with recent hits like Kgf receiving global recognition. While attempts have been made to explore themes like mental health, the films usually leave the audiences disappointed with their caricature-like portrayal of the same. Even though landmark films have involved psychiatrists in producing and directing the movies, and contributing towards the plot, the films do not bear the desired outcome. Cinema has power over those who consume it and can influence people’s attitudes pertaining to subjects like mental health. Kannada cinema has produced an array of movies depicting conditions ranging from psychosis to personality disorders. Yet, these films have consistently let down the audiences with their...

ReviewDirector Kishore Moodbidri could have made a better attempt at forging a stronger connection between the flashback and the present in the script.Aravind ShwethaMalgudi Days has a very special place among both cinema and book lovers. Thanks are due to author Rk Narayan and Shankar Nag (director of the entertaining TV series), who not only made our childhood dreamy but also gave us a reason to get all nostalgic as soon as we hear the title song. The fictional town of Malgudi, according to many fans of the book, is derived from two famous localities in Bengaluru – Malleswaram and Basavanagudi. The ‘Dodmane’ in Agumbe, where portions of the TV series were shot, is still a favourite tourist destination. With so much hype around the title alone, the film Malgudi Days starts on a high note. The movie may not be on par with the path-breaking serial, but it has its own interesting elements.

SandalwoodThe film will be released in five languages – Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil and Hindi.Prajwal BhatThree years after the release of the commercial hit Kirik Party, Kannada actor and filmmaker Rakshit Shetty returned to the limelight with the launch of the trailer of his next film - Avane Srimannarayana. The launch of the trailer was held at the Shankar Nag Chitramandira in Bengaluru on Thursday. Speaking at the launch, Rakshit, who is the lead actor in the film, revealed that he had a single scene in mind before writing the film — his grand entry. “We began writing Avane Srimannarayana even before Kirik Party and today, I am happy that we are releasing the film just like how I wanted to make it,” Rakshit says. The idea of a grand entry is in stark contrast to Rakshit’s filmography so far. He has typically portrayed roles almost contrary to mass-appeal constructs.

Rima Das, a self-taught filmmaker, emerged with the impressive and empathic coming-of-age tale “Village Rockstars,” set in rural Assam. Premiered in 2017 at Tiff, her movie later grabbed several National Awards in India, including The Best Feature Film. Following its success, Das comes back with “Bulbul Can Sing”. Once again the director takes us to the idyllic location of her village Kalardiya. This strategy reminds of the eminent writer R.K. Narayan, who created the alluring universe of a daily routine and simplicity in his stories about fictional South Indian town Malgudi, adapted for a small screen by Shankar Nag. Narayan, a chronicler of common life and people, had a keen eye for detail. Das, alike him, compassionately portrays casual people in ordinary situations and shares the author’s interest in women acting against prevailing traditions. Yet the journey of her characters is much more intimate and intrinsic.

SandalwoodDirector Vijayanagendra gives us an absolute entertainer in his debut attempt, with Ganesh and other lead actors shining in their roles.Aravind ShwethaWith the ‘one nation one language’ pitch making headlines across the nation recently, Geetha could not have found a better release date. With the Gokak agitation – a successful language rights agitation in the 1980s that fought for the first-language status of Kannada – as the backdrop, this trademark Ganesh love story makes for an absolute entertainer, that is if you can ignore the slow screenplay. It was surprising to learn that in the last 35 years, nobody took the initiative to make a movie on the biggest Kannada language-related agitation that took place in Karnataka in 1982. There are a few short films, but a movement of this scale deserves a full-length movie. Akash (Ganesh), a software engineer, is raised by a single parent, Shankar (Devraj). He craves love and affection from both parents,...

A watchman opens the gate, and the car turns into a lane as music – a track seemingly inspired by Bee Gees’ Stayin’ Alive - starts playing. The car drives through the residential areas and main roads of ‘80s Bengaluru until it reaches a busy market. The man at the wheel switches off the music and gestures his friend on the passenger seat to get on with it. The car is a white Buick convertible. The friend gets down, walks up to a shop where he meets a man in all whites standing and smoking. He hands the man money in exchange for...

Amazon PrimeAmazon Prime Video is streaming all episodes of the old TV series, which was adapted from a few stories from Rk Narayan’s book of the same name.Sandeep NarayananYouTube screenshotThere are some things from our childhood we never forget. A familiar taste, a place we call home, the games we played, the music we heard and our old friends. Growing up in the late 80s and early 90s in Bombay (now Mumbai), most of my time was spent playing and creating a ruckus around the house or spending all my pent up energy in engaging in some destructive activity. But there was one tune that would make me run and sit in front of our Bush TV set and hum along with the title track – Malgudi Days. For the next 25 odd minutes I would be transported to the world of Malgudi and lose myself in the escapades of Swami and his motley crew.
