Synopsis:
Simple Agi Ondh Love Story is
a 2013 Kannada romantic comedy film written and directed by Suni. This
movie is considered as an experiment in the Kannada film Industry with
all the cast and crew being newcomers. The movie is creating box office
records though the movie lacks a star cast except Srinagar kitty who has
done a cameo. The movie is being noted for its fresh story, high
technical aspects and most importantly for its dialogues which has set a
new trend among the Kannada film goers. According to sources, the movie
will be dubbed in Telugu and will be remade in Hindi.
The film revolves only around two
characters mainly the hero and the heroine and hence not much characters
can be seen in the movie. The film was extensively shot in Pollibetta
in Kodagu district of Karnataka and surrounding places
near Madikeri and Chikmagalur during rainy season and had used a special
camera to capture the nature lavishly.
Released with much hype and
anticipation, the film received tremendous response from both the
critics and audience. The movie has set new standards in the Kannada
Film Industry wherein people who were not used to Kannada films, have
watched the movie 2-3 times. The movie justified its hype with a good
storyline, noteworthy camera work and memorable dialogues. The songs
also created a lot of impact among music freaks especially the song
“Baanali badalago” with its lavish picturization and melody. Rediff gave
the movie a 4/5 and concluded “Simple Agi Ondh Love Story is a must-see
film for all those in love, for the freshness in narration and
dialogues. The movie has set a new trend after Yograj Bhat’s films, be
in its making, technical aspects or the overall quality of the film.
Lifeu Ishtene
Watch Pawan Kumar's debut movie Lifeu Ishtene. A refreshingly breezy romantic film.
Synopsis:
Synopsis:
Lifeu Ishtene is a Romantic comedy. One of the hit films of 2011.
‘First Love’ – is it real or is it over rated!?
We all have been through an age where we
were friends with the opposite sex, we would play together and have fun
and it would not mean anything else. As we grow up the equations begins
to change. The natural instincts take over and the same friendship
starts developing new meanings. But within the social structure of life,
these new feelings are referred with a more acceptable terminology
called LOVE! It’s natural for a young boy to get attracted to a young
girl, but he can’t simply be attracted, to be human he has to be
in love. So his mind convinces him that he is in love. But is he,
really?
This whole experience of falling in and
out of love forms the theme of the movie. All of it shown with extremely
hilarious scenes that not only entertain but also allows one to think
of all the cute and stupid things one has done in their early 20’s. All
in all it’s a feel good movie filled with incidents involving
love, breakups, rejections and marriage.

The Conjuring and Indian Cinegoers
It is only few months back I started watching Horror films. I have been ignoring them for a long time now. But once I started, I have become more and more fascinated with them. Business of scaring is not that easy. After I heard good words about the The Conjuring directed by James Wan who helmed Saw earlier, I thought that this was the right film to go to the theater to experience horror in full blown proportion.
All my excitement of enjoying the movie vanished as the audience in the hall didn't stop laughing and talking loudly scene after scene. They were talking, laughing, clapping as if they wanted to prove that they are not at all scared by the film. It must be noted that in the film, clapping by the ghost in the beginning portion of the film is used extremely well. The audience showed even more enthusiasm in clapping every now and then as the characters starts wandering in their newly occupied house, ruining the effect on screen by large extent. But fortunately, movie got scary enough to shut most of them even though not all. After I posted about this on Facebook, got to know that the scenario was same in many other theaters also. Many people I know who went to watch this movie had to bear really bad audience!
It is noted that in India people go for to theater not with the intention to watch movie but to hang out, eat, to have good time. I have noticed that many a times people land up to theater without even knowing which movie is playing! They start asking who is the hero of the film after being seated for the film. Once it starts boring them, they start commenting on the scenes causing irritation to those who are really interested in watching.
There are some movies that asks for complete attention of the audience. One needs to get completely absorbed with the mood of the film. In the recent time, Ship of Theseus and Lootera are two Indian films that fall into this category. They cater to a different sensibility altogether. Unless one gets to immerse completely in them, it is not possible to appreciate. But with the nuisance creating audience, whole experience can get very very frustrating. I was fortunate that I didn't go through it while watching both unlike my brother who had terrible experience while watching Lootera ( There were hardly 10 people in the theater when I watched it :-) )
For me, watching a movie is a serious business even if it is at home. I always prefer to watch a movie without any kind of disruptions. I don't like to skip the opening credits, I don't like to watch movies while eating meals/lying on the bed. So, obviously when a person is creating nuisance even at theater, it becomes very hard to enjoy what I am seeing.
Signing off the rant with a video of Julie Delpy's message to the audience who talk while show is on :
