Director- Upendra.I am god, god is great.India is great, Indian Culture is great, Indian Tradition is great, Indian Heritage is great, Indian Soil is great, but Indians are not Great.A walked so that Animal could crawl.The way the script is written in a reverse screenplay format is quite interesting. I haven't seen many films that use this style of script writing.The print of the film I watched on YouTube wasn't the best-looking, which enhanced the viewing experience and gave it a more found footage vibe. The film doesn't look good enough for it to have taken 1.25 crores to make.If we disconnect the first fifteen minutes and use it as a short film, the film would definitely have been an easy 5/5.After the credits roll, we learn that it was a film within a film, and thus, he isn't caught by the cops.The character of the producer is interesting in how she tries to make the protagonist remake the ending of his film so she can submit it to foreign film festivals. What I couldn't understand was her willingness to give her body up to the protagonist. Maybe she felt sorry for him.The protagonist being anti-love is quite a trait, and his growing to appreciate it doesn't feel forced.The character of the female lead is also written excellently, with how she has to deal with some unforeseen mishaps altering the trajectory of her life.The reveal of the ill businesses the female lead is a part of is a great twist, and so was the ending reveal of her doing all that against her free will.The second half has a rushed feel and has too many events going on in succession, beginning with the protagonist's return to filmmaking and wishing to bring the evil deeds to light.The first fifteen minutes have a different tone from the rest of the film, which makes it appear as something that doesn't fit in the film.The way he apprehends the criminals by recording videos of them is an interesting choice. The scene at the end with the burning house was an awesome visual to end the film on.Overall, this is an interesting film which could have been made better by a more polished person. I will try to watch his film Upendra next, as it looks interesting.
