Either we will all be in for a surprise or Toxic team will get the shock of their life. Either one of two parties will have their realization.

I was thinking about this, Toxic team has had a specific tone from the beginning till now, they haven't tweaked their tone or style of narration despite criticism. Its making me think they have thought it all through, they are deliberately doing it for a reason known to Geetu, Yash and God.

After the Raya intro video, Geetu had a counter to the criticism saying female indulging in wild intimacy is a subject of consent. So its safe to interpret in this way that she was defending the intro video against the criticism, that she didn't expect it to get criticized so much.

Later they pushed the release date further, I thought they would alter their style after the apparent criticism, but with Ladies and Ladies they went further bold and obvious with their tone. I hope this is planning and not over confidence, because it sure is looking like over confidence.

So many people are criticizing it, even diplomatic reviewers are outright criticizing it for its corny content. No movie team would expect and accept hate or criticism for its movie even before release. This team is hitting exactly where they get all the criticism from. This approach makes me think they have thought it all through, movie eventually will surprise the critiques by outperforming what was expected.

So am I the only one that liked Ladies and Ladies?

I feel like we are judging every bit of it, I don't blame audience for it because the team released weird materials before. Looks like we are continuing the scrutiny in places where it isn't required.

Loved the ladies of the film, they all look like they have their own distinct personalities who contributes to the story.

Also I liked the last line, 'here comes the twist ladies, don't forget the predictable spectacle of men and their cocks'. I liked how they used the word 'predictable' like making a mockery of men with guns. The world is indeed a reflection of ambition of masculinity, their obsession to rule the world. In the process men have destroyed living ecosystem just out of their ego.

Lets see, I'm definitely excited for the movie✌️

My take on Moda Kavida Vatavarana

First of all the movie is available in limited screens, I had been to 1 30 show, most of the seats were empty.

It is a simple story made complicated with good screenplay, the story is awesome, something that Darling Krishna would master in. Actors still gotta work on their skills, it was so evident that they were acting I couldn't feel the flow due to actors lack of compelling screen presence.

Positives: Great screenplay, I truly loved how well thought it was, even though it feels complicated and messy the end makes it all better. The characters are well written, can understand their approach without feeling stranger to them, emotional aspect of the movie is logical, almost of the movie is logical for that matter. Love story narrated in Suni style. Music was truly good, suits well with the situation.

Is it worth to spend money on?

I watched this movie for 2 reasons, Suni is one of my favorite director, his old classics are still my favorite, I wanted to give this movie a try. Do I regret it? Definitely not. I paid 200 for my ticket, gladly the runtime was around 2 hours, I went alone to this movie so I definitely enjoyed my time.

Go to this movie if you have nothing special to do in free time, definitely family could be taken along, after a long time a Kannada movie is worth spending time on. If you don't watch in theaters you'll not miss anything, aramagi ott nalli nodkoli.

Savira palu better than KD bodi.

Shukravara tea 🍵 ready ide banni friends. Got new updates on the Infamous 2009 controversy between Aindrita and Nagathihalli Chandrashekar.

So back in 2009 Aindrita was working with the director Nagathihalli Chandrashekar (NC) in movie Nooru Janmaku. During a song shoot taking place in overseas, Aindrita alleged that NC slapped her on face for remuneration disagreements. She also alleged that he kept calling her phone outside shoot hours especially night time. He tried establishing intimacy between them which she refused, and he kept touching her inappropriately.

She raised the issue to Karnataka Film Chamber where Ambarish and Jayamala resolved the matter, apparently Jayamala showed her discomfort over NC's act of slapping.

Interesting thing is, Nagathihalli dismissed allegations of Andy while talking to media saying he never slapped her, in reverse he blamed her for lazy and disrespectful attitude on sets.

My uncle that works in film field told me that Nagathihalli had indeed slapped Andy, he is quite a misogynistic in general and bad mouths heroines off camera. He apparently takes pride in his genius filmmaking, thinks he is the only genius, he is overly controlling and expects people to listen to him without challenging him.

I'll tell you the worst part, Ambarish, Ravichandran blamed Andy for taking matters to media, Ravi said she ruined the reputation of kfi by openly discussing this matter to news media. Ambarish said casual touching shouldn't be taken as harassment and said Andy did mistake by taking this matter to media which she could have resolved internally or privately. Ivrella namma ganyaru🙏

One thing I loved here was Andy's decision of openly voicing her concern, if she hadn't done this they would have blamed her saying she was probably insecure about her own case that made her hesitate to openly talk about it. Probably would have even dismissed as false rumors. Since she was vocal about it, the issue was forced to be discussed in larger forum.
