A big thank you to the actors & cinematographers for their generous support for our filmmakers.

All 4 Teams said their shoot went well & they got all the shots they had planned. Needless to say, they believe they could have done some things differently.

2 Teams did not take any photographs during or after the shoot. They will have to bring their parents to meet the headmaster.

The teams have 10 days to finish editing their micro shorts. So, the ball is now in the court of editors.

P.S. The next meetup is likely to be after Dasara.

Generic action thriller. The thought behind the story is good but it's explored on a very surface level. Writing that's supposed to feel intelligent doesn't feel like it's intelligent.

The protagonist barely runs into any problems on his journey, the one time he does it's so easily overthrown. A major twist for a supporting character lands very bland. Jokes were okay, we have a few sexual jokes which I didn't mind but then one of them made me raise my eye brows, especially since this is supposed to be a "family friendly" movie. VFX ge jaasthi dhud kharch maadi pls 😭😭🙏🙏.

Cinematography is pretty good, I wondered if this extremely smooth and light color palette would work and it did work. Music was okay, one standout but everything else was just fine.

Matthe villain antha bandre jaasthi buildup kottu last alli hero hatra tuss pataki aadre movie nodidhu waste ansuthe, please give this hero more troubles in his life. Police aagidhaga yenu madlilla antha heludru. Retire aagi vigilante aadru nu jaasthi yenu maadilla antha ansthu. 🤷

Story rant ahead (MILD SPOILERS FROM HERE):

So, loose maada's character is supposed to be this heinous, brutal, unrelenting, genocide committing psycho of a character. He shows up only after the interval, and honestly for the first part of this movie there's no villain at all, they just go on killing criminals with ease. But, this main villain is shown to be very brutal and during the last fight sequence he gets beaten up by Vijay SO EASILY. I mean yalla hype kotidhu waste aythu. Also the climax fight is VERY WEAK, it looks like your average fight scene from a mass movie and such a simple almost no friction figh scene is the climax of this movie 🙏. Barthane vadithane hogthane.

Don't even get me started about their family, bari shoki family erodhu. Ede family including heroine movie alli irilla andre movie yenu change aagthirlilla. There's literally no point of Shivarajkumar character's family to exist other than to call Shivarajkumar "Amma na ganda" or for the comedic bits, they carry to inherent value or threat to him. Sumne heroine idale. Adru mele item song bere, completely unnecessary.

We know it's short notice... but it's a surrealist anime at Sabha!!!

TPCC Bangalore: Special Screening at Sabha, Blr

Screening on Oct 3rd at 9:15 PM

"An anime made for the big screen!"

Mamoru Oshii’s Angel’s Egg is a near-wordless, surreal odyssey through a drowned, decaying world.

A young girl guards a mysterious egg while a shadowy man follows, questioning her faith and purpose.

With Yoshitaka Amano’s haunting visuals and a sparse score, it feels like a moving painting or waking dream.

Beautiful, opaque, and deeply spiritual, it rewards patience far more than explanation.

The Shoot of another 2-3 Micro Shorts has been pushed to Oct 11th (Thank you, Rishab! 🙃)

Team Nagashree, Team Adarsh, Team Jairaj, & Team Sunil will be shooting their micro-shorts this Sunday!

People interested in being part of our meetups can keep an eye out for the 13th edition after Dasara.

ATP I don't understand why we should support kfi. No promotions, no good content. Simply releasing films after films
