Swathi Mutthina Male Haniye

Raj B Shetty, hope you are happy for instilling your beautiful ideology or philosophy on life, humans, love into a movie. When a poet or a philosopher makes a movie, it becomes like Swathi Muthina Male Haniye.

There are issues with the film, like it is slow moving at places where it was unnecessary. I like the essence of innocence in the face of Prerana's mother, is she like that naturally or is it acting? I don't know but her character was beautiful.

Women are sensitive, how much ever the world or the new age feminazism screams that we are tough, we are soft like a flower. The character Prerana represented this reality very beautifully, very naturally. I loved it, even though I know this movie doesn't deserve a complete 10 on 10 rating, I still give a 10 for the efforts. To the effort of making a movie in an Era of adrenaline pumping movies. Maybe he knew this film won't find success in the cruel, shrewd market but he still made it, to inspire some people that understands the essence in the movie. Thanks for this one.

At this point of time.

Only few gems like Raj B Shetty, Hemanth Rao and Rakshit shetty have got real guts to make a movie on this subject, even when the expectations of audience is stooping to new low every day.

Honestly speaking i dont remember having watched a movie in at least a decade that has used Basavanna's vaachana as lyrics for one of the movie songs. That itself should speak a lot about the quality of the movie.

Raj is an excellent story teller. He never acts, he just be himself and it shows. Not only him, a lot of other actors a dead natural. You cant even tell who is acting or who is just living their actual life. Such is the brilliance of this movie.

The scene where Raj explains the existence of Nandi battalu plant is top notch.

The idea of seeing others a human being, treating them as human being without their identity is somewhat fascinating to watch and it is essentially portrayed by Raj.

Only issue i had that i had to ask my wife is the movie really over twice just to confirm. Why such short length? I wish it never ended.

One more scene which i didnt like was the one with Meenu saaru. Even a fish is another being and it has right to exist, same thing is explained by Basvanna vachana but looks like shetty people find it hard to make a movie without referring sea food or animal cruelty.

I just loved it. Let me start with saying that this genre of film making is unlike most Sandalwood productions with no major item numbers and mega fight scenes or super star dance moves, but it's also not just about a patient's story. It's a wholesome view of what the counsellors, family members and others involved as well.

When pressed into a tight situation as portrayed in the film, it's very easy for the relatives and loved ones of the patients to forget that even medical and support staff have personal lives that they are sacrificing and what they go through. This can't be considered as ignorance but just a reaction to situations because they are so engaged with taking care of their loved ones in pain, they forget other factors involved. Same goes the other way round too, for the doctors to give personal touch to every patient that walks in because they are dealing with such situations multiple times each day. It's a beautiful and immersive film making experience showing the human side of dealing with loss; be it a life, love life or any form of relationship you have had for a long time.

People who have had their loved ones go through any long term medical conditions (not necessarily terminal), like old folks who need constant care and the families have to manage them along with their personal lives etc...will view life in a whole new light after watching this film. I remember always blaming the doctors for showing up whenever they want and us as caregivers always having to wait for them and asking for help at whatever cost, it's easy sometimes to forget that they are also bound by ethics and have their personal lives to deal with. And doctors too should understand that they are the only point of contact for people looking for answers. I am praying that this film reaches more and more people because with how medical care is nowadays and the conditions and diseases that are rampant, eventually most of the population will go through this phase in life either as doctors, patients, caregivers or even just helpless bystanders. They should be able to understand and prepare for the future so they can deal with it better and know what resources are available to help them deal with it.

Kudos to the entire crew for making this "completely relevant yet taboo" topic into a film experience. This felt very personal for me especially because I had to deal with a few such situations first hand and it's so relevant to current times because the one goal we have is to keep our loved ones with us for however long we can, letting go of someone or something becomes that much more difficult.

I also want to say that somehow, people have forgotten about the "film making" experience and have jumped into mainstream movie making with item numbers and power figures as the core theme. But it's so good to see a film that can make a difference in someone's day to day life and how they perceive every interaction. This is what has gone away from cinematography, the core theme of education, values and small things that matter like just gazing out the window. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy a good mega movie with killer numbers that I can sing when I'm down and need a "pick me up" sort of a thing like "everybody is a gangster, until you see the monster" and drive around feeling like a star. But, watching something so impactful stays with you and teaches you to bear with the emotions and limitations of a human life. That's goes a really long way than playing a power number a few times until the next one comes along.

Overall, I felt every rain drop in the background as an emotion and every dialogue felt personal and every moment as something I experienced. So yea, this review has been quite long and extremely dramatic.

While this movie is not for everyone, if you connect with the characters- its a very enjoyable and emotional experience.

The characters are just ordinary people who just happen to have cross paths. Raj B. Shetty's performance is quite good but Siri takes the show. The development of her character and the choices she makes are presented uniquely. You travel with the character.

The movie presents profound thoughts on deep philosophies about life. A woman who thinks she knows what life is learns about it from a dying man. The themes and metaphors are very idealogical and might not resonate with everyone.

An enjoyable emotional experience.

Only few movies teaches you great life lessons and makes you feel like attending a therapy. This is that kind of a movie for me. Another well written Masterpiece by the great Raj B Shetty. The biggest power of this movie is those hard-hitting dialogues and those metaphors used each and every character stays in our mind, feels personal and make us feel bad for them. And the duration too make us feel for th film. Siri Ravikumar done a fabulous job as the main lead. Raj B Shetty's character comes for a limited time on screen but has an impact through the movie. All the technical aspects were at the point of saying no faults. A must watch movie to everyone.
