Gandhada Gudi

Puneeth Rajkumar who we fondly call as Appu has made such a great attempt to show Karnataka's wide diversity and rich forest, never done before. This is a great journey we can witness through Puneeth's eyes. Great collaboration from Amoghavarsha, Prateekh Shetty, Ajaneesh and the entire team. This is not the documentary, it is an experience to cherish the whole life, Ver well scripted, cinematographed and indulges you as if you are sitting next to Puneeth and become part of the journey. Congrats to Ashwini for completing and bringing to the audience. This is going to be an everlasting gift for us.

Gandhada Gudi is less a documentary, more of a personal travel vlog featuring Puneeth Rajkumar and it felt all too special for this very reason. Having to be part of his journey through those must visit places in Karnataka, the way he eagerly enjoys each one of these places was a sight to behold. Every time it started feeling like a documentary, the travel vlog narrative takes over and all the places visited are edited seamlessly to ensure there is a proper flow throughout.

This was a very special film so it will be tough to review without revealing anything and it is because, it is more important to experience it on the big screen rather than listing out the places they visit here itself. The songs have been inserted well. Once again, getting to know Appu closely, to see him be "him" on screen as enjoyed everything like an innocent child, all I can is thanks to the makers for giving us audience an opportunity to witness it and be part of the journey.

I wish there was no interval. A film like this didn't need one. But again this is not a film to talk to critique based on first half and second half. The fans at the premiere show were loud initially but even they understood, the best way to enjoy every frame, every shot of the film is without making that noise. They couldn't contain their excitement at times yet they were thoughtful about enjoying every frame Appu is on and the importance to be able to listen to every word he utters. It is that important a film and I will definitely want to thank the fans for being that understanding in a sold out show.

Absolute masterpiece. Where a hero travel and explore beauty of nature in Karnataka explaining wildlife and its preservation.

It's a journey of a hero.

A perfect tribute to Puneeth Rajkumar sir Hope his dream project touch his soul.

Picture perfect photography by pratheek Shetty and wise cuts by him as well

A true support was from ajaneesh lokanath awesome background score with songs enhanced the immersive experience of this epic saga.

It's difficult to conclude it has a docu-drama but it's a definitely a different unique experience from Indian cinema A responsible work by Amoghavarsha Literally he got the best he could.

Lots of appreciation for Amoghavarsha for making effort to bring this on big screen

Truly 10/10 experience 1 hr 38mins runtime.

This docu-drama can be mistaken for a wildlife documentary from the trailer, but is truely a cinema which celebrates Karnataka's diverse natural heritage and an unforgettable experience through the eyes of our beloved "Appu". It's a total visual grandeur that make us Kannadiga's proud of our land, coupled with very beautifully composed bgm. There are - candid conversations which makes us smile unknowingly; small tales which makes us curious while listening; social messages which is not forced but need us to understand; song bites which celebrates the culture depicted; moments which connects to Appu sir and make us teary eyed. His respect and concern towards the nature and cultural heritage make us feel pride in saying he will always be our role model. This movie also felt like one last conversation personally with our Rajaratna. Just can't thank enough for this project to Amoghavarsha. Thank You for this beautiful experience.

Loved the documentary, I was bit skeptical to watch documentary as I don't understand the language much, but a very well composed and portrayed film. I would say must watch for everyone who loves nature and who are not much into nature too, this documentary probes one to appreciate the nature and how lucky we are to live in this wonderful world. I'm sure Puneeth fans love it more to see through his eyes. Amogh has documented and narrated experiences very well, great photography and outstanding music by Anjaneesh throughout. Overall a great experience of 96 minutes makes one to enjoy the beautiful visuals, appreciate nature and hopefully do something to to preserve it.
