O2

O2 will capture you for an entire of 2 hours, there is not one scene that is insignificant to the movie. Every scene is equally important and plays as hidden hints to the crazy climax in the end. O2 has broken all rules of commercial cinema. Lot of talented individuals have debuted in the film. Including the amazing directors who have put in extra effort into creating something out of the box! Loved the way the movie seamlessly blends science and love. Two concepts that are important to life, yet polar opposites.

The music adds serves as the cherry on top this this gripping story. Thoroughly enjoyed the sound design, and the songs!

O2 is a must watch especially for the Kannada audience that have been waiting for something new and something refreshingly different!!

O2 left the audience with too much to think about, cleverly merging concepts of science and love. They managed to convey to the audience that love is the real oxygen we require to live. It was a film filled with content, that grips the viewer not letting them go until the very last second. O2 if I may say was disturbing in the best ways.

The highlight of the film was definitely the story, which revolves around the character of dr. Shraddha played brilliantly by Ashima Ranganath. Shraddha refuses to accept the concept of death, and seeks to find a way to revive people after their death. The story encircle her journey in accepting death as a part of life, which is portrayed through cultural metaphors of shiva the god of destruction and verses performed through yakshagana. I thoroughly enjoyed the various hidden metaphors in the film.

Overall I believe o2 is a film that has broken the rules of the commercialised Kannada industry, providing a fresh, new and well though perspective!

Finally watched 02 after curiously waiting since we saw the trailer - and it was a mind-blowing goosebumps movie, probably first of its kind in Kannada! Different bold story and genre is unique and worth embracing and encouraging- just as Appu and Ashwini have done to produce this movie from PRK You forget the actors and connect with all the characters completely - especially Dr Shradha and Osho played by Ashika and Ragav Highlight of movie and its gripping effect on you is the BGM, pleasing voice in songs and mesmerising music by Vivaan, Ninagagi touches your heart and Nashe seeps into your very soul and stays with you for long!

Location and cinematography is simply stunning and teleports you to the beach, lighthouse and labs Cultural context weaved into story is clever and works effortlessly, giving a seamless switch from lab science story in one place to old school meen curry romance in Mangaluru Medical & research setting is very detailed and accurate, will inspire young minds with its message of striving to do what's not been done before Must watch in theatres movie for its overall experience of all elements of past, present and possible future coming together in right crisp proportion & executed excellently by debut Directors Prashanth Raj and Raghav Nayak! Big applause to 02 team for Kannada content on par with any other industry in India and the world! 100 10/10 for 02! Proud of our KFI!

Brilliant movie with an amazing storyline, soothing music and beautiful acting. Directors Prashanth Raj and Raghav has poured in all their creativity to give this masterpiece. A science fiction which is not very common in Kannada industry is a must watch. Human emotions like love and grief is beautifully weaved into the storyline throughout film, keeping the audience glued with curiosity til the end. Unexpected climax is the highlight which you can look forward to see. It makes you believe soulfull soul connections are for real. Overall an amazing team work love to the entire team and wish you all success. I loved the camerawork and locations. The lighthouse scene with the lanterns was so beautiful. I want to visit that place. Searching on Google for that. Also the yakshagana portion was beautifully shot.

When you mix two genres of love and thriller, it usually ends up into a clumsy disaster. That's what I expected when I watched the trailer but I was wrong. Expert navigation of screenplay and execution has pulled it out in an outstanding way. I remember Tamil director Mani Ratnam's movies like Bombay, where he has actually told a love story in a thrilling environment. But for a debutant director duo to achieve the same is a pleasant surprise. Hats off to the entire team!! The unexpected climax is one the finest ever in Indian cinema history. It takes guts to do an open-ended finish ... especially for new comers..and in Kanada cinema!
