Koli Taal

Last night I saw the movie "Koli Taal", I really liked it. A universal story of a relationship between grandparents and grandson set in a part of the world full of very interesting regional customs, the film allows us to know beliefs, habits and landscapes that we do not know in our parts. But the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren has that load of unconditional love from older generations and is the same throughout the world, the happiness that a visit from a grandchild creates is highly demonstrated. The story that shows the ternuna and the happiness that this visit generates is sustained with suspense generated from the disappearance of the chicken and determining who was the culprit. The location is great and is excellently portrayed through a beautiful photograph. I highlight the performance of "grandfather", an endearing character.

It seems to me a film that is based on the love of grandparents towards grandchildren, which can be represented in cooking a delicious dish, as well as welcoming the family. I really love the sound of nature, the chirping of different types of birds that live in the place. It transports me to a true Paradise. I am struck by the faith that they profess to the Gods, the customs and the culture that they show through the scene in the Theater. I am a Latin woman and I am not used to seeing women eating alone and not sharing with the rest of the family, I imagine that there are more customs where women are excluded, but I cannot do anything about it, they are customs that have been preserved until now and I imagine that they are happy that way. It is a sweet, natural film that shows that a lot can be done without so much technology and the result is fabulous. I recommend seeing and appreciating the details.

I really enjoyed this movie, it's very exotic for me because I am European. It's a film that is easily viewed with a pleasant touch of humor. I had a great time watching this movie and I highly recommend it!

This is one finest which will get back us into our childhood days and refresh our thoughts. In the midst of heroism and non veg joke movie this one is purely realistic and content based movie which recalls our memories back into times when we visited our grandparents. A simple tale turned out into beautiful family entertained movie in humorous way with regional dialect and view of nature(Sagara),regional culture and beliefs, love,care and bond between grandparents and grandson,chirping sound of birds, regional dance. In total will not only serve with chicken curry but as pure realistic film 'Koli Taal', indeed to be recalled and remembered.

Congratulations to whole team for their commendable efforts and making tremendous job in debut filmmaking.

I just finished watching this after knowing this to be a part of a trilogy and I had liked the trailer of the second film. I had to check this one out and Abhilash Shetty impressed with the realistic approach towards the making as well as the narrative style. It's a simple story of an elderly couple wanting to cook chicken for their visiting Grandson but the rooster they had caught goes missing. The grandfather suspects theft of the rooster and is determined to find it back.

In the process of narrating this simple story, Abhilash Shetty knows his strength and it is the cultural touch that gives it's identity. It is not restricted to the urban and rural culture alone but the beliefs of the villagers. The innocence of these characters is captured well. The short runtime ensures the screenplay doesn't feel dragged and the realistic performance gives an heartfelt connect towards them.

For me, fish is special while chicken is the routine food. Seeing these characters feel the opposite was something fresh.
