Hadinelentu

Wonderful subject carried very nicely. Not once felt something was irrelevant. A must watch for teenagers , youths to be careful from being trapped by someone's action........

Actors did justice to their roles. Camera work is decent. Purely original No artificial flavors..

Story revolves around many of the circumstances that we see around us like gender discrimination, upper/lower caste, management orders , easy to share but hard to digest social media influences and many more........

Overall good movie with natural acting, light music, intelligent editing, awesome grip in screenplay and direction.

Kudos to Seventeeners team.

The movie effectively portrays women in powerful societal roles, gradually revealing the extent of their influence. Something that we miss in most of our cinema.

Loved how it tackles caste and social dynamics head-on, offering a nuanced perspective. The characters are depicted with realistic complexity, avoiding clear-cut distinctions between good and bad.

Additionally, the film is likely to pass the Bechdel test. That was fantastic

Thank you Prithvi Konanur!

Finally got to watch it today and that too because the film is now uploaded on youtube because well OTT players and their hypocrisy. I liked the film and definitely regret missing out on watching this early this year when I did get the chance. Prithvi Konanur's Hadinelentu deals with a sensitive issue involving two seventeeners and how the adults handle the issue which would impact the kids future directly. The realistic approach, the sensitive handling of the subject and the natural performances, had me impressed. Ofcourse the known faces amongst the starcast was always reassuring and these big names carried the film through.

Kudos to the director and team for the making, staging of the scenes by restricting much of it inside a room and lesser close up shots until necessary. The turns the case takes post interval was top notch. The mystery behind that board president added much more to the drama than bringing that character on screen. Ofcourse it's all about perspectives and the narrative builds on that by revealing each individual's take on the girl. Praises for that one courtroom scene as well and for not deviating from the harsh reality. It's a battle Deepa's character has to fight eventually and shedding light on the events that led her to it was deftly handled. Strongly recommended.

This movie is a refreshing change from the usual predictable stories. It takes a situation that might seem normal to today's generation-a private video between two teenagers going viral-and turns it into a deep and emotional story about the consequences of this event. The movie carefully explores how different people react to this situation, especially the members of a college committee who must decide on a fair punishment for the students involved.

Sheryl, the main character, is a talented student-athlete who comes from a poor background. She finds herself facing harsh consequences after the video spreads. The film shows her range of emotions, from being a determined athlete to a vulnerable young woman dealing with an unfair situation. Sheryl's story highlights how difficult it is for someone like her to break free from the challenges of her background while dealing with the added pressure of public judgment.

Another key character is Rekha Kudligi, the vice principal. She is an ambitious woman who sees this incident as a chance to advance her career, but as she learns more about the hidden motives of others, her character becomes much more complex. Rekha's journey adds a layer of realism to the story, showing how personal ambition and moral dilemmas can conflict.

The movie stands out because it not only tells a gripping story but also makes the audience think about serious social issues like gender inequality, the challenges of youth, and the role of power in shaping justice. The subtle actions and inactions of the college committee reveal how these issues play out in real life, making the film relatable and thought-provoking.

Overall, this movie is a must-watch for anyone who cares about fairness and justice in today's world. It's a story that stays with you, making you think about how society handles the mistakes of young people and who really pays the price for those mistakes.

I was quite skeptical going in and even when the movie started. But I was pleasantly surprised at how gripping the movie was and the relevance of the movie in today's world. The multi dimensional twists were fantastic. The theme is bold and the twists are bolder.

The simple setup and acting by every actor is a highlight. I'm so impressed with the movie that I am telling all my network of people about it and pushing them to go watch it asap although it's uncertain of the delivery channel.

Finally the Kannada movies have arrived for a different persona. I'm in fact proud of the movie as if I made it!!!

Please go ahead and watch this movie and you will not be disappointed for sure.
