Window Seat

(No Spoilers)

Sheethal Shetty picks up a scene from Agatha Christie's "4.50 from Paddington" and dilutes it to boredom with a 'falling down the slopes' direction.

I am giving this film 1/10 to counter balance the fake, bogus 10/10 ratings by people who haven't even watched the film. My rating would have been at least 3/10 had it not been the paid or blind 10/10 ratings. Every person who gave 10/10 either says they are looking forward for the film or they say the teaser looks good which means they haven't even watched the film. Some have not even watched the teaser. They are praising the songs and the songs are bad! I have reported such ratings and accounts. I watched the film on Zee5. It's a 2 hours film.

I remember Sheethal Shetty from Ulidavaru Kandanthe. She was horrible in that film. She couldn't act one bit. But now she dons the writer & director's hat for this film. And must I say she can't write or direct too.

About the film's story: A guy goes on a train and sees a girl while the train is moving as slow as one would be walking so that the guy can see the girl, her face, her house and much more about her life. Half an hour into the film and we already witness 4 unnecessary songs (that don't help the story move forward). We have no details of the 3 characters that we come across - Bhandary, Sanjana & Iyengar's characters. We have no idea from and to where Bhandary is going. We have no clue what he does for a living (except play guitar and sing at his 'friend's' restaurant where am sure he doesn't get paid because that restaurant is a scam. You will now why after you watch Iyengar's behavior when a customer gives a request on the spiciness of a dish) nor we know about his family or any background. There is unnecessary fight scene, very immature teenage mentality characters in the first half an hour of the film itself. If it weren't for writing at least one review from someone who has actually bore the pain to watch the film, I would have stopped watching this after 25 minutes of nonsense scenes. The essence or the crux of the story is already seen in Rangitaranga - Bhandary plays the same character here too. In short the story is illogical in a lot of places. Shows the dumbness of the writing department headed by Sheethal.

I applaud Sheethal for such illogical writing & to those illiterates who gave 10/10 because they were paid to do this? Or they were blind and deaf.

The film's casting is definitely on the basis of Sheethal knowing the actors and the extras were probably for free. The police characters were so bad that made me wonder if they were acting like this was a TV serial. They have all done a horrible job in the acting department. The over the top acting in every scene is disgusting. The blame also goes to the director who cant handle a serious scene with finesse.

Arjun Janya might have given music to this film but there is not one song that stands out. Yograj's lyrics doesn't help with such music and storyline.

Hi everyone, This movie is something that I am very much waiting for!! The Songs are superb, Nirup Looks Amazing , cant wait for it to release! I want to watch him on big Screen! Also, I think the trailer is not released and waiting for it. Sad to see this pending from a long time due to covid.

The movie is amazing and gives u goosebumps every stage in the movie. The BGM is outstanding and the direction by Sheetal shetty is another level. Don't miss must watch movie.

I just wonder how it got 10/10 rating from some people & 3.5 rating from Times of India! She (Director shethal shetty) wasted the efforts of Nirup Bhandari, Shwetha & Sanjana & P Ravishankar by poor direction, lekha Naidu tried her best as a cop & suraj as side kick & constable are just wasted, I still think whether the Cinematography & editing really bad or the director made them to take bad shots & do worst editing! The only grace is songs(yogaraj lyrics & Vijay prakash singing) but their placement is so annoying, haven't seen the girl on the train but kannada industry gaining historical momentum nowadays, shethal please learn how to direct a movie & how to take emotions from inexperienced actors..

It could have been a good suspense thriller movie, but low bgm, poor screenplay editing & mediocre direction made it an utter boring movie. If the same movie was directed by Anup Bhandari, Rishabh, Raj or Rakshith Shetty impact would have been different. I think this script is made by anyone among those directors & Sheethal Shetty tried to direct but she lost in portraying the screenplay effectively. Movie lags alot, some characters like comedian Sooraj doesnt make any sense to the character he actually irritate by his overacting. Some scenes doesnt connect to eachother, thats why it lags & suspense thriller shouldn't lag... coz of that viewer will lose the interest. They tried to make a next Rangitharanga and failed miserably Nirup Bhandari acting was OK but other characters like Ravishankar didnt had any relevance & his screen presence was very limited... they could have used him throughout the movie as a psychologist. If this story is really written by Sheethal Shetty then she can be a good writer... direction is not her cup of tea.
