Sarkari. Hi. Pra. Shale Kasaragodu, Koduge: Ramanna Rai

Finally watched the movie , Sarkari Hiriya Prathamika Shale Kasaragod

The school and its surroundings, the friends and growing up in a clutter free happy time thats shown in the movie is close to heart to every middle class Kannadiga in his/her thirties now.

I grew up in Bangalore all my childhood and I have time and again dreamt of living in a smaller city. I was friends with two sisters who had moved from Mysore and joined the high school where I studied, who were in awe with everything that Bangalore offered to them. This is the sweet spot that the movie will take you back to.. You may not be able to define it, but you will live it with full energy; laugh and cry through the length of it.

A liberal amount of space and time in the movie is taken up to show the cultural celebrations and art forms of South Canara and Kerala. No complains. It was refreshing.

We have all asked our friends or our school mates or our colleagues , or our bosses , or our juniors someday while sipping tea in some road side tea stall , "what language do you use to talk to yourself?" "What language do you dream in?" and left the topic with some self criticism or some odd joke. Sarkari Hiriya Pratamika Shale, Kasargodu is a movie that Rishab Shetty made , probably when those questions occurred to him :)

In a time where masala movies dominate the film industry, Rishab shetty delivers a movie that is full of genuine humour, social issues and linguistic discrimination.

This movie makes you laugh and smile till the end. The highlight of the movie are the kids who were like part of the story instead of acting like they were in a one. The comic timing of everyone in the movie was mind-blowing. This movie takes you back to the good old school days, particularly a scene where the class monitor writes the name of the students who misbehaves when teacher is not in the classroom was nostalgic. This movie remains faithful to the subject till the end.

Anant nag proves once again that he is an excellent actor. His monologue in the climax of the movie was thought provoking. My personal favourite character of the movie was "mammootty".

This is the funniest movie I have watched in a long time.

Best movie i ever watched. Movie with best theme and total entertainment. No where we will be bored. Beautiful scenary and songs. Loved it.

The whole movie is about the importance of language used to teach kids. The movie is rich with kannada epic comedy dialogues amazingly delivered by young actors. It fills your heart with all the emotions of love, sadness, humour and anger. 100% family entertainer! Wont regret it for sure if you choose to spend your weekend evening with this movie.

Small details also presented very beautifully. One of the best directions by Rishab Shetty.
