Cinema Bandi

Cinemabandi is a massive tribute showered to the innocence of rural India. Thanks to to team Praveen Kandregula, of all things wonderful and warm. I couldn't stop smiling the entire time while I was watching the movie, the nativity is something which I relate to and it really lit a wonderful spark in me. Cinemabandi is not only an out and out comedy, it gives a some insights on plaguing issues like scarcity of water, poverty, bias and electricity in rural areas, the the movie is filled with such nuances. I honestly felt so privileged watching this.

It is totally understandable that the movie made on a shoestring budget not to have frontline actors and the best technical crew that money can buy, but the pure gold 24 carat Screenplay & humour laced dialogues makes up big time and covers up all the amateurish set up that normally plagues the small budgeted films. In other words Cinemabandi's screenplay does some serious power lifting to overcome what it lags. Non regular actors do put up a brave show that somehow convincingly fits the final bill.

Overall, Despite all its shortcomings, Cinemabandi delivers a show that is nothing short of Magic on screen. Full credit to director Praveen Kandregula for his presentation against some overwhelming odds. A must watch movie for the entire family that has a very few parallels to it in the recent times. Forget the amateurish filmmaking and enjoy the story. 8 stars out of 10 for this highly recommended soul touching film that one will remember for a long time.
