I caught a private screening of this film and ....Superb! Loved Loved Loved it.. I would have rated it 10 but there's always room for improvement. Isn't there?
The casting, acting, treatment, screenplay, story telling, dialogues, BGM, everything was captivating and engrossed me. In end credits I realized that the director wrote all dialogues, so kudos to him for tastefully blending emotion with aesthetics. Adbhutahaa! (Means Beyond Wonderful!)
This review follows the screenplay and my instant emotions as I see the characters unravel and the story unfolds was a pleasant roller coaster.
I loved the actor who played Charles.. camera loves him. He has tremendous screen presence..
Excellent opening shot which basically tells the story before it even unfolds.. Joshua tree kinda feeling where folks go to discover themselves and then Sri Chakram (pls google it) , divine power logo appears among the visions..
Very natural progression to the character intros, extremely natural flow of dialogues and chemistry between the first two actors introduced. The big burly biker, Charles, is a kitten at heart, at peace with himself, and the asian/latino looking god daughter kinda relationship fortifies his outlook as a human/global citizen. All through the narrative.. crisp dialogues.
His dialogue with Freya is true meaning of faith and human respect for one's beliefs, opinions and it also shows the viewer the kind of relationship they both have.. Freya is more family and confidante to him than his own family.
What a heartfelt n honest conversation between father n daughter in the bedroom.. The writing was pretty deep rooted in psychology, open beliefs, broad mindedness, equating peace, grace, understanding with the feminine form. This scene again shows that a daughter is a daughter for life.. son is a son till he gets a wife.
Freeing oneself of their inhibitions, responsibilities and burdens is the true meaning of Nirvana and how u drew a parallel to bikers and freedom is commendable.. U must be a rider or did tremendous research on this entire story and how it unfolded.
Its a must watch imho and a thoroughly enjoyable one at that. Kudos to the entire cast/crew and take a bow Trivikram!
