Ashawari

There is a scam going on that people are requested to click 'already watched' in google & earn cash rewards. People are added to a WhatsApp group & admin sends messages regarding the process. They send the link to the movie & people need to click the 'already watched' on google. Afterwards they asks for bank account for the reward. There are no rewards & they only need the 'already watched' count to be higher. That means a group of people are trying to elevate the ratings & views through false marketing campaign. I have not watched this movie & just wanted to inform the audience that the current ratings & good reviews must be false.

Ashawari" is a heartfelt journey into the intricacies of love, beautifully captured by director Theja Iddamalgoda in his debut film. Set against the enchanting backdrop of Sri Lanka, the movie delicately weaves together the romance between Hemal Ranasinghe and newcomer Ishatka Jahanvi, whose chemistry ignites the screen. Supported by a talented cast including Saranga Disasekara, Jayani Senanayake, and Bimal Jayakody, each character adds depth to the narrative, enriching the viewer's experience. The film's picturesque cinematography enhances the allure of the story, inviting audiences to immerse themselves in the passionate tale of love, longing, and sacrifice. "Ashawari" is a captivating exploration of the human heart, leaving a lasting impression on all who venture into its world.

I didn't watch this film, but I stumbled upon a bad marketing strategy by its production group. They're creating a WhatsApp group and asking members to click the "Want to watch" and "Already watched" buttons on Google to boost their popularity in an illegitimate way. The amusing part is they promise WhatsApp group members Rs. 900 if they send a screenshot after clicking those buttons. However, after sending the screenshot, they ask for the WhatsApp number via Telegram, remove the member from the WhatsApp group, and never send the Rs. 900. They using marketing company name called LMD internation Sri Lanka. It's unclear if the company itself is directly involved in this contract or if someone is using their name for this dubious marketing tactic. Either way, it reflects poorly on the company's reputation.

This movie is so bad. Additionally, they are promoting the movie by fooling people, telling them that they will be rewarded with money if they rate it highly and check the "watched" box on Google. That's how they got these ratings-only from scammed people.

Perhaps the most egregious aspect of ashawari is its blatant disregard for the audience's intelligence. Promoted through false promises and deceptive advertising, this film preys on unsuspecting viewers who deserve far better for their time and money.

In conclusion, Ashawari is an insult to the art of filmmaking and a disgrace to cinema as a whole. Avoid it at all costs, and instead, support movies that respect their audience and deliver on their promises.

I rate this movie 1 star because i cant give 0. They are scamming people by creating whatsapp groups and promise to give money by telling people to change the settings under google reviews as 'watched'. But they never give the money. I have proof of these group messages also if anyone wants. I watched this movie and I could hardly watch it even for 5 minutes. Not worth your time. It is an utter garbage movie too. On the other hand, corrupt marketing strategy. They continuously add us to these groups and ask us to do this. I do not know where they get our numbers. This is such a harassment. People should know of this scam.
