    Nostalgia

    It took me to my childhood. Festival hit . It made me to remember my grandpa.. Small concent but well narrated. Awesome experience watching it. Especially sound and screenplay worked out well.

    This movie will make audience to travel to their village again. We should support these type movies. Expecting this movie on OTT soon.

    I had taken my whole family members to watch during theatrical release.

    It would be great if this movie is released on television platform so tha whole family people sit and watch together.

    Prabhakar kundar who has played the role of grandpa is very impressive.

    Even grany has done best....

    "Cherished Memories"

    This movie is a nostalgic trip back to childhood vacations, evoking the heartwarming memories of savouring my grandparents' cherished recipes. It beautifully captures the essence of not just a country chicken curry but any special dish handed down from our loved ones. The filmmaker masterfully portrays these emotions, creating a natural and immersive experience that doesn't feel like watching a movie; it feels like reliving precious moments from the past. It's a heartfelt journey worth experiencing firsthand. "Cherished Memories ". Prepare to be transported back in time through the magic of flavours and heartfelt storytelling.

    Charming and Sweet, A Beautiful Film

    This film reminded me of spending the night with my grandparents when I was young. My grandmother always cooked my favorite foods and took such delight in watching me enjoy her efforts. My grandfather could be a bit obsessive and cranky, so it all rang true.

    The charm of this film takes me back to "The Gods Must Be Crazy" with its look at what appears to be a simple village life and a love for family.

    A wonderful directorial feature debut for Abhilash Shetty who also wrote, edited and starred in the film.

    The world of cinema can look forward to more from this young talent.

    Highly recommend this wonderful slice of life comedy that truly delivers much more than its simple premise.

    Family love and absolute nature.

    It seems to me a film that is based on the love of grandparents towards grandchildren, which can be represented in cooking a delicious dish, as well as welcoming the family. I really love the sound of nature, the chirping of different types of birds that live in the place. It transports me to a true Paradise. I am struck by the faith that they profess to the Gods, the customs and the culture that they show through the scene in the Theater. I am a Latin woman and I am not used to seeing women eating alone and not sharing with the rest of the family, I imagine that there are more customs where women are excluded, but I cannot do anything about it, they are customs that have been preserved until now and I imagine that they are happy that way. It is a sweet, natural film that shows that a lot can be done without so much technology and the result is fabulous. I recommend seeing and appreciating the details.

It took in a small village which less cast and movie came out with great acting by Prabhakar kundar (grandfather) as Mahabala shetty sir and Radha Ramachandra mam as Vanaja and direction from Abhilash shetty and the Cinematography team did a great work in making this beautiful movie with simple story,
