    What a Cinema

    Cinemabandi is a massive tribute showered to the innocence of rural India. 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.

    The movie is like a fresh air.

    Totally interesting right from the first short. The length of the movie helped a lot. Natural acting by all. Loved the comedy in the movie. Don't miss this flick. It will definitely bring a smile on your face throughout the film. Kudos to the entire cast and crew. Much appreciated.
