Breaking the norms, the transition of goes from patriarchy to matriarchy as the years pass on. Beautifully made, direction, screenplay and scripts are memorable. Realistic, hilarious and heart touching - a perfect movie to be watched by all including kannadigas. Entertainment is guaranteed along with social message , never feels like movie is casted by debut actors . It's a never miss movie, don't wait till the movie streams online rather take your fam and hit the theatres. Amazing direction, great acting and funny . The recreation of 1900s Bangalore is wonderful. A good drama for the weekend.
One of the best movies seen in recent times, almost everyone has acted exceptionally. Sindhu has amazing talent and is someone to watch out for in Kannada Industry.
I was able to relate to quite a few things from my childhood as well. Very simplistic depiction of old Bangalore lifestyle and the narrative is gripping throughout the movie. I would have loved it if we had seen a little more of Suma character transition at the end.
My only regret was not able to watch in theater when it was released. I would support these amazing movies anyday over the mass masala movies.
Watch with your family, especially someone who can relate to the old lifestyle.

WARNING: Beware - The movie has no fighting, Romance, sex, Villain, nudity. It is a pure family entertainer. You can sit with your granny, daughter and watch it, laugh and enjoy the movie. It is a feel good movie.
It is coming of age of the siblings of a middle class, traditional joint family of the 1960s Bangalore. How they manage to face adverse situations and find a way out. The script avoids all possible melodramas and takes forward the story in a light hearted manner. The dialogues are very refreshing, two songs are very popular and picturised very well. Sindhu Sreenivasamurthy in her first attempt as Director/Writer/Actor has done a marvelous job. Ably supported by all the new actors like Anirudh, and seasoned Ashok and Sudha Belavadi. The cinematography by Abhimanyu is excellent, so also Music by Bindu Malini. Trilok as lyricist and dialogue writer has won the hearts.
After a long time Kannada Film Industry has got a good clean family film. PRK productions and Ashwini Puneet also deserves congratulations for believing in new comers. It has paid rich dividend.
Overall the movie is too good and deserves support from the audience. The director, as for as I know, is the youngest Actor/Writer/Director in the Indian cinema.

Awesome story and beautiful Retro setup. From first minute to the last each scene is beautifully made. From a single man earner to all the ladies of the house contributing to the family. One of the best movies I have seen this year.
Would surely recommend all of you to watch it with your family. Each actor has given their best, the household names Suma Umma Jaggu - uff Yum Maaa Do concentrate on the lyrics of each of the songs ha ha too good. Billi jhuralla (White cockroach). Next I am going to check out each of the makers names especially director lyrics writer. Best output from each of them.
Highly recommended and proud of Kannada Cinema.

Although known for its accurate portrayal of old age Bengaluru, there is more to it. It is a narrative of decades of story in a small runtime leaving you wanting more substance for each plot of each decade. Often this is a negative aspect of many movies but once you leave the theater with this sense. You realize that is one of the best attributes of the movie.
Predominantly consisting of newcomers, all the actors provide worth for each role they portray. Timely background score matching the decades and amazing music and songs overall keep you happy. The storytelling of Kannan Gill and Sindhu is amazing and so is the direction.
All in all it's a must-watch movie and you can basket it under the comedy/feel-good genre. You will thoroughly enjoy particularly if you are from Bengaluru and make sure to watch it with generations of family to get all the additional stories for each prop and situation.
