It's no easy task to make a movie where none of the 'actors' are actors, and still end up with something entertaining. Please watch it if you haven't already!
"Thithi wont bore you as you will get engaged with characters. Its a must watch movie"
My rating- 4/5 (Dont miss this flick)
Positives- 1.) Screenplay and direction- The best part of screenplay is that it was able to mix humor in a slow paced story making it a satirical comedy. Even though the movie lags, the director was able to keep our attention to the characters and their problems. Each and every dialogues were realistic and also was able to provide natural humor to the plot. So screenplay and direction needs to be appreciated for following variety and experimental film making style.
2.) All actors performance- Each and every actors performance was excellent and looked totally real.
Negatives- 1.)Duration- Duration could have been reduced a bit because it was lagging.
Is it a must watch?
Yes, no doubt about it.
Overall- Watch this award winning movie and its worth it!! My rating- 4/5 (Dont miss this flick) For more reviews go to- Ridinbal movie reviews. Ridinbal movie reviews has all language movie reviews (English, Kannada, Malayalam,Telegu,Tamil,Hindi,Arabic,Iranian)

I viewed this movie at the current New Zealand International Film Festival...
It wasn't bracketed as a "highly recommended" watch by the catalogue editors, however to be blunt, I think they've missed a trick. The very realistic nature of this film allows it to resonate strongly with people of all ages, and the humour is very subtle, yet well received.
The audience is left with a somber feeling in their stomach, pondering a world in which wealth and greed seem to prevail over family and well-being.
You could be forgiven for thinking this film might be slightly dull after reading the synopsis, but I assure you it would be a poor assumption. A great, whole-hearted watch!

Very cute, a light mood, pleasant to accompany another culture, and so different, the nomadic shepherds, so rustic, a people so simple and happy, I really liked this perspective, the non-professional actors and extras from the region, all very captivating, Fall in love with the "Beard Man" Gaddappa, invitation to the funeral, dead watching and people just think about food, they are not wrong, right, I see them eating, all together, on the same plate and with their hands, and I feel like sharing , despite finding it unhygienic ... I didn't understand the girl's speech, "Find me and marry me" she lost her virginity to him, to create this "obligation", bond, an excellent Indian film...
A movie which showcases the generation differences, real life relations between father and son also with villagers. How faulty it is in all the ways that is possible for a society to be. It also brings in South and North Karnataka on a single page, The nomad Shepard of North Karnataka faced with nomad like character Gaddappa who is like an old banyan tree who's acts philosophy in real terms.
Top of that the characters in the movie are not professional actors, but the villagers where this movie had been done.
I feel when you count 10 Must watch movies of India, this movie holds higher rank in the list.
