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 quirky tale of the differing outlooks and actions of 4 generations of men from one rural family. Great to see a film where the protagonists are not all prettied up faces ; a film where there is a story and the story is revealed subtly and not thrust in your face. Superb acting. Worth watching
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.

Kannada film industry is going through a paradigm shift gradually. The filmmakers are taking the affliction on their shoulders to elevate the quality of regional Indian Cinema like Malayalam, Tamil,Telugu, Marathi or Bengali.
Having created movies Like Lucia, RangiTaranga, Ulidavaru Kandanthe etc, the storytelling and narratives are shifting towards excellence.
Ram Reddy has done a marvelous job with a satire "Thithi". The idea and setup work wonderfully.
Working with non-actors and keeping the realism intact is a tough nut to crack. All the ingredients of the movie, a rural setting, authenticity, a dysfunctional family, daily teething troubles, desires, covets and minimalism, work fantastically. The humor is weaved perfectly.
A perfect watch for people who want to watch something different.

It's very satirical. I personally do not see any specific 'comment' in the society. The social structure given is perfectly fine.
It is jus a nice, well written, play-like brilliant piece of movie.
