Rakshit Shetty is a gem of Sandalwood. After delivering critically acclaimed films like Ulidavaru Kandanthe, Godhi Banna Sadharana Mykattu, Kirik Party, and Avane Srimannarayana, Rakshit Shetty is back with another outstanding film.
777 Charlie is a treat for dog lovers and those who are not connected to pets will definitely start liking them after watching this film. The makers have successfully delivered an endearing and wonderful film. The film has stood up to all the expectations of the audience. The writing of the film is flawless, the emotional roller coaster ride gives you the perfect blend of emotions and drama.
Rakshit Shetty has again given an impressive performance and he never disappoints his fans. His bonding with Charlie is a delight to watch. The female labrador Charlie's acts and her eyes will surely melt your heart. The cameos by Danish Sait and Bobby Simha will be loved by the viewers. Raj B. Shetty, Sangeetha Sringeri, and other supporting actors were fine in their roles.
This is indeed A Tale of Dharmaraj in Kaliyug, which has been inspired by Dharmaraya's character of the Mahabharata where he reaches heaven alone and a dog follows him and he ensures the dog will go to heaven. The score and soundtrack of the film composed by Nobin Paul are refreshing. The direction, cinematography, editing, and screenplay, everything was perfect in the film.
The movies like 777 Charlie come so rarely in our Indian film industry. It is undoubtedly a worth-watching tale of human-dog relationships.
Movie Rating: Direction 4/5 Acting 4/5 Dialogues 3.5/5 Story 4.5/5 Screenplay 4/5.

Every once in a while there comes a movie which takes you on an emotional rollercoaster ride. But 777 Charlie takes you on an airplane to the highest altitude possible and drops you right into the Abyss of emotions and you keep on falling in it for close to 3 hours.
This one is soo damn brutal it'll make you weep an ocean, breaks your heart into thousand pieces and stitches it back only to smash it again.
"We think too much and feel too little" the movie took this quote of Chaplin and blended it beautifully with our mythology along with some great music and cinematography.
The whole point of 777 Charlie is to make you feel something within yourself and bring out that lost human in you to survive this toxic world.
PS: Stay through the mid-credits for some bonus content.

This movie is very good. This film shows the relationship between human being and a pet in this film Dog. A man who don't even fulfill their own need but wish to complete their dogs wish. It is a very good story and music and songs also good. This film is a complete family entertaining film. Must watch with your family.

The strength of 777 Charlie lies in its emotional core. It handles themes like trauma, redemption, and unconditional love with a sincerity that feels both genuine and universal. Visually, the film captures a range of landscapes beautifully, as the story takes the characters on a journey across India, paralleling their internal evolution.
The music and background score enhance the film's emotional beats without being overwhelming, and the pacing, though slower at times, allows you to really connect with the characters. Whether you're a dog lover or simply enjoy character-driven dramas, 777 Charlie is a rewarding and touching experience.

Dog movies are a genre in themselves. Most of these films end on a sad note, which is why many dog lovers avoid them. However, even if you're not a dog or pet lover, you'll appreciate these kinds of movies for their sheer emotional impact.
This movie tells the story of a loner who finds solace and companionship when he reluctantly becomes a dog dad. How they bond and develop their relationship is what the movie is all about.
While it's not a unique story, it has the power to move you to tears. The companionship shown between the lead and the dog is beautifully portrayed. The well-written screenplay draws you into the story, making you root for what unfolds on screen. Keep some tissues handy-the touching human-pet bond will likely bring a tear or two.
Rakshit Shetty embodies his character well, showing a range of emotions, from an angry young man to someone weighed down by sadness. In my opinion, he may be even more talented than his brother Rishab Shetty. The real star of the movie, the dog, is exceptionally trained. Thanks to the director and the dog trainer, they captured spot-on shots that make the movie truly shine. The young girl, Sharvari, adds an innocent charm, while Sangeetha Sringeri is decent in her limited screen time. Bobby Simha's cameo role is a pleasant surprise, beautifully executed.
The background music deserves special mention for helping viewers sink into the story's world. Crisp editing keeps the narrative flowing smoothly and fully immersive. The songs are decent enough.
This movie is definitely worth your time. With such good reviews, it's clear why. Don't worry about the climax-the journey of this special bond is what makes it amazing.

Kannada cinema might be known across India due to the Yash & Prashant Neel-led KGF franchise but in terms of pure content-driven high-concept film-making, the trio of Rakshit Shetty, Raj B Shetty, and Rishab Shetty are the true forces to be reckoned with. And now, after having already captured our imaginations with "Kirik Party (2016)" and "Avane Srimannarayana (2019)", in "777 Charlie", an adventure drama about the love between a man and his furry best friend, Rakshit Shetty has rendered another masterpiece in emotive, heartfelt filmmaking.
The movie tells us the story of Dharma (Rakshit Shetty), a compulsive loner and misanthrope who seems to be spiraling down a path of self-destruction. Into his life comes Charlie the loveable runaway labrador dog and how their initially fractious relationship turns into an endearing lifelong bond forms the rest of the story. Rakshit Shetty is absolutely terrific as the morose, deeply damaged Dharma and steals your heart in the second half, especially in the emotionally charged scenes with his subtle performance.
It is hard to imagine anybody not falling for the cuteness of Charlie the dog at first sight. The loveable white labrador is the heart and soul of the film and the trainers deserve all the praise in the world for how they make sure she immaculately performed in line with the narrative. Nobin Paul's music is uplifting and emotional in equal measure, supercharging an already gut-wrenching story. How man's best friend can take over one's whole world to fill the emptiness in our hearts is portrayed with conviction and a lot of soul by the makers.
Director Kiranraj K and writers Raj B Shetty and Abhijit Mahesh are careful to avoid all the run-of-the-mill tropes usually associated with movies about pet love, going down radically different routes whenever you feel like the movie is becoming predictable. It is inexplicable how actor-writer-director Raj B Shetty is able to shift gears from the gory and violent "Garuda Gamana Vrishabha Vahana (2021)" to writing this soulful adventure drama and also play a quirky, delightfully comic character in the same.
After the soul-stirring "Thangam" short in "Paava Kadhaigal" (2020) and the Oscar-winning "CODA (2021)", "777 Charlie" is the only movie that had me reaching for the tissues in recent memory, such is the beautiful relationship between Dharma and Charlie. This is one movie to be experienced and not analyzed so I will stop myself here. Go watch it in theatres and I promise there won't be a dry eye in the hall. Highly, highly recommended!

A wholesome emotional drama to watch . After witnessing some high budget action thriller Pan India movies , Sandalwood delevired a non action low budget Pan India movie . Story was pretty simple though , but the way movie emotionally connected with audience was awesome . Characterisation for both protagonist and Charlie ( Dog ) was well written . First half mostly filled with fun and entertainment , Charlie's mischievous was admirable . Second half was movie travels in adventurous and emotional way . Relationship between Dharma and Charlie was very well portrayed . Nobin Paul's music was backbone for this tearjerker emotional drama . Kiranraj's direction was good . Drawbacks , 2hr 45mins runtime was too long for this story and especially second half was bit slow . Overall a well made emotional drama to watch with your family . Not only pet lovers , even other audience gonna love it .

Oh my god kanda cinema is going into another level of film making after KGF there has been a revolution in sandalwood apart from the older dubbed versions , this time aroung a much better state , i would rate kollywood, sandalwood and then mollywood in the order and quality of film making without making cringe and masala movies. Coming to the movie oh boy the movie is just a master piece whoever acted in this film wud have been a sure hit, an osm piece of work, i wonder how did the dog acted that much intensity shown very good and osm performances, a simple story with the intense and different screenplay not bored a bit only the last part i though which was dragged and was too sad , the lead did an amazing job, kudos to the director for a wonderful journey, i was in tears literally in one or two scenes. Just showcased how cheap we r and these creatures and far better than humans to be honest an osm animal movie with soulful speaking. Please do watch it available in voot.

777 Charlie is a heartwarming story of a man and his dog. Dont miss this incredible journey of unconditional love. Actor Rakshit Shetty and the labrador steal your heart away with their amazing performances. Also watch out for some lovely music and terrific cinematography. At the end I would say do watch it for the love of Charlie Chaplin and dogs.
