‼️I reduced rating from 5 ⭐ to 2 ⭐ after reading real story‼️
First the movie was fantastic in every direction I felt like it deserves every appreciation possible. It shows how difficult it was to be poor and how cruelty of people in power makes it worse. Screen play was really good pulls every viewers directly in the situations.
Here comes the bad side:
1) I watched in Kannada which is dubbed horribly. Even lyrics are wrong for the song. But I believe it must be correct in Tamil, dubbing team should take this blame.
2) Here comes the actual reason for me to reduce it to 2 stars from 5.
The movie retains almost all real names or keeps similar name except for the police inspector. It does not stop there, it changes his religion too. Moreover a caste has been assigned to the role. Now this is the point where movie losses all its positive side. How can a movie based on a real story can change plot to show completely different (altered) problems? How it became a fight between caste, while real story was between poor and rich, common people and people with powers. Its not acceptable if a movie tries to show lies while pretending to be based on real story.
Conclusion: If I have to rate movie in isolation I would still give 5 ⭐. But movie creates an impression about it when it is based on a real incident and in current situation showing misleading information causes desaster in consequence So this is a big mistake and gets it straight 1 ⭐. I found my final 2 ⭐ rating balancing above points.
