Excellent adaptation, even more so than the original Charlie.. Beautifully painted scene by scene, brilliantly acted by the cast, never over dramatic, simple, fantastically realistic.. Going by some of the critics reviews before i watched, i thought this may not be as captivating.. but it was wrong.. kudos to the director for the memorable film.. hope he makes many more movies.. all songs are good as well by ghibran, i would request not over-music the song lyrics in some places.. thus is not a remake at all, just a director's different take on charlie.. loved it absolutely.. shraddha srinath was brilliant as well.. some reviewers again mentioned she didnt do justice as parvathi. but i would say she did more than parvathi..
