I had no idea about this feature. I have recently found it on Amazon Prime Video and because my brother loves Kannada, I watched it. As far as I came to know by searching on the web, it is a part of aa trilogy series by an RJ turned actor MG Srinivas aka Srini and it ran for 50 days after its release on January 2019. So, how is the film? Let's find out.
Birbal: Finding Vajramuni is a 2019 Kannada murder mystery thriller directed by MG Srinivas starring himself, Rukmini Vasanth and Abraham Marrett. The story revolves around a murder at night which gets re-opened after 8 years. Mahesh Das, the lawyer for this case tries to crack this case and bring justice. You know what happens.
But, what you do not know is how it happens? It is a very well made thriller and made in such a way that you will enjoy it. This trilogy of the film do not connect with each other other than the leading man. It takes a case each film and solves it in a fun way. All questions posed are answered and all thriller lovers are satisfied. I saw these types of thriller before with 16 Every detail counts. But, it has its own good differences. They should have removed 10 minutes from the film which deviate from the plot and show this relation between the hero and heroine. This relation is entirely forgotten at the end where all the mystery is revealed. Other than that, I have no complains about the film. The burkha scene though is very good. There is nothing much to talk, it is a fun little thriller film that entertains.
The acting too is the same. Very decent and fits the tone very well. Other than the lead pair, many of the other actors are not credited on IMDb and this film does not have an Wikipedia page. So, I do not know who played what roles. MG Srinivas as Mahesh Das is excellent. As he is the director of the feature, he knows it all and executes it perfectly. The heroine gets a role to act but it has limited scope. She performs well where scope was given to her. The guy who played the hero's friend did a very good job and maintained some charm balancing it with the dumb nature of the character. Other actors who played the roles of the police, the suspects and some other important characters did well when required.
The technical departments showed the ambition of the film. For a fun thriller, the output is top class. The cinematography had some tricks up on his sleeves. He uses modern day shots like the rotating camera, stop motion like shots and some classical wide angle shots to great effect where they elevate the look and feel of the film. Also, the 4th dimension scene was the best scene the cinematographer has done. The editing is very good but I think maybe they should have trim down some smaller parts of the film. The BGM of the film is great though. Especially in the burkha scene, I was humming the score all throughout. An important aspect of any thriller covered. All the other departments work well.
Overall, I don't know why this film get recommendations from cinephiles or critics because I think this film is one of those thrillers which will entertain you throughout although this screenplay pattern is known to us. I know now why this film ran for 50 days at theatres. A must watch for thriller lovers, Kannada movie lovers.
