Vish View

My favorite thing about Blake Crouch is that even if he is writing about high-level scientific stuff, the story always gives importance to human emotions - the reader will be able to feel what his characters are feeling - which makes it another beautiful read. Loved it.

Kaliyuga.
The world is divided into 3 sections:

The Complex - an inverted triangle-shaped sky city of the rich and powerful - is ruled by the evil Supreme Yashkin. Every natural resource of the past exists here - it is a paradise in the sky.

Kashi - the last city on Earth - is the home of the poor people. Surrounded by desert and dried-out Ganga river. God is banned in the last city by the Evil Empire. It is a place of misery and darkness...Only the strong survive here.It is a hell on earth.

Shambala - a secret city of rebels who fight against the Supreme Yashkin.They believe in the legend of Kalki - the tenth incarnation of Lord Vishnu who will destroy the evil and restore the world...They are waiting and searching for the mother - the lady who will give birth to the God himself...

Bhairava is a bounty hunter from Kashi who dreams of entering the Complex - he just needs one thing to do that - 1 million units. Along with his A.I friend BUJI is looking out for a jackpot that will fulfill his dream.

SUMATI lives in the Complex serving as a nurse in a secret Project called K. A project where girls are impregnated with a seed provided by the Evil ruler - only he knows what is the real motive of the secret Project. One day, SUMATI finds that she is pregnant. All she wants is to escape from the Complex and save her baby.

Aswathama - a lone immortal warrior from the time of Mahabharatha - one who must protect the mother of the new Avathar of Lord Vishnu.One who just got the signs that indicated the Avatar is coming...

As the path of the three crosses, it is the beginning of something that was mentioned in the legends - the birth of the Saviour.

Nag Aswin has crafted a tale that can be called a perfect sequel to Mahabharatha - a story set in a period spanning between centuries. He has mixed Indian mythology and sci-fiction in a perfect blend and delivered a masterpiece film with technical brilliance, in a first of its kind in Indian Cinema, backed by a supreme group of stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Hassan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and many more...

This is the first film in the Kalki Universe and is a MUST WATCH if you are a lover of Indian Cinema - because my friend - this is a historic achievement of a young talented director which must be witnessed on the big screen only...

Kill

Director: Nikhil Nagesh Bhat

Genre:  Action

Language: Hindi

Year:2024

The movie is inspired by a true incident on a train where a Gurkha soldier fought a group of 40 bandits and saved the day. ' KILL' was marketed as 'the most violent Indian film' - makers provided exactly what was promised, making it a perfect watch.

For a film in this genre to work well, it is necessary to connect emotionally with the audience. Here it is created by the well-written characters and events. We can feel the anger that the hero is feeling and so when he brutally kills the villains, we are also satisfied. I liked how well-written the film was - giving justice to every action and result. For example, a villain who kills a boy is later killed not by the hero, but by the boy's mother.

Laksya has arrived - a new action hero is born in a film that itself is a benchmark in the Bollywood action genre. Waiting to see his upcoming projects.

I have seen Raghav Juyal before - as a talented dancer who mesmerized the audience - as a funny anchor who makes the audience laugh - but hey this transformation I never expected from him. Fani is one of the greatest villains of all time - such a brilliant performance - just slayed it...

Nice to see Asishj back as a baddy. Tanya was also perfect with her beautiful performance...

The director and crew deserve all the appreciation for making a film like this and giving such a raw experience...

If you don't have a problem with seeing blood, go and enjoy the ride....
