I wonder if this movie is based on a real life story……….Think…….. if the story and the situation relates to someone in malayalam film industry………

Rakesh,

Most of the films from Kerala
are seen by the Malayali audience only.
Hence, profits for a film can only be
made through this audience. So, certain
compromises are made by Renjith to make
the film a financial success.

Well, its amazing to see how things works
in Hollywood. I mean films like the
Coens’s “No Country for Old Men” made $160 million.
And PT Anderson’s “There will be Blood” made $76 million.

I guess what British filmmaker Paul Greengrass said is right.
Hollywood is the place with the best system where
commercial films can come out during the summer and then art-house films can be released during the fall/winter by the movie studious
with the $$$ from summer.

Going by Rakesh’s logic, all one would need to can a film is a camera. The story, script and dialogues can as well be non-existent, since cinema is decidedly a ‘visual medium’.

Akasha Gopuramm should be the best movie in recent times, when judged by Rakesh’s yardsticks.
