Chachiiiiii 🥰 We just loved him! Like the grandpa we never had. Pailo Can was a good family-friendly entertainer, we easily blended into his fantasy world
~Worth Watching~

Delicious
—It was such an original idea to craft a story about an older person with superhero powers! Chachi (Ram Kumar) owned his role; he was fun to watch, we loved his smile and benevolence
—Pailo Can stressed something very significant, ‘a prophet is never honored in his hometown.’ When you think people will be appreciating Chachi for the difference his powers made in the community, they only became apprehensive…
—The score and sound effects were very dominant and created the fantastical atmosphere it needed
—Having few dialogues in the scenario gave us time to digest the environment and the locals’ activities which felt very homey
–-Kudos to the helicam operators for such magnanimous shots that showed Chachi’s expanding universe

Bland
—So, the entire movie revolved around Chachi becoming supernaturally strong, yet, we didn’t get to see his powers in action. The exciting parts were hidden, we just saw him ‘after’ the deed was done, such a bummer… 🙁
