Directing
Ranchi, a Kannada film directed by Shashikanth Gatti, takes audiences on a riveting journey as a struggling filmmaker delves into a seemingly innocuous Railway documentary project, only to unravel a well-oiled crime syndicate. Led by Prabhu Mundkur and Divya Uruduga, the film seamlessly blends elements of suspense, crime, and documentary storytelling.
A hotel cashier turned lawyer, Bharath Hanumanth, navigates his early career in a small law firm while defending Niveditha in a high-stakes courtroom case. He faces off against his former mentor in a story exploring justice.
This is the first Indian film which is wholly based on the life of a film editor. Tonally, the film narrates a young man's (editor's) life, whose dreams are unusual, in a comical and entertaining way.. This film subtly puts across a message that success has no certain set of rules which have to be followed in life to achieve it. We don't necessarily have to excel in academics, get a good job, handsome salary etc. Success lies in happiness and in being able to do what we want in life.
