Kapata Nataka Paatradhaari

Krishna (Balu Nagendra) is an auto driver, who leads a playful existence. He is in love with Rukmini (Sangeetha Bhat). One day, he's interrogated by the police about three missing men. Krishna goes on to tell them a tale that has romance, comedy and even horror, all featuring his auto. What's the real story?

The casting is one of the highlights of Kapata Nataka Paatradhaari. The lead actors fit into their roles to the T in this quirky tale written by first-time director Krish.

The narrative uses limited settings and characters to tell an interesting tale that has some twists that thrill and treat viewers. While the film has shades of horror, the treatment of those scenes is not exaggerated and this is a refreshing change. The film features a couple of songs that could have been done away with. Since the narrative is well within two hours, the story seems concise and to the point. Talking about the story will take away from the movie watching experience.

Kapata Nataka Paatradhaari is well worth that weekend visit to the cinema hall if you like something 'different'.
