Brief Explanation

A short satire on a day in the life of Chennai, through the 24 hour biography of a giant cardboard cutout character in a double role, through the ups and downs of cinema and politics, becoming a metaphor for the rise and fall of stars on the screen and beyond it, while highlighting the dirty party hopping track that most actor / politicians employ every day. A film that celebrates the cinema capital of india and its unique Cutout Culture with an original folk narrative based soundtrack that captured the Top of the Charts position on all Indian music channels.
