India&apos;s First Film with Under Water Shots

Shankar Nag brings forward India&apos;s first film with scenes shot under water. The film was shot in parts in coastal Karnataka and in Maldives making it India&apos;s first film to have shots shot in Maldives though in the film the location is said to be coastal Karnataka only.

As usual Shankar Nag&apos;s movies or writings are heavily futuristic or timeless. In 2023 too this film has so much relevance to people&apos;s characters. This probably is the only Rajkumar film that I have watched where he plays shades of greed (not counting characters where he plays a double role).

The film though is about fisher folks in the coastal belt of Karnataka, the film&apos;s storyline is very much effective for any poor people vs rich (poor and rich in terms of wealth, strength, power, fame etc). Well made film in every department though the songs could have been avoided. But as it is a 1987 film I guess songs were required. This is also Shankar Nag&apos;s only directorial with Raj Kumar in the lead. The climax reminded me of the 2019 Malayalam film Jallikattu which also shows human greed throughout the film.
