Round 3 of #ProjectHailMary at #IMAX with Laser XT, Koramangala, Bengaluru!

Finally watched it in the format this movie was truly made for. Now I completely get why everyone raves about the IMAX experience (even if it’s not 1.43:1 👀).

That expanded aspect ratio and taller FOV make a huge difference - the scale feels absolutely gargantuan. For a space film like this, IMAX just elevates everything. Compared to ScreenX and Dolby Cinema, this is where the immersion really peaks (In the way director intended)

The laser projection delivered sharp visuals with solid contrast, and the IMAX 12-channel audio packed a strong punch; though I’d still give Dolby Atmos (at Dolby Cinema) a slight edge in overall sound precision and bass depth.

It also hit me with nostalgia - thinking about all the space movies I’ve experienced in IMAX over the years. Yet another spectacular one added to that list.

This is the way. 🚀

Final ranking (Bengaluru):
• For the true intended experience (aspect ratio matters): IMAX Koramangala (Laser)
• For best HDR visuals + top-tier sound: Dolby Cinema (AMB)
• For a unique immersive take: ScreenX

Pick your preference - you really can’t go wrong.

"Happiness is a choice you make and a skill you develop. The mind is just as malleable as the body. We spend so much time and effort trying to change the external world, other people, and our own bodies, all the while accepting ourselves the way we were programmed in our youths. We accept the voice that talks to us in our head all the time as the source of all truth. But all of it is malleable, every day is new, and memory and identity are burdens from the past that prevent us from living freely in the present."

After reading this I can only picturize Sonny Corleone in Animal.... What a comparison @RGVzoomin 🫡

[Ram Gopal Varma @RGVzoomin]

I don’t know how many of u read godfather novel , because the film doesn’t do justice to Michael Corleone’s brother Sonny Corleone .. All directors since the last 50 years including me (in Sarkar ) modelled our heroes on Michael and @imvangasandeep is the first one who just threw Michael Corleone into the trash can and made Sonny Corleone the hero

Incidentally K K Menon (Vishnu) in Sarkar is modelled on Sonny

While every Indian knows about Jallianwala Bagh massacre, few of us think about the reactions of the British public to the event. The massacre itself was blacked out by the government in India and martial law was in place. When news got out, the British tabloids referred to Jallianwala Bagh massacre as the “Amritsar affair” — in an obvious use of minimising language.
How could the “affair “ change the attitudes of British public if they were denied truth? The answer lies , as often, in the efforts one man. A man whose origins are as far away from Punjab as one can imagine.

Sir Chettur Sankaran Nair was born in an aristocratic family in 1857 in Palakkad district of Kerala. His strong sense of fairness and justice, drove him to pursue law. Nair was an iconoclast and defied the dictates of Vakil association, which said no Indian would work under a British barrister. His reason : his clients had the freedom to choose their lawyer. To him justice mattered more than the color of the lawyer’s skin. He was a vociferous advocate of social reforms.

As Madras High court judge, he ruled that those who converted to Hinduism cannot be treated as outcastes. He also supported inter-religious marriages and was clearly ahead of his time. He became the youngest leader of Indian National congress. When the Montagu Chelmsford reforms were introduced in 1908, he called out the act as being partial. Even though Sir Edwin Montagu called him an “impossible man” , the British respected his moral rectitude and knighted him in 1912. In 1915 Nair became a member of the powerful Viceroy council and was given the education portfolio.
Then Jallianwala Bagh happened.

Nair resigned from the Viceroy council in protest - something unheard of , at that time. . He wrote “Gandhi and Anarchy” in which he openly accused Punjab Governor Michael O’Dwyer (the man who would be later shot by Shaheed Udham Singh). In response, O’Dwyer filed a defamation suit against Nair.

Nair faced a suit against a British man in a British court , presided over by a British judge and a British jury. All cards were stacked against him - yet he fought valiantly. The trial was the longest civil case London had seen until that time and lasted five and a half weeks. It laid threadbare the British atrocities in India and got extensive press coverage , something neither Nair nor O’Dwyer could have imagined. The British public, for the first time, understood that the call for Indian Swarajya wasn’t rebellious or seditious.

Sadly Nair lost the case 11 to 1 and had to pay a fine of 500 pounds. O’Dwyer said he would forgo that amount if Nair apologises. To which Sir Chettur Sankaran Nair said, “ I would rather pay 500 pounds than say something I don’t believe in. Besides what’s the guarantee that the next 12 shopkeepers in a British court wouldn’t side with their own? “

His fearless nature ensured that people all over the world heard about Jallianwala Bagh massacre. From New York to Paris, from Berlin to Moscow , Nair shook the image of the mighty British Empire, if only for five weeks.

Not all battles are fought for victory. Some are fought simply to tell the world that someone was there on the battlefield. The greatest tragedy such a warrior can face is being forgotten, erased from the history books of the very nation he fought for. The least we can do to correct such historic wrongs, is to tell our children about courage and conviction of our heroes.

Happy Independence Day !

Jai Hind !
