Ek
Mini
Katha
released
recently
and
was
welcomed
with
a
great
response
from
the
audiences
and
critics
alike.
It
was
most
talked
about
for
its
unique
story
idea
and
concept,
something
that
hasn't
been
explored
in
Indian
cinema
before.
The
film
revolves
around
the
dilemma
and
the
struggles
faced
by
the
protagonist,
Santosh,
whose
life
is
engulfed
by
a
psychological
problem,
which
is
often
not
discussed.
Merlapaka
Gandhi,
of
the
Venkatadri
Express
fame,
has
been
applauded
for
taking
up
an
unconventional
and
complex
topic
and
executing
it
so
well,
thereby
making
it
a
complete
family
entertainer.
The
subject
is
so
sensitive
that
it
could
easily
get
into
an
uncomfortable
space.
Instead,
Gandhi
and
the
director,
Karthik
Rapolu
presented
this
rather
original
idea
with
rib-tickling
comedy
and
quirky
dialogues,
making
it
a
hilarious
watch.
Speaking
about
the
concept,
Santosh
shares,
"This
is
really
not
to
get
on
the
trend
or
bandwagon
of
films
that
talk
about
taboos
and
breaking
stereotypes.
The
stimulus
of
this
film
came
from
Gandhi
sir
and
it
really
is
just
a
great
story."
Santosh
considers
himself
lucky
for
getting
the
opportunity
to
work
in
a
film
with
such
a
unique
storyline.
"It's
very
rare
in
our
careers
as
filmmakers
and
actors
to
get
an
opportunity
to
do
something
that
has
never
been
done
before.
It
is
a
once
in
a
lifetime
opportunity
for
us,
once
this
is
done
anybody
would
be
the
second
person
to
do
this.
Gandhi
sir
is
the
first
person
who
wrote
it,
we
had
carried
out
a
research
to
find
out
if
there
was
a
cinematical
representation
of
this
subject,
but
we
didn't
find
any.
This
is
an
original
story
in
the
true
sense
to
come
out
of
Telugu
cinema.
I
think
it
is
absolutely
impeccable
writing
from
Gandhi
sir"
adds
the
young
actor.
