Why is there such a controversy over the name of a movie? People will not even mind if a movie is worthless. Makes them reason to argue, let them argue is a good thing. What’s wrong with us? You do not argue without seeing, do you argue without seeing? This was the first reaction of SN Swamy, the screenwriter of ‘CBI 5 The Brain’, when he was exposed to criticism and trolls on social media.
With the release of ‘CBI 5 The Brain’ on Netflix, the social media discussions have gained momentum. The film’s script and direction have been criticized on a number of occasions for pointing out technical flaws in the film, as well as the word basket killing. SN Swamy also responded to a tweet by NS Madhavan criticizing the film in connection with pacemaker hacking.
Swami’s words
‘Now let me say one thing, I can politely say that NS Madhavan was a very prominent writer and IAS officer, but it was not right to criticize the film without examining anything. He says Bluetooth cannot be used on flights. Until recently, there have been many flights between Delhi and Kerala. Often on the flight and talking on the phone. Some kind of medium, that is, the conversation took place through a corridor. You can call it data, WiFi, Bluetooth, Or Call X, Wi or Z. Remind him that it’s so simple. Besides, I practically wrote the script using pacemaker.
Things are so specific, so scientific. If a person in such a high position does not even know a simple thing, what right does he have to comment like this in public? . Either he is prajudis, or he is ispaid..this position is not correct. This kind of criticism is not suitable for him. The script was written following consulting with computer and electronics experts. Mammootty is the king of all this and is very knowledgeable regarding electronics. If this is stupid, Mammootty will not agree to show his head. No technical errors will be admitted. That has been very helpful to me. I will not admit any mistakes by saying that I am cinematic. If I had inquired, I would have got the information. Let no one misunderstand tomorrow. A lot of people called and asked why Swami was so stupid, I said, you look for something. All those who asked called me later and said sorry.
Similarly, he has the authority to say that Saubin Shahir is a miscast and a misfit. He may have had that character targeted in his mind. Like it or not. Or his acting should be bad. All that is needed in that situation is for him to speak in a hushed voice. He speaks in a very frustrated manner. That’s the way it fits the character. There are a lot of people who do not want the film to be a big success, I have already thrown away the fan problem and competition.
The word basket killing is another matter. It is said that such a word was put in it to attract the people. Arguing nonsense into small things, criticism is not creative at all. The movie was first released in Farook at 8.30 am. It was nine o’clock when the bad comments came. It’s very targeted. The people who gave the news then called and apologized. Let all these discussions go that way … what else to say ..
