Upendra’s UI released in theaters on 20 December. Apart from starring in it, he also directed it, marking his return to direction after a gap of nine years.
Watch the first look teaser of the UI here:
India Today’s review of the film UI states, “The strongest aspect of UI is its use of metaphors to represent humanity and society. Though it is less complex than Upendra’s earlier directorial ventures such as A, Upendra and Uppi 2 And confusing, but this simplicity works in the film’s favor as it communicates its message effectively without overwhelming the audience.”
UI also features Ravi Shankar, Sadhu Kokila and Achyuth Kumar.
