The plot centers around Dharma (Rakshit Shetty), a loner with antisocial tendencies who finds his life improving when a vivacious dog enters it.
"If you want someone to love you forever, adopt a dog, feed it, and keep it around" as the adage goes. Kiranraj K's film, written and directed by him, is a poignant story about the human-dog relationship.
The film depicts the narrative of a man who is stuck in a rut with his unpleasant and lonely living and spends each day in the comfort of his loneliness by following a routine life from home-factory-home, fighting, eating Idlis, smoking, and drinking beer over the course of 166 minutes. His life is flipped upside down when he encounters a stray female dog (later named Charlie) with a contrasting personality as she is unruly and lively and forever changes his outlook on life. Their passion and friendship for one another is endearing, as is their journey from loner to everything to one another. A handful of situations involving both of them, though, look to be overstretched and frequently come across as repetitive.
This drama has a compelling and timely message about pet adoption, which has the potential to save the lives of these abandoned animals who deserve to be rescued. By referring to the protagonist's life and his anxiety concerns as a result of the tragedy of losing his family members in an accident, the film also emphasizes the necessity of interaction with animals, which can help with sadness and anxiety, especially in stressful situations.
'777 Charlie' also impresses in terms of performances, led by Rakshit Shetty (also a co-producer). His attachment with the female canine includes those 'oh-so-cute' moments, especially in comedy scenes. The Labrador is amazing, and her eyes have the power to melt your heart. Animal Welfare Officer Sangeetha Sringeri aids to the plot's development.
The film's photography, sound, and production design are only a few of its indisputable pluses. The first half is fast-paced and full of LOL (laugh-out-loud) moments, but the second half settles down and turns into an emotional story. Perhaps the story could have been condensed to increase the impact of the encounter. Interestingly, numerous Charlie Chaplin films, particularly 'A Dog's Life,' are playing in the background, which inspired the dog's name.
Fans of Rakshit Shetty and films that express important values, such as pet adoption, will like '777 Charlie.' The film has a lot of heart and soul, with moments that will leave you with teary eyes by the conclusion.
