Science-fiction film 'Mandala' releases in cinema halls today

Making a debut as a producer with this film, Ajay Sarpeshkar says, “The film has a U certificate. It is meant to inspire young minds to explore space, science and technology. Science fiction is not a genre that is common in the Kannada film industry. The x factor in here is the performance by the lead actor Kiran and of course the story.”

Ajay adds, “Having studied engineering, and working in tech for over a decade, we designed our own spaceship for this film without relying on online information – all this was done to ensure the film is based on scientific facts. Without being preachy, we show how technology is used to detect UFOs.”
