Ulidavaru Kandante (Kannada: ಉಳಿದವರು ಕಂಡಂತೆ; English: As Seen by the Rest) is a 2014 Indian Kannada neo-noir crime-drama film written and directed by debutant Rakshit Shetty. Shetty appears in the lead role, along with Kishore, Tara, Achyuth Kumar, Rishab Shetty, and Yagna Shetty playing supporting roles. The film involves an anthology of five stories connected to an incident of a person's murder, with the each character narrating it in their own perspective.
The film was geared up to be sent to the Cannes Film Festival, and released on 28 March 2014, to generally positive reviews from film critics who acclaimed the direction, performances of Rakshit Shetty and Sheetal Shetty, and cinematography. The film was the first in Kannada to be shot entirely in sync sound technology. The film is being remade in Tamil and Malayalam simultaneously starring Nivin Pauly as Richie.
Malpe is a small fishing town on the Arabian Coast, located 6 km to the west of the temple city, Udupi. Malpe's beaches are washed clean everyday by the sea. The waves ensure that nothing gets left behind on the sands. But the waves cannot reach everything....
It is the time of the year when Udupi and its surroundings are decked up to celebrate Sri Krishna Janmashtami. Men and children walk the streets dressed up as characters from mythology. Teams painted as tigers are seen dancing to drum beats all around the town. But violence seems to be brewing in Malpe this Krishna Janmashtami.
In an interview during the production of Ulidavaru Kandante, Rakshit Shetty said, "For UK, I want to create an experience that would last for generations to come. I will be more than happy if my movie keeps running in people’s hearts."
