So, the ambiguity surrounding whether ‘Agynaathavaasi’ is a freemake of the French film ‘Largo Winch’ comes to an end from the opening premiere shows of the film. The director of the original French Film watched Trivikram’s movie and tweeted about it.
‘Agynaathavaasi‘ was indeed heavily inspired by the French film except for some changes and additions in the form of cliched comic tracks that hadn’t added any value to the movie. Few of the scenes in the movie are directly taken from ‘Largo Winch’ like the climax penthouse scene.
It’s greatly puzzling to see that a director like Trivikram has to do this. French director Jerome Salle tweeted that the plot was too similar otherwise he would have loved the movie. Only that ‘Agyaathavaasi’ has comic tracks and ‘Largo Winch’ was a way too serious.
Screening at #LeBrady tonight. Great atmosphere thanks to the audience. I could‘ve loved the movie but unfortunately the plot was too familiar. #LargoWinch #Agnyaathavaasi pic.twitter.com/RwFWAyeUPz
