Darpan News Desk IANS, 30 May, 2016 12:30 PM
    Superstar Aamir Khan has praised Raam Reddy's National Award-winning Kannada language film “Thithi” and says it is a little "difficult to slot it into a genre".
     
    "Hey guys, just saw one of the most amazing films I have seen in a long time! Thithi," Aamir tweeted on Monday. 
     
    The 51-year-old shared that the film has English subtitles and is releasing in theatres on July 3.
     
    Aamir also lauded the performances by the actors in the film.
     
    "Absolutely unbelievable performance! And all non-actors in the film. And how funny is it," he wrote, and added: "It's a little difficult to slot it into a genre, but it's really funny. Don't miss it. Love. a."
     
    Produced by Pratap Reddy and Sunmin Park, “Thithi” was screened in over 12 prestigious international and national film festivals and won 13 awards.
     
    The film started its journey at the prestigious Work-in-Progress Lab (WIP) at the NFDC Film Bazaar, 2014 where it was declared the Best WIP Fiction Feature.
     
    “Thithi” is a dramatic comedy about how three generations of sons react to the death of the oldest in their clan, a man named Century Gowda: a locally renowned, highly cantankerous 101-year-old man. 
     
    Set in a small village in Karnataka, the three storylines intertwine before converging at Century Gowda’s ‘thithi’ - the final funeral ceremony, 11 days after a death.
