"My dear Korak , I finally had the opportunity to attend the screening of your movie, "My Karma", at the Brenden Theater in Las Vegas at the NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL INDEPENDENT FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL here. I found it enlightening.
Allow me to explain myself. Many different emotions gathered within me while watching the film. I felt ashamed of myself for not contributing more love, time and patience to my own children. And, upon completion of the film, could not run fast enough to see them.
The other mini films were too abstract for me to understand and they left me disturbed in a negative unsettled and frantic way. I was very touched also, when reading the pamphlet which was given out during the film. Your life story and the way you express your thoughts are "Angelic". Often, I find myself wanting to offer unconditional love to people I care for but find it scary?! Knowing, at the same time that there is nothing bad with offering good. Life, I think has made me a little hard. I will search for tenderness and patience. Thank you for allowing me to attend your wonderful and touching creation. Good luck in your future career endeavors and I send your way positive and enriching feelings.
--Nora R, Las Vegas, Nevada
"I truly enjoyed My "Karma". What a powerful message...too bad about American films sharing that powerful message... I mean that I wish that there were more American films made with the message that you had... It seems that most of the American films were obsessed with sex and violence ...no substance.... I wish you the best... . "
--Parris Lane, A Talent Agency from Hollywood
"Your movie touches the soul. May your work continue to help other realize that we are all one and that we must continue to serve each other. God Bless You!"
--Frank Rosin, At the Branden Theater
"Very good film. Insightful and creative. Thank you so much for the film. So much to be said in so short a film - and well said. Thank you!"
--Anne Lockett, At the World Premiere Screening
"Beautiful & Powerful. I wish more people could see it. Thank you for the opportunity to witness THIS film."
--Carie Laughead, At the Registration Desk of 'My Karma' at the Festival
"Dear Korak, Thank you for inviting me to see "My Karma". It's a very important film. To show compassion truly inspires. And you did it well. Forever Peace and Light."
--Lara, From the first Public Screening
"Very good concept - true to life. I am excited to see the movie in its entirety. There is appeal to all ages, races & nationalities ."
--Author unknown, At the International Film Festival at Las Vegas
"The questions that were asked by the main actor were very good. Overall, the film had a good feeling. The songs were really powerful"
--An older lady in the audience .
"Your film was a reality check of what life is like on 2 completely different perspectives. I did not watch the movie through the lens of a movie critic, but I would say that the movie reminded me of the many feelings I have felt growing up in a western world. The words going through the main characters mind as he was walking the streets reminded me of the very thoughts that streamed through my mind when I visited India ...no one answered my questions as they thought I was just being a 'brat'. I believe your movie will have a big appeal internationally. My sense is we all deal with issues of 'privilege' at sometime in our life
if not, this movie will help to remind people that we are all human. I look forward to seeing the extended version of the movie in the future; I will encourage my colleagues, friends, and family to attend any screening or showing of the movie. Good luck in all your endeavors, and thank you for taking the time to make the movie."
--Rimi Marawah , by email after witnessing the International premiere show.
