The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Yogi is a 2007 Indian Telugu-language action drama film directed by V. V. Vinayak, starring Prabhas, Nayanthara and Sharada. This film is a remake of the 2005 Kannada film Jogi by Prem. It also features Ali, Subbaraju, Pradeep Rawat and Kota Srinivasa Rao in the supporting roles. Ramana Gogula composed the music for V. V. Vinayak's Lakshmi, also composed music for this film. The film was released on 12 January 2007. The film was later dubbed in Malayalam under the same title, in Hindi as Maa Kasam Badla Loonga and in Tamil as Murattu Thambi. It opened up to mixed to negative reviews, comparing unfavorably with the original, although with praise towards the cast’s performances, but criticism for its dull screenplay and sad ending, thus underperforming at the box office, despite a good opening, grossing over only ₹25 crore.
