The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Bindaas (transl. Independent) is a Kannada-language action comedy film directed by D. Rajendra Babu and produced by M. Chandrashekar under Udayachandra Productions. The film stars Puneeth Rajkumar, alongside Hansika Motwani (in her Kannada debut), Nassar, Suman and Rahul Dev. The soundtrack and score was composed by Gurukiran, while the cinematography and editing were handled by H. C. Venu and T. Shashikumar respectively. Bindaas was released on 15 February 2008, received mixed-to-positive reviews, and became a box office success. The film was dubbed in Telugu as Pandugadu, in Hindi as Be Happy Bindaas and in Bhojpuri as Baazi. It was also reported to have been dubbed in Malayalam. Despite being dubbed in Bhojpuri, it was remade as Hero, making it the first Kannada film to be remade in that language. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
