In response to the film starring Dushyanth and Ashika Ranganath, what are audiences saying about the film? The Kannada fantasy drama Gatha Vaibhava, directed by Simple Suni, began its worldwide theatrical run on November 14, 2025.

On November 14, 2025, the Kannada fantasy play Gatha Vaibhava, directed by Simple Suni, will begin its international theatrical run. The narrative, starring SS Dushyanth and Ashika Ranganath, takes place in both historical and mythological settings. 

The film, produced by Servegara Silver Screens and Suni Cinemas, follows the journey of Purathan and Adhunika, whose current meeting transports them to past lives ranging from the divine realms of Devaloka to Vasco da Gama's voyage and the coastal landscapes of pre-independence Karnataka.

Following the film's premiere, viewers on social media sites, notably X (formerly Twitter), shared their initial reactions to it. These posts, while not formal reviews, give an early indication of audience reactions. Comprehensive critical reviews and box office numbers are due in the coming days, but online buzz is already shaping early discussions about the picture.

According to the creators, Gatha Vaibhava follows Purathan and Adhunika as their current meeting takes them on a trip through previous incarnations. The story shifts between legendary worlds and historical locations, showing how vestiges of the past recur in their present lives. The film explores issues of time, memory, and continuity without providing definitive explanations, allowing viewers to form their own judgements. The production brought together a large technical team. William J David handles cinematography, while Ashik Kusugolli is in charge of editing, DI, and colour grading.

As Gatha Vaibhava continues to play in theatres, the early internet posts indicate audience participation; however, they do not yet create a clear consensus. With additional screenings beginning and a larger audience expecting to see the film in the following days, the response and conversation around it are expected to change as the film approaches its entire release cycle.
