Impersonation

Pratiroopa is a portrait of look-alike artist named Jaishri Raju who has been impersonating Dr.Vishnuvardhan for more than two decades for a living. The film follows his journey as an impersonator and how he manages to fill the massive void left behind by the star, performing and recreating his iconic moments and songs, and in-turn entertaining fans. The film also reflects upon the larger subcultures of rural orchestra and company theatre in Karnataka.
