A Kannada-language film just flipped the script- literally. Titled Love You, this South Asian stunner is officially the world’s first fully AI-made movie. Yep, not a single human actor stepped in front of the camera. In fact, AI wrote it, directed it, acted in it, and even did the post-production. It’s giving “cinema of the future” and we are here for it!
Made in Karnataka, Love You has bagged the historic title of being the first AI-generated film to get certified by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). That means it’s not just an AI side-project or an experimental YouTube short- this one’s made it to the big leagues. The film’s creators, S. Narasimha Murthy and AI technician Nutan, managed every aspect of production without the involvement of a traditional cast or crew.
The entire film was created using artificial intelligence, and that includes character design, voices, script, editing- you name it. Think of it as The Sims meets Black Mirror with a dash of desi drama.
Is it any good though?
We’ll let you be the judge of that once it hits screens, but one thing’s for sure- this is a major moment in global cinema, especially for South Asian creatives. The fact that a Kannada film is leading this tech-powered movement? Iconic.
This isn’t just about tech- this is about representation. South Asia is no longer just following trends; it’s setting them. It’s another reminder that our stories, languages, and innovation matter on a global scale.
While the official release date is still under wraps (ugh, the suspense!), the creators are planning a global rollout soon. Until then, the buzz is building, the AI is booting up, and the rest of us are just waiting to see what a fully digital rom-com (?) from South India really looks like.
So, what’s next? AI-powered Bollywood? A Netflix series starring virtual celebs? Who knows! But Love You is proof that the future of film might just be a code away.
Stay tuned, cine-fam- this one’s got no cast, no crew, just code.
One thing’s for sure: Cinema just got a software update- and it came with South Asian swag.
