Usually, the audience watches a movie, and the scenes in a film are critiqued by reviewers. How about the director of the movie himself explaining his point of view and how he conceived a particular scene? ZEE5 and director Deva Katta have come out with the commentary keeping this in mind.  

Deva Katta explains his screenplay in a freewheeling conversation with editor Praveen KL, screenplay-writer Kiran, and creative producer Satish BKR. They talk about the visual timeline of ‘Republic’ in a detailed manner. When the film starts streaming, the audience can choose the option to watch the movie along with the director’s insightful commentary. They can, alternatively, watch the movie without the commentary.
