This was the golden era where popular videos from the channel went viral on WhatsApp and Instagram Reels. The series Pili Nalike (Tiger Dance) and Marnemi (Funeral Rituals) became cultural touchstones, amassing hundreds of thousands of views.
| Series/Video Type | Notable Examples | Theme | |------------------|------------------|-------| | “Mangaluru Joke” series | “Auto Raj”, “Pani Puri Fight” | Slice-of-life comedy with exaggerated local characters | | Short Films | “Kudla Delivery Boy”, “Dubbing Apprentice” | Social satire on modern jobs vs. traditional values | | Festival Specials | “Ganesha Chaturthi Chaos”, “Dasara Dialogues” | Relatable family prep and misunderstandings | | Parody Skits | “Tulu James Bond”, “Local Train Hero” | Spoofs of Bollywood/Tollywood using local references |
His most popular videos tend to be under 10 minutes, fast-paced, and feature recurring characters like the nosy neighbor, heroic but lazy youth, and stressed housewife.
Mangalore Videos AVi started with short skits and later moved into full-length feature films and web series. Here are their major projects:
| Aspect | Feedback | |--------|----------| | Comedy | Sharp, relatable, never vulgar. | | Production | Improved massively post-2021; sound mixing still amateurish occasionally. | | Writing | Strong social observation; endings sometimes rushed. | | Representation | Authentic to Mangalore’s Hindu and Catholic communities; less focus on Beary/Muslim characters, which some critics note. |
| Rank | Video Title | Year | Views (approx.) | Core Joke | |------|-------------|------|----------------|------------| | 1 | Auto Wale Papa – Part 2 | 2020 | 7.2 M | Father hiding from family in auto | | 2 | Kodipuda | 2021 | 4.5 M | Chicken chase scene | | 3 | Sakkad Sangha – Holi Special | 2022 | 4.1 M | Color fight gone wrong | | 4 | Mangalore WhatsApp University | 2019 | 3.8 M | Mocking forwarded fake news | | 5 | Boys Hostel vs Girls Hostel | 2017 | 3.0 M | Warden face-off |
These are considered the core filmography of Videosavi.
