Director: Harshavardhan Kulkarni

In the lift, on the terrace, at the airport, across the kitchen sink — our man just wants to get laid.Okay, it’s an adult comedy. So you have skirt-chaser Gulshan Devaiah who is caught with his pants down, always. “Physical need,” he reasons with his friends.

Well, that explains the excess of hormones on display.Hunterrr tracks the life (libido, if you may) of a boy from his age of sexual awakening to the pheromone-charged days where he wants to “do it” with every woman.

Director Harshavardhan Kulkarni shows great maturity in handling the ever-horny hero. He keeps it real and simple, steering clear of the slapstick route embraced by so-called sex comedies.
But somewhere along the way, Hunterrr loses focus as it fails to attach any meaning to the hunt. And it doesn’t help that the “prey” are obliging all the time.

Devaiah keeps going though, just like the extra r’s in the title. And when he wants to slow down, he suffers from “withdrawal symptoms”. So it’s Savita bhabhi one day, the swimmer girl the next day and... the list is way too long.

Between “the present day” and numerous flashbacks, the viewer fails to keep a chronological tab of the hero’s escapades. And by the time the hormones are tamed, it’s too late to even care.
