==Cast==
* [[MG Srinivas]] as [[T.P. Kailasam]]
* [[Chaya Singh]] as Paatu/Eeke/Venkamma/Sule

==Plot==
''Simply Kailawesome'' is an ode to yesteryear legendary [[playwright]] [[T.P. Kailasam]]. It has a quirky take on the characters created by Kailasam in the past and how they start complaining to him as soon as he lands in the present, trying to find their current status.

Combining an auto-biographical tone with a fusion of thoughts within Kailasam's mind, the story of the short film is more of a congregation of his most famous female protagonists than a series of events. It also involves the playwright's own perspective about his first stint in drama, the way he picked his characters, his views on Anglo-Kannada and the events that inspired him to move away from traditional mythologies which was persistently found in most plays of the time.
