Bengaluru/IBNS: Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai broke down at a screening of the film "777 Charlie" on Monday and called it a 'must-watch'. 

The film, Bommai said, reminded him of his dog Snooby that died last year, just a few weeks before he became the Chief Minister.

Kannada movie 777 Charlie, released on June 10, depicts the bond between a man and his pet dog Charlie.

It has garnered a positive response since its release.

The Chief Minister, who was seen in images wiping his tears, also recommends it as a must-watch.

"There have been movies about dogs but this movie shows animals with emotions. The dog expresses its emotions through its eyes. The movie is good, and everyone should watch it. I keep talking about unconditional love. A dog's love is unconditional love, which is pure," Bommai told reporters.

On social media, images of the Chief Minister weeping at the screening were shared along with photos of him in tears after his dog Snooby's death.
