Review
Kannada director Shivamani who makes his
debut as hero through this film, seems to fumble. Though an
excellent director, he has not been able to portray himself well
onscreen. Shivamani's main disadvantages seem to be his stature,
inability to emote and lack-lustre dialogue delivery. He would
have done well to take a small screen test before venturing onto
the big screen. It is rather unfortunate that Chandini has nothing
much to do. Nirmal Pande pales in front of local guy Harish Rai.
Gurukiran has tuned three lovely songs. Technically, the film is
excellent. Story Line
Shivu (Shivamani) meets Shalini (Chandini)
accidentally, but the incident is wrongly interpreted by the
underworld kingpin Rai, who is Shalini's brother. Shivu is
therefore bashed up severely and sent home. As he is living
adjacent to Shalini's house, he sees the trauma she is put
through. He is wild and swears that he will 'from that moment'
love Shalini and later marry her. Shalini is not surprised with
this announcement and she also reciprocates his love. In comes the
underworld dada Rai. He makes a frantic attempt to wean his sister
from Shivu, but it does not work. The lovers elope and face a lot
of stiff opposition. They then decide to enlist the support of
their college friends. After a series of chases, spewing blood and
bash-ups... the climax is reached. |
