Saw this movie today with wife.

Good storyline, nice cast, tolerable songs.

Jokes weren't double meaning as u would usually expect in a jaggesh movie.....

As usual jaggesh acting s good. Good comic timing sense he has got. Shed some weight also I guess. He doesn't need any introduction in kannada cinema. He still has good acting/comedy sense. Just needs good stories and team for consistent hits.

Don't compare this movie to his previous movies. Almost zero nudity and doesnt try to impress with just jokes instead has good story/direction with jokes put in-between.

Female lead has done good acting too

Kudos to the director and his team.

Hayavadana (Jaggesh) is in his 40's and extremely desperate to get married. He is even more desperate to consummate the marriage because 40 year old virginity. He works at his father's restaurant which is also into catering. After several rejections, he finally gets married to Vyjayanthi (Shweta Srivatsav), from a traditional family. It is a late marriage and as expected, they struggle to conceive. Parallely, story of an evil politician Kumar eyeing to be a Minister also runs. What all does the couple go through after marriage and how the politician's action gets synced to the couple's lire forms rest of the story.

Director Santosh Ananddram picks a good themed story and also a lasting message. But his issue with overstuffing the screenplay continues with this film as well. The entire sub plot involving the politician simply doesn't sync with the main story. Also, the emotions involving the couple and their family is only on the surface. The conflicts that get highlighted is resolved the very next scene. These things simply downplay everything resulting in the scenes being less effective despite having the potential.

If the film focused solely about the late marriage then it would have been really special. Entire first half is dedicated to the humor around Hayavadana's failed attempt to have sex with his new wife. Somehow the humor doesn't cross the line to be crude. In the second half, relevant issues of infertility due to late marriage is raised and the film truly picks up from here, followed by the surrogacy being opposed by his father.

The film definitely deserved a better screenplay and the tonal shifts should've been taken care off. The comedy is not the hilarious kind, not the cringe kind as well and the melodrama is extensive. Proper balanced screenplay simply would've made this a special film.

Looks like director wanted to make an adult comedy inspired by old kashinath movies and then passed on a social message in last 5-10 minutes. Till last 10 min, this movie is adult comedy but director wanted to protray it as a social message oriented movie. Not sure how hombale agreed to produce this movie. Whole movie is about hero trying to get married and having sex. I remembered old Kashinath movies which had similiar theme but had better story and screenplay. After some point of time , sitting through full movie turns into torture. Kids will surely not enjoy the movie though it has a message related to kids at the end. Hombale needs to be careful while choosing the scripts.

Before making movies like this, please go and learn how to direct movies. All the characters are half baked,not even a single character is fleshed out. There is no story at all. The title of the movie is also misleading. Jaggesh doing same old 90's vulgar comedy, all he does in the movie is trying to consummate his marriage and this goes for too long. May be he should try doing character roles, his time as a leading man is over or else he'll become like Govinda of KFI. Wonder why they fund such movies. Total waste of time. I think these people start filming and then make the script probably. 2/10 better skip it.

Director, can you please stop making cinema. Total waste of resource, money and time. Hombale has too much money to invest in such bad tastes. There is no link between cinema name and story of cinema.

Apart from last line when Raghavendra stores feeds orphans, but centrealli yen mannu ella.

Jagdeesh modhala rathri prayathna poorthi cinema, aado maklu ayidhu nimishadalli maklu maadthave, nalvath warsha kathe jagesh ge edi cinema beku, prastha kelsa maximum andre ardha gante, adralli yenne kithi gudde hakidru 2 minutes alli ellidhu hoguthe, antha vishiya edi cinema yelldhavne director.

This directors yuvarathna was a failure, he is misusing his contacts, to all producers please don't make cinema with him.
