Orchestra Mysuru

Watched on prime and I can say it's honest try by the makers of the movie.

The pace of the movie in the start could have been more fast and more budget could have made this movie more entertaining and justifiable.

I wish more people should have watched in theatres for such kind of movies as where is live not many Kannada movies gets released. Poorna comman man loves to sing is the plot. The screenplay is in a slow pace and ends it beautifully.

A swamake Kannada movie with real and pure emotional story.

Don't miss this movie if you are passionate about something you do and have been suppressed by someone this story connects you quickly.

Not a weekend time pass movie. Lot to be learnt from the story.

Sunil Mysuru and team's ambitious project is honest to the core but gets tad bit pulled back by the slow narrative and long runtime which is close to 3hrs. Firmly aided by Raghu Dixit's music, the world of orchestra is well built and not to forget the support provided by Dileep Raj as Orchestra Star Naveen Raj. The research behind the world of orchestra completely shows as the makers claim it to be based on the real life experiences of Naveen Sajju and Raghu Dixit.

Poornachandra is an aspiring singer searching for a breakthrough. He loves singing and only seeks the chance to sing. He approaches Naveen Raj for a chance to join his orchestra team hoping to get a chance to sing. But Naveen Raj is focused on his single goal to sing at Yuva Dasara, an opportunity not given to local orchestra singers and this has made him an ignorant towards fellow artists. How Poorna makes it as a singer by overcoming the challenges thrown by Naveen Raj forms the story.

The detailing in presenting the life of orchestra singers, capturing Mysuru, good performances and music are it's strength. The slow pace does hinder the flow till a song carries the story forward. The humor works well too. With a crisp runtime, the film could've made a lasting impact as the third act is beautifully conceptualized between Poorna and Naveen Raj.

Being a Mysurean it was heart warming for me and at the same time absolutely fresh theme! Gandhinagar and its rich culture of orchestra was a huge revelation for me! Excellent performances from all the artists specially that of Poorna and Mahesh! Their chemistry was cute! The sublet encouragement of the senior photographer was touching. The positive power of social media, and inclusive growth was commendable! The wedding song and the final performance in Yuva Dasara was soulful. The movie could have been edited better and dialogues should have been sharper- the film was tad too long and picks up steam post 35 mins!

Film scores well in most of the areas. To begin with the acting of Poornachandra , he is an absolute talent . His extraordinary skills will definitely take him to a greater heights. Rajalakshmi has done well too, but dubbing artist for rajalakshmi could have done better. Director has won first half by gluing audience to their seats. Second half too was equally good however, could have been cut short by 20 mins. Music scores well with meaningful lyrics , though not catchy. (Dum idre hodi) only song that registered. Definitely worth a watch to support our mysore talents sure to make big names...

As an ardent Orchestra fan right from my childhood days in the late 70s and 80s...I can relates to all the characters shown in this movie and their challenges and aspirations.

A well made movie that requires a better showcase in the theaters.

Hats off to the conviction of the director and producers of this movie in brining the details of what happens behind the scenes of everyone associated with this occupation and hurdles that have to go thru just to be recognized as someone attempting to make a name for himself or herself.

Applaud Raghu Dixit on brining this to life ....Wishing him more success...👋👍🙌
