This is the 200th movie from late Dr Vishnuvardhan for his fans across Karnataka .

This movie is complete justification for the previous version Aaptha Mithra. Avinash and Sandhya has done a great job . Vishnuvardhan does justice to the role.Vimala Raman as Nagavalli does a fine job.

Bhavana , Ramesh Bhatt , Lakshmi Gopalaswamy as supporting cast has done a descent job .

P.Vasu has executed the movie well . I liked his work in Aaptha Mithra and does a descent job in this flick too .

Songs in the movie are okay type .Gharani Gharani track does stick with you.

i recommend you to watch it .

I go with 7/10 ...

This is a must watch movie for all Dr Vishnuvardhan fans as it is his last movie.

It is well made movie with good graphic work.Acting is well done by all esp., Dr vishnuvardhan,Komal,Avinash. Vimala Raman excels as Nagavalli. Ramesh Bhat is wasted and so is bhavana. Vinayaprasad has done her bit.

I wasn't much impressed with some scenes in the movie particularly the snake scene which is ditto copied from tamil movie Chandramukhi. Also Dr Vishnuvardhan as vijaya Rajendra bahadur doesn't help the cause either

In the end i must say that its a good movie with decent storyline. It would have been an awesome movie if director had concentrated a bit on the nativity of the subject.

A sequel to "Manichithrathazhu" was the sole reason I watched this movie. However its more of "Chandramukhi II", with focus predominantly on the actor rather than the plot owing to which it doesn't size up quite well. Had the "Nagavalli" been the core premise it would have taken the movie on a different level altogether.

The opening scene doesn't integrate quite well to the the actual plot. If you have seen "Chandramukhi" then the sequel gets quite predictable leaving the novelty/ suspense wiped out completely (infact there is penny dropping moment which should have been avoided). In addition, there are too many family members get associated with the "Nagavalli" plot making it confusing. The CGI's are shoddy and the production values remind of 1980's. Comedy is appalling. Vishnuvardhan smirks were unwanted.

Hopefully the Telugu remake should deliver a product with a greater impact and tie up the loose ends.
