    A Masterpiece!!!

    The film not only reminds you of Shri Hangal Kumaraswamiji's struggles, but it also makes you realise how much we owe him, for which we are now grateful.

    His progressive thinking has brought a revolution that we had forgotten.

    The film captivates emotionally and kudos to the cast members to perform in a way that reaches every heart.

    It's not just a spiritual journey; it's above and beyond that... A musical masterpiece, incredible actors...

    The perspective on life will be different if you have watched the movie-extremely positive and mind-blowing.

    Many iconic moments and beautiful music.

    A beyond-amazing, powerful motivational film.

    Masterpiece

    Viratapura Viraagi tells the life story of His Holiness Shri Hanagal Kumar Mahaswamiji and how he dedicated his life for the service and upliftment of humanity. In these modern times, it is really important for our generation to know, understand and follow the teachings of such a great saint.

    The performances in the movie are outstanding, particularly Shri Suchendra Prasad as Shri Hanagal Kumar Swamiji and Shri Jadeya Shantlingeshwar Mahaswamiji as Yalandur Basavalinga Mahaswamiji. The interactions between them are some of the most powerful moments in the film.

    Watching the movie is a divine experience in itself, brilliant direction, beautiful music and great acting makes this movie a masterpiece. There are so many scenes which are so deep, emotional and heart touching that the viewer is reduced to tears.

    Big thanks to the Director Shri B. S. Lingadevaru for making this work of art.

    History, philosophy, spirituality in a perfect mix

    Viratapura Viragi is not just a movie but light!

    It opens up our inner urge for doing better, living better and leave behind a mark.

    It'll inspire one to follow the spiritual path.

    It's a movie portraying life and works of the great Sri Hanagal Kumarswamigalu.

    The casting and music are exemplary.

    Director B S Lingadevaru has delivered yet another masterpiece.

    The recreation of the timeline is done absolutely precisely. A perfect period drama. Costumes amd locations are so authentic.

    Music has a special place amd applaud. Complicated philosophies of sharanas and shivayogis are made so accessible. Each and every song is so beautiful. My personal favourite is Bisilemba guruvinge. Special mention to Kadri Manikath.

    Don't except great entertainment because it's not an entertainer. It's a life of a great person who walked on the lands we currently live in.

    Veerashaiva acharanes are shown very authentically and precisely. It'll be a great documentary for many generations to come.

    Must watch for one and all.
    10viratpuraviragi

    Viratpura Viragi is without a doubt one of the best gifts you can give yourself this year.

    Sharanas have chronicled their experiences and path towards divinity in unique literature known as vachanas.

    Some of these vachanas have been beautifully compiled.

    Watch the movie and be inspired...

    This is without a doubt one of the best gifts you can give yourself this year.

    The movie resonates with the most essential thoughts a human should reflect upon.

    It's not about a religion; it's about humanity.

    It comprehends the true meaning of the trinity of Guru , Linga and Jangama .

    It's unusual to come across such a great story and a maker...

    When you watch the Linga Pooje scenes, silence fills your mind.

    Best biography of Shree Hanagalla Kumaraswamiji

    One of the best biography based on the true life story of abhinava Basava shree Hanagalla Kumareshwara swamiji. He is truly a viragi and his life is a living example of how mathas works for the betterment of the society through thrividha dasoha. He is an inspiration for an entire humanity on how a man can achieve extraordinary things by putting society ahead of self. This movie should be watched by one and all. The director has done a great job by depicting the true events happened in the life of swamiji. He has done good research about swamiji as it can be seen from the screen play and the dialogues. Lead actor Suchendra Prasad sir has done a great justice to the role of Swamiji. There are several Swamiji's acted in this movies to get the natural touch for some scenes. Usage of vachanas and Nijaguna shivayogis songs is another highlight of the movie. Shree Manikanth kadri done a great job with melodious Music score. Nodalagade song is superbly composed and sung by Pandit Soragavi sir!!! Its a master piece and highlight of the movie. He deserves an award for his blissful singing. Over all a great experience watching this movie.

    Parama poojya shree Mouna tapaswi avara ichchashakthi inda intha ondu olleya drushyakavya sadhavaayitu. Avaru Saha chalana chitradalli natisiruvudu chitra highlight. Avaranna dodda parademele nodode ondu habba.
