    Super - Danish is the Borat of Indian cinema

    Hilarious - Just watch it. Especially if you can relate to Bangalore

    Strictly for Danish Sait fans

    For a debutante, Danish has done really well, portraying a funny but corrupt Kannada Politician. the strong supporting cast of Stand-up comedians Vamsi and Sumukhi, aided by Shruti, Roger and Vijay chendoor have done well to complete the package.

    The movie is good for fans of Danish Sait's usual performances as the stereotypical Bangalore Kannadiga with their hopelessly bad command over the English language and grammar. It isn't for people expecting a ground-breaking political comedy.

    Definitely worth a one-time watch, especially for the Funnier-in-real-life cast and the bold statements the film tries to make !

    Crazy satirical comedy flick on present day politicians

    Eagerly waiting for the web series and see more of Nograj sir. Lead characters clearly represent reality and conflict between corrupted politicians and people who want to bring and be the change in the society. The dialogue diction of Nograj stays with you for quite a long time.

    Very refreshing for Kannada Cinema..Very entertaining Film!

    To attempt a political satire first of all is like taking a big risk in Kannada cinema! To top that to choose it as your debut film takes a lot of guts, conviction and faith in your ability - for these reasons alone hats off to Actor Danish Sait and Director Saad Khan. This movie is entertainment from start to finish and with a strong message!

    Saad as a director has shown great promise in the way he has handled the actors - Danish can sometimes come across as caricaturish, to ensure his acting just doesn't feel like a series of gags but as an overall performance, credit to the director for pulling it off.

    The story keeps you engaged and there are a plenty of laugh out loud moments to keep you entertained! The writing is good, screenplay is tight and the film breathes a bit making it a tad bit longer for a few people - but in my opinion, this was needed to ensure that audience gets the feel of the other characters in the movie as well.

    The film also excels in other departments such as Music, Production design and really brings you into the world of Nograj and his shenanigans! Highly recommended watch!
