Love is everything it's cracked up to be. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. " - Erica Jong.

"'For a while' is a phrase whose length can't be measured. At least by the person who's waiting." - Haruki Murakami.

"But it is easy to speak of the past, impossible to go there. I am powerful in ways you can only dream, yet I am still a prisoner of what I have done. I can never escape the cell I have made for myself. Things are what they are." - Joe Abercrombie.

The above quotes encapsulates the essence of "Sapta Sagaradaache Ello Side B" a film that has left me lingering in the ocean's hushed embrace, hours after dream-like conclusion. I am overwhelmed by the sheer depth and complexity of the feelings it has stirred within me, adrift in a sea of emotions, in the rhythmic cadence of the tides that defy articulation. In the heart of Bangalore, Manu's tale embark on a relentless quest for a closure, revenge and redemption. He still holds on to the echoes of past, the indelible regrets, unfulfilled wishes that have shackled his soul. Here in Part B Manu is a loafer, a tormented soul who still has nemesis from the past but only to find that his mind is his most formidable adversary. In this obsessive pursuit Manu transforms through voyeuristic lens, fixated on Priya, becomes consumed by her as his every thought and action revolves around her whereabouts and spending time with her child. This act can irk some people but it is shown as a momentary solace as the vibrant hues of memory dance within him, providing illusion of joy. Along the way, we as the audience begin to yearn to decipher the truth and hope the cracked mirrors mend. To uncover the enigma of Manu, one must bear witness to the film's captivating spectacle on the silver screen. Beguiled by SIDE A, i have been anticipating this day for a closure. I must say it a fitting finale, a hard hitting swansong and a sequel that is punctuated by unexpected musical interludes and subtle gags. Getting it right for a sequel has been a hit or a miss and not often does it satisfy viewer expectations. The blood-red climax is one of the standout sequence, i read some shallow cinephiles calling it as an unnecessary indulgence, overly gratuitous but ignore them. It will garner polar reactions, to each his or her own but i feel it is about time Rakshit Shetty takes up a mass hero role with good writing and the impact would been compelling.

Kudos to director Hemanth Rao and team for creating this technically sound of a film and a poetic gem that will stand as a towering testament for the Kannada film industry. Also, I suggest if anyone reading this to check out my review for SIDE A whenever you have a moment.

This sequel stands as a testament to cinematic excellence, seamlessly maintaining the high standards set by its predecessor. Diverging from its predecessor, the narrative unfolds in a distinct temporal setting, with characters aging a decade, offering a fresh and compelling perspective.

While sequel expectations can often loom over a film, approaching this installment with an open mind yields a satisfying viewing experience. The ensemble cast, akin to the first installment, delivers stellar performances that elevate the overall cinematic appeal.

Rakshit's portrayal is nothing short of brilliant; his nuanced expressions in pivotal scenes defy verbal description. Rukmini, while not visually reflecting the ten-year gap, delivers an outstanding performance, her silent moments resonating powerfully in key sequences.

Hemanth's directorial prowess remains consistently exceptional, guiding the narrative with a deft touch. The cinematography, set design, costumes, and musical score are meticulously crafted, harmonizing seamlessly with the film's tonal shifts.

In conclusion, this sequel is a must-watch, a testament to the collaborative brilliance of its cast and crew. Each element, from the direction to the technical aspects, contributes to an immersive and captivating cinematic experience.

SSB is a wonderful experience for me, i had watched it 4 times.

It's a pearl of sensational writing, music, excellent performance by the actor's & more it's a sensational in way of story telling by Hemanth Rao. Bro, you made a perfect mean of love ✨❤, the way you're narrating everything is suffused in hearts of people.

The scenes, aesthetic lighting, perfect cuts made a more impression seems like different genres both A n B in sense of showing 2 phases of life in a heartful manner!

The characters played by Rukmini & Shetty sir was top notch, Moreover after Charlie that much impact given by sheety sirwith this performance. In this Part B, Surabhi too good in her role, Both their reciprocity was another plus point to movie. & The climax was terrific, didn't expected. May be that's y Hemanth is good in writing!!

It took me to the depth of emotions by its strong and complex writting,fresh screenplay,it creates another world and its reflects true feelings of love. Director played with our emotions by his excellent content and story.

Rakshit Shetty did it very well,that music makes you indulge in the story. I forgot the outside world while watching this.

It's a best of the best ever made in Indian Cinema. It's an achievement in story,screenplay,music.

I cannot come out of that world till now. Worth to watch it.

With today's love culture, it's difficult to find this type of love.it depicts the real meaning of love.

I liked Side A, but was not much happy about it's pace. Felt it was slow, but it's expected going by Hemanth's previous ventures.

But, Side B is paced nicely. Acting by Rakshith is impressive and so the other actors.

Technically, movie is rich and proves that a talented team doesn't need big budget to make impressive movie. Many things are not obvious in the movie, for example the way the violent dog pestering heroine is handled and used by the hero.

BGM and songs are top class.

On the down side, the movie would have been more impactful if it was made as a single part because the first part emotions is lost.

Also, movie could have been even more faster.

Climax fight could have been more realistic though the violence is brilliantly masked by good direction.

The hue of the side B is aptly changed to Red from Blue of side A. While the Blue side A depicted the deep yet delicate, intense yet beautiful love between Manu and Priya, the Red side B is mature yet vulnerable!

Red depicts anger, revenge, passionate love all at the same time. Underlying emotion in both sides are exactly same.

Side B belongs to Rakshit Shetty - you start becoming Manu, delving deep into his mind and feeling every nuance of his thought, expression and action. Rakshit's performance is incredible. Rukmini Vasanth and Chaitra Achar are top notch. In fact Chaitra has nailed the character! Very subtle, real nuanced - There is a scene where she goes to meet Priya's husband - OMG, it is textbook ! Watch it to believe it.

Hemanth Rao's genius is translated into this poetic masterpiece. Music/BGM is in fact the other hero here... Climax tugs every string of your heart. The movie haunts you long long after you have watched it. It is simply difficult to come out of Manu's world after the movie gets over. Heart feels heavy, mind get blown... Overall, watch it for the Performances, for Hemanth's poetic capture, supreme cinematography and simply for Manu!

SUCH AN AMAZING WORK DONE BY HEMANTH RAO AND TEAM. RAKSHITH SHETTY ACTING NAILED THE ENTIRE CINEMA . TEARS ARE DROPPING DOWN CONTINOUSLY WHILE WATCHING CLIMAX SCENE FIRSTLY THE HEART TOUCHED SONG IS KADALANU KANA HORATIRO.. SONG MAKE ME SO MUCH EMOTIONAL.

BY.

HARSHARAMYA.

One of the best Kannada movie (duology) I have ever seen.

The story, music, characters, emotions are so much intertwined that, you become Manu, Priya or Surabhi and live their emotions while watching the movie.

The masterpiece of Hemanth Rao's direction and the hardwork of actors (literally everyone) including the music which is the soul of this movie (Side A & Side B).

The struggle of a middle class couple whose love is challenged by a decision and how it changes everything in their lives and their future is been portrayed in the movie picture perfect way.

A must watch in the age of movies which has no substance and stupid comedy or fight based movies, this movie is like a beacon of light.

To continue from part A, the movie takes off well with the right characters playing there role diligently however as the pace tries to pick up it goes back in loop. Where it lacks is, manu th our lead actor trying to get over his love from past. Too much of melodrama and dragged the subjects and their characters and weaving emotions. For a fair bit of audience they may like the movie but people like me who believe in reality. This movie is like give me a break. If I have to conclude they could have merged both part A and B into one movie.

Great attempt by the director but stellar preformance by all the actors. Music is average, barring one song, I felt part A songs were better.

Protoganist manu's character's lack of positive attitude towards life, living in the past and stalking which cannot be justified. Sad that there is still no character development in SIDE B and giving no hope but sad mood to the audience...

As usual Rakshit Shetty has done a commendable job but it was ChaItra achar who steals the show with her methodical performance and holds the soul of the movie... Rukmini character is under played or kept mute with no scope as much as prequel arguably it was her charisma that that drove us to the cinema hall which the director failed to utilised to the fullest...First half could have been trimmed for better results...

Overall the film lost its way in SIDE B with so called cinematic cliches & Director lost the golden opportunity of a movie that was supposed to be cult classic of all time.

Disclaimer: I consider 'Sapta Sagaradaache Ello' side-A and B as just one long movie.

SSE is a must watch movie. The direction, writing, acting, music... are all of top tier quality. The realistic and gritty portrayal of everyday life of the middle-class and the near-poor leaves a significant impact on viewers. Like the lyrics of the movie's songs, there is beautiful poetry throughout the movie.

You can't predict where it's going next and that keeps you invested until the very end. There are a lot of little things and details in the backdrop that keeps the flow of story engaging. The messy prison, the textile factory, the shabby house, the broken train... show that that the writers and the director are not only creative as heck, but they did their research too. The action sequences are also done really well, where every punch and stab feel as painful as they do in real life.

The music is great, many songs are still on my playlist. The actors have done an excellent job. Rakshith Shetty takes the top prize, no doubt. But the actress who played 'Surabhi' is too good an actress to remain unknown to the masses.

I didn't find the movie to be slow. There are movies which should've been shorter (Avane Sriman Narayana comes to mind). But in SSE's case, if it was any faster, it might not have been as impactful as it is now.

Some criticisms: What bothered me the most in the movie is the villain. The villain's actions and thoughts should make the audience feel dread and disgust. But here, the director uses the villain's sexual orientation itself to invoke or amplify those emotions in the audience. That is so wrong.

And the stalking and self-destructive obsession of the protagonist too bothered me. But I guess that's what the movie wants us to witness. When he walks out of cocoon he flew in as a butterfly, he chooses not to remain a butterfly but to become a worm (sorry Roopanthara).

I saw Side A, yesterday night and this today morning. Felt like, I watched Kireedam and Chenkol back to back and broke into pieces even though this ending in a way has got some silver linings to it. The music and such nuanced brilliant yet simple-sounding dialogues are what makes these movies truly great. Chaitra Achar who played the new character Surabhi, who kind of looked like Alia Bhatt to me, was also brilliant here, besides Rakshit and Rukmini. I feel like the two parts could have used more space between the releases so that the viewers could actually feel the time jump and see the second part with a bit of nostalgia. That way it would've been so much more impactful, or maybe I just feel like that because I basically watched it back to back.

What a beautiful movie! Brilliant direction, acting and music. So many emotions and story was told by different details in each scene. Truly great art where audience can feel how much thoughts and efforts might have gone into planning and making each scene. Part B was perfect and yet a realistic end to Manu and Priya's story.

Surabhi a new character in part B just added so much hope and positivity in Manu's life. Even just the colors were telling so much story of Manu's new life how red was slowly dominating blue.

MUST WATCH FOR THOSE WHO APPRECIATE REAL CINEMA NOT BRAINLESS COMEDY AND VOILENCE MOVIES.

A story that will live on in audience's heart for really long time. Brilliant work! Not to be missed. Finally a best closure. Wait for it was worth it!

The first half is indeed impressive, since the story continues from the point where it left off the last time. The flashbacks, the juxtapositions, and the clever cinematographic inputs are quite admirable in here; even the addition of "Surabhi" brings a fresher equation into play.

However, post-interval, the plot seems to lose its track, and the focus gets blurred as the narrative desperately tries to branch out by inviting an antagonist figure from the past.

While their intentions may have been naive, this approach diminishes the efficacy of the core storyline and weighs down the emotional quotient significantly. Although the ending seems to find itself a closure, it could have been more befitting, more special, if only the script not ventured indecisively into too many subplots, too many side stories.

I must say that Side-B is undoubtedly the best movie I've seen this year. The characters were very relatable in the first part, but in the second part, it made me question my own choices and mistakes. I wondered how they would wrap up such a complex story after the first part, but hats off to the team for executing it seamlessly. The actors did a great job, and the technicians portrayed the meaning behind each scene perfectly. Although the first part may have felt slow-paced for some, it was meant to be that way. The second part was perfectly intense and much darker than the first. I cannot put it into words, it was an experience that exceeded all my expectations. Overall, it was the kind of film that takes you by surprise and leaves you in deep contemplation. Both Side-A and Side-B caught me off guard, and I enjoyed every moment of it.

Side B begins 10 years later, with Manu serving his sentence. He moves from a smaller jail to a bigger one where he is still imprisoned by his past and his inability to move on. His life still revolves around Priya though there is no life together for them. How does he set right Priya's troubled life while taking revenge on the ones who wronged him along with starting to dream a new life with a new partner, forms rest of the story.

Once again the film is technically strong and visually brilliant. The bar was set too high by Side A and perhaps, it was too much for Side B to match it. The writing is decent in the first half with Manu turning into an obsessive stalker. Like Side A, here too the first half mainly revolves around Manu and Priya with introduction of two main characters, her husband and his new companion. The pace remains slow here and few shots especially the mirror shot stands out.

It is the second half where the film works big time with the revenge plot unveiling. This is where the hero gets multiple massy moments which any commercial director would die for. Thankfully it is not all about revenge and bloodshed, as the director still comes back to core plot i.e. Manu and Priya. This somewhat costs the characterization of Surabhi as her outburst on paper looks good but on screen is slightly less effective. The performances however elevate the scenes further and kudos to Ramesh Indira, making for a terrific villain.

The comparison with Side A is inevitable and it is exactly where the first half of Side B falls short of as too much emphasis is put on building up the story. The film moves onto a predictable end but the director gets hold of the second half to ensure it delivers the high moments. The songs again become the soul of the film and the colors though not blue, bring in life to the film. Overall, it is good follow up to the first part but the bar was unfairly set too high for this one.

Warning: Grab your tissues! Side B is a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Ten years after prison, Manu (Rakshit Shetty is phenomenal) is a broken man haunted by memories of Priya. The world has moved on, but Manu is trapped, clinging to a worn cassette tape - his only connection to his lost love. Just when you think you know where the story's going, enter Surabhi (Chaitra Achar is brilliant). Their unexpected bond challenges Manu to face his past and rebuild his life. Side B isn't just about romance; it's about grief, acceptance, and the possibility of finding solace in unexpected places. Director Hemanth Rao weaves a beautiful tapestry of emotions, avoiding melodrama. The supporting cast adds depth to the story, and the film leaves you pondering long after the credits roll. It's a reminder of love's enduring power, the importance of letting go, and the hope for redemption. Prepare to be surprised, heartbroken, and ultimately filled with a newfound appreciation for life's complexities.

I'm sitting at the mall and writing a review for this movie. This movie is equivalent to the first part, but amazing acting by Rakshit Shetty... Especially in the climax.

You can't watch this movie easily with children, and there are scenes with adult connections in the movie through out, though nothing explicit because it is shetty movie. Hemanth direction is as usual and good. Charan Raj has given better music in the movie compared to the first.

You see some scenes as recapitulation from the first part of the movie. Don't miss the movie if you are an artistic movie buff, the movie is a bridge movie and also Mallu style Kannada movie.

Am the only one that's thinking the protagonist is a stalker, I felt I was watching Upendra from preethse. The story offer nothing new highly overrated don't know what the craze is. The action part felt like I'm watching old movies where antagonist kidnaps the heroine and hero comes in for the rescue . Only liked the character Prakash and no offense the kids acting and voice dubbing felt out of place. Went to the theatre after watching side a on prime had expectations but it fell apart.

P. S I don't think he came out from jail he's spending money on another female actress left and right where the money came from.

What is Gangs of Wasseypur to Bollywood in terms of Cult Classic Crime thrillers or Local Gangwar stories, this is the same in Kannada Film Industry for Romance cum Revenge thrillers.

Exceptionally well written with respect to tory and Screenplay both , complimented so well by Charan Raj in terms of music and background score. Meaningful songs for the script and picturised so well for a movie filled with wonderful acting by the entire crew.

Overall, these both part movies are a milestone for Kannada Film Industry as well as For Rakshit Shetty and Rukmini Vasanth. All co-actors have done well too but the star or highlight of the movie is none other than Hemanth Rao.

Not to miss movie for KFI.

It is a movie which will remain in the hearts forever.... After watching side a and teaser of side b I thought side b will be about manu getting back priya by planning and plotting but the movie is totally different and gives goosebumps at every scene.... Especially manu and priya restaurant scene where helplessness is beautifully shown by eyes...they both loved blindly but now cannot be together anyhow... It shows emotions at its best and purest form of love That if you can't get someone in your life then also you can give love to that person by making that person's life better.. makers should be encouraged to take risk and make such kind of beautiful movies.
