Shakhahaari

Well made, beautiful acting, wonderful direction, good music and back ground music, no heros, all are common people, every role has a story to tell. If this movie were to be shot with top actors, it would have run for 100 days. But, people prefer top actors over top content and top acting, alas. The movie ran only for 2 weeks unfortunately. Cinematography is good. Malnad way of life is portrayed beautifully. A details shown, like his tear drops fall on dosa tawa and it boils. Some loopholes though - how was the lady allowed to enter crime scene at the end? What is the back story of lawyer? Why did his friend keep on coughing. These are minor, but movie is worth watching twice!

How some random events turn an innocent into a criminal...Keeping the thread of how he fights for his existence, "Sakhahari" finally comes to a climax giving a logical end to everything... "Shakahaari" takes unexpected turns and keeps the suspense going till the climax. If the narrative and screenplay had been speeded up according to the story of the movie, there was a possibility that "Shakhahari" would have touched the hearts of the audience more quickly and effectively. However, it can be said that the effort of the film team to present a new story to the audience has been successful here...

Now the credit goes to actors Rangayana Raghu and Gopalkrishna Deshpande who carried the entire movie on their roles till the end. Rangayana Raghu as a cook Bhatt and Gopalkrishna Deshpande as a police inspector are heartwarming performances. New talents like Vinay and Nidhi Hegde grabbed attention in their first attempt, while Sujay Shastri brought laughter to the audience every now and then. Other than that, the performances of the other actors are decent...

Technically, the cinematography and background music of the movie attract attention. Those who want to support the efforts of newcomers and those who are different from the usual movies can see "Sakhahari" once...

Overall A crime there was, but it was not at all what I was expecting. In that sense, debutant director Sandeep Sunkad's film came across as a pleasant surprise. The premise that played out was not bad at all, but took its own sweet time to reach the classact...
