Vidyapati is a delightful surprise. It takes a simple premise and turns it into a deeply human, funny, and thought-provoking experience. Siddu's journey from self-doubt to self-worth is both entertaining and moving. The film doesn't rely on heroism in the traditional sense-it's about quiet courage and emotional growth. The writing is sharp, the humor lands well, and the performances feel real and grounded. A charming film that stays with you long after the credits roll.
The cinematography and background score complement the tone beautifully, creating moments that are equal parts awkward, heartfelt, and hilarious. It's a film that knows exactly what it wants to say and does so with honesty and charm. Definitely worth watching and sharing.

Vidyapati - or Vidya's 'pati' aka husband is a tale of Siddu, a sly opportunist who manages to woo Vidya, a superstar actress, and marries her to live an exorbitant life with zero efforts. An unlikely confrontation with Jaggu when he insults Vidya puts Siddu in a tough spot to either beat the goon and make him apologize to her or "get out" of her house!
A puny-yet-cowardly Siddu has no choice but to resort to his childhood friend Kumara, and later his own family that he had long abandoned. Will Siddu reunite with Vidya? Does he manage to beat Jaggu? How does his family receive him after years? Watch it yourself to experience the fun.
The first thing that appeals to the audience are the impressive performances of the lead actors and the supporting cast. The dialogues are witty and the comic timing hits the right spot. The music by Dossmode and Vasuki Vaibhav carry the emotions well. The action sequences are well choreographed and a special cameo by 'Daali' Dhananjay, clubbed with an introductory fight scene is a treat for action lovers. Directors Esham Khan and Haseen Khan in their second cinematic venture but their first theatrical release have handled this comedy-emotional-action flick with grace and their evolution is apparent from their previous movie 'Ikkat' which was a lockdown-based comedy. The duo have also helmed the editing and writing departments, creating an entertaining product that appeals to all age groups, especially families and kids who want to watch a clean comedy entertainer. Technically, Vidyapati looks slick with some impressive frames captured by the DOP Lavith and a fine production design.
The Kannada audience have always loved a good film and Vidyapati is one that will remain in the hearts of those who watch it for a long time to come. Watch it and you won't regret it!

Vidyapati is a refreshingly original film that blends humor, emotion, and social commentary with surprising finesse. The performances are heartfelt, especially Nagabhushana's vulnerable lead and Malaika's quietly powerful presence. It's rare to see a film so honest about real emotions while still being so entertaining. And the directors have done an incredible job with its gripping screenplay and casting. A must-watch for lovers of thoughtful cinema with a quirky twist! The film offers something genuinely new with its role reversals, emotional depth, and subtle satire. Even its action sequences serve a narrative purpose, making this a unique and rewarding watch.

Vidyapati is a daring, genre-defying Kannada film that smartly flips conventional tropes on their head. At its core, it's a comedy-drama that dissects masculinity, self-worth, and the fragile male ego, wrapped in a quirky yet heartfelt narrative.
Siddu, the protagonist, is not your typical macho hero. When he fails to protect his successful actress-wife from an attack, his confidence shatters. What unfolds is not a revenge saga, but a journey of self-discovery, redemption, and emotional growth-told through satire and sincere emotion. As Siddu joins a karate class to reclaim a sense of pride, the film critiques traditional gender roles, portraying a role-reversal where the man must confront his insecurities in a marriage where the woman is the high-achiever.
The film's tonal mix is refreshing-balancing awkward comedy, stylized action, and emotional depth, reminiscent of Malayalam indie gems. There are no grand hero entrances or dramatic punches; instead, we get stumbles, silences, and a hero who is refreshingly uncool. Nagabhushana N S brings vulnerability and humor to Siddu, making him lovable even in his absurdity. Malaika T Vasupal, playing his wife, radiates quiet strength and dignity, becoming the film's emotional anchor without ever being reduced to a trope.
Garuda Ram's exaggerated villainy adds comic heft, contrasting Siddu's underdog position. Meanwhile, the direction by Esham and Haseen Khan is sharp and observant, with cinematography that emphasizes the protagonist's internal struggle through tight framing and stylized visuals. The background score cleverly shifts between tension and whimsy, echoing the emotional rollercoaster of the story.
Verdict: Vidyapati is bold, satirical, and emotionally grounded-a film that laughs at its hero with love. It's perfect for those who enjoy satire, social commentary, and offbeat dramas with heart.

Thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the movie! Daali's entry was absolutely electrifying - a true highlight that set the tone for the excitement ahead. The climax was wonderfully executed and left a strong impact. The martial arts sequences were like icing on the cake, bringing extra thrill and finesse to the story. Nagabhushana's acting is truly appreciable, while Malaika delivered a great performance with style and emotion. Every actor gave their 100%, and it clearly shows on screen. It's been a long time since a film like this came along - one that's high on entertainment, energy, and heart. Watch it, and you won't be disappointed! Kudos to Esham and Haseen for their brilliant direction! Their vision, storytelling, and command over every scene reflect a rare creative synergy. It genuinely feels like a breath of fresh air in Kannada cinema. With such clarity, style, and emotional depth, they've proven themselves as promising and dynamic filmmakers to watch out for. Their ability to balance mass appeal with meaningful content is commendable. Kannada industry surely needs more movies from this talented duo - the future looks bright with them at the helm!

Nagabhushana delivers a commendable performance, portraying Siddu's transformation with nuance. Malaika Vasupal brings depth to Vidya, balancing strength and vulnerability. Garuda Ram's portrayal of Jaggu adds a formidable presence to the narrative.

I don't know who rated this movie so low. But if you actual reviews all are 10/10. One of the most underrated movie of Indian cinema. I hope this movie will get the recognition it deserves. Perfect direction and screenplay. And incredible acting from the lead actors. It felt like I'm waiting Chandi chowk to chaina movie. It's fine people start accepting movies like this.
Even though the story of the movie is pretty simple. Execution is top- notch. There are lot of goosebumps moments. Hats off to director for coming up with a unique story life. I think the first kungfu movie of Kannada cinema.

The movie started with a decent pace, but something about it kept me hooked. I found myself smiling through the awkward moments and really caring about Siddu by the end. It's not flashy or dramatic, but it has its own charm. Felt like watching someone's real-life mess unfold gently.

We watched Vidyapati as a family, and it was truly a memorable experience! My son absolutely loved it - he couldn't stop talking about the fun moments and the excitement throughout the movie. It's been a long time since we went to the theatre together, and I'm so glad we chose this film. Watching it on the big screen was totally worth it! The movie captivated all of us, from the gripping action scenes to the heartwarming moments. Every second was packed with entertainment, and we were all engaged throughout. The energy in the theatre made it even more special, and the film's vibrant storytelling kept us hooked from start to finish. It was a perfect family movie - full of laughter, emotion, and thrill. We really enjoyed every moment, and it reminded me how much fun it is to watch a film together with the whole family. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a complete movie experience!
