A larger than life portrayal of Puneeth, good story and screenplay, excellent music are the highlights. The initial introduction to Puneeth is a little comical, but goes well with the story. This is a 10/10 movie had not been for a couple of unnecessary songs which doesn't feel natural as part of the narration.
Excellent movie which is very heart touching. Fantastic. You can watch it on Hotstar and YouTube for free. Its action, romance, children's film, drama & adventure combination is outstanding. After losing his family, Siddharth learns about the various issues that they faced. He decides to take care of the people at an old age home but Jagannath attempts to foil his plans.

Kudos to Santosh Anandram, the Director who made another successful venture after Mr. And Mrs. Ramachari, This movie is a cult classic and blend mixture of emotions. Action, Comedy, Sentiment is at top notch in this movie. Puneeth Rajkumar's acting is a Masterstroke, Priya Anand acting is good, Anant Nag acting is excellent and every actors present in this movie justified their roles.

I really don't know how it got 9+ IMDb rating. Unrealistic scenes and Worst screenplay. Pure mass movie...., overrated by social media. Typical and week story line.same old 90's fights. Good thing about movie is richness and Punit's dance. Director failed to utilize some of the great supporting actors properly(Anathnag, Ashok).

Raajakumara is a refreshing blend of great storytelling and honest performances. It keeps you engaged without trying too hard, and leaves a quiet impact that stays with you. Simple, meaningful, and worth a watch. If you're looking for something meaningful, something that doesn't just entertain but also touches you, this film is worth your time. It's not just a movie-it's a moment of reflection captured on screen. To sum it up, Raajakumara is a quiet, emotional, and beautifully told story that reminds us that simplicity, when done right, can be far more powerful than spectacle. It doesn't need a grand setup or complex twists to be effective-just honest storytelling and real emotion.

One of the most overrated film I have seen in this year...
The film uses every possible platitude of a family drama. A stereotyped story sprinkled with an overdose of moral values are presented in an extremely tangled manner.
The story is mediocre, the screenplay is good, the direction is bad and cinematography is even worse. Director tries to manipulate audience emotionally at various points but sadly it doesn't work out. If the director may have tried to present the story in some different manner, it might have felt better. The narration uses every possible cliché present in these types of movie.
The film was even confused about its own course. It begins as a family drama which quickly shifts into a romantic comedy, then into a conspiracy thriller and then it turns into an action fare and ends with an overdose of family values. A lot of scenes were beyond logical explanation which acts like another nail in the coffin.
While I am not denying its noble intention but convoluted supervision descends the calibre of this movie.
Even Puneeth was not in its peak form. While he was good mostly but in certain scenes, it seemed like he was just sleepwalking. Priya was just there to fill the seat of the romantic interest of the protagonist. Rest of the supporting cast was good.
The things I liked about this movie was its comedy, its music, dancing by Puneeth and the montage of Rajkumar sir during end credits. Other than these, everything thing was so messed up.
So, overall an overrated film which tries to conquer contemporary grounds but turns out into nothing more than a projection of stereotyped senectitude of cinema. Strictly average movie..

Story kicks off as Riley attends a three-day hockey camp, hoping to secure a spot on her high school's esteemed Fire Hawks team. A "puberty alarm" disrupts the emotional headquarters in her mind, introducing Anxiety, Ennui (Adèle Exarchopoulos), Embarrassment (Paul Walter Hauser), and Envy (Ayo Edebiri). These new emotions, particularly Anxiety, take control, sidelining Joy and her crew, which leads to Riley making impulsive choices that strain her friendships and self-esteem. The film's inventive worldbuilding-featuring a "Sar-Chasm" and a "Stream of Consciousness"-keeps the visuals engaging, while its focus on Riley's evolving "Sense of Self" delivers a universal message about embracing all emotions, even the messy.
