    Great Movie

    It's based on true story happened really in bangalore somewhere in 1990s. First of was a bit lag but second half was good interesting. All the actors in the movie have done their best I didn't feel poor acting anywhere in entire movie. This is the best movie compared to other movies released recently. I have given my genuine review. I don't know why others are given shockingly one star. The movie is very very good if you like love stories and violence this is suitable for you. I liked meghanas acting.

    This movie is worth money. I am sure about it.

    Please watch it...u will not regret spending your time.

    Worst movie

    Yesterday I went for a paid premiere show at GT mall, Seriously Hero with no acting skills, No expression , No dialogue delivery skills No dance skills he just looks like a junior artist but director has tried to get work from him but again hero failed to deliver what director wanted overall one more flop for director and hero is full of flops this is his 3rd flop movie and according to me he should stop acting and directors should get some good talents out there who are struggling to do something in industry definitely not even one time watchable movie at all just ignore this movie sad truth.

    Kaiva is truly one of the most entertaining movies, blending the backdrop of Bangalore's underworld with a compelling love story.

    I watched "Kaiva" movie today, and I was truly pretty impressed by how it blended a love story with real-life 90s Bangalore underworld happenings. It's not the first movie about Bangalore gangsters, but it's definitely up there in terms of authenticity.

    The storytelling in "Kaiva" is top-notch, keeping the audience engaged from start to finish without a dull moment. Huge credit goes to the director and story writer, Jayatheertha, for pulling it off so well.

    Dhanveer's performance as the hero is really commendable. Despite having acted in only a handful of movies in the past, he delivers a mature performance in "Kaiva". He definitely has the potential to become a beloved star in the Kannada industry, but it's crucial for him to continue choosing stories like "Kaiva" that allow him to showcase his talent effectively.

    The music in "Kaiva" is amazing, thanks to Music Director Ajaneesh. It fits perfectly with the story, and the song "Nagu Hoove" is especially touching. Ajaneesh did a fantastic job!

    The cinematography and editing in the movie is excellent. Great work from Shwetpriya Naik and K. M. Prakash.

    Overall, "Kaiva" is truly one of the most entertaining movies, blending the backdrop of Bangalore's underworld with a compelling love story. A big shoutout to the entire team for their outstanding work, and best wishes to them for their future projects!
