Kaddipudi

Shivaraj Kumar's 2013 release movie might have not made such a huge name in the box-office, but it has all those appreciable elements that any crime movie must have, the way it has been showed with much raw and realistic touch makes it the class work, the plot and characters truly sync a lot with the flow, it never loses its grip anywhere, Suri one of the most acclaimed Kannada Director shows how movie gets its power just by making it much realistic and simple, his making are so simple but has very much intense touch, its Shivaraj Kumar who makes us to review his performance with mixed perspective as a reformed man and the family guy where in some part he seems okay with his performance but in some scenes he shows very below average performances, Radika has good expressive acting that will be generally liked by the viewers and overall its one among the best Underworld Gangster crime flick in Kannada.

This is a movie that surprised with a better than expected performances and simple dialogues that coincide closely with reality. Shivrajkumar is very mellow in this and to be honest I think he is at his best(disclaimer: I have not watched all his movies by any means). Very simple and very very clean screen play. Even Rangayana Raghu has cleaned up his overacting and his comedy is very enjoyable. There are a few un needed characters that get masked with the other best parts of the movie. Radhika looks very nice in the whole movie. Her performance has improved by leaps. The best part was the ending, very simple, elegant and real world. Music direction seemed very different, new and enjoyable. This movie did not for once made me think of quitting but kept be glued to the screen. Congratulations to the whole team.

It is there in my watching list from so many years and forever.. watched lot of times everytime i use to find one or another new thing.. Irony of our Kannada film industry these kind of film wont get much exposure that they really deserves...
