Moreover, I don't think there is a more romantic figure in the history of Karnataka than Kumara Rama. A wonderful character that gives so much for the writer/filmmaker to play with.

Have seen this movie sometime back, and it didn't evoke the feelings that I got after watching, say a Mayura or a Ranadheera Kantheerava). Something was missing annisthu. As you have written, "the film meanders into a boring narrative at times". Another thing is that the grandness we associate with historical films is missing in this movie. By the way, another Kannada historical has got released today, after a long time. Gandugali Kumara Rama (Annavru maadbekittu, aaglilla). Got to see how this film fares, and how it has been made. Somehow, can't think of anyone else doing historical films other than Annavru. Thanks for this review. Waiting for more. Prithvi,
