Ramesh
Aravind
has
chosen
comedy
projects
over
other
in
the
recent
years
and
he
has
tasted
success
too.
Now,
the
actor
is
back
with
yet
another
film
in
the
same
genre
in
the
form
of
Manganakaili
Manikya.
Let
us
see
what
the
movie
has
to
offer...
More
than
story
lines,
it
is
the
well-written
scenes
that
make
comedy
films
hit.
Hilarious
one-liners
have
become
the
flavour
of
the
season.
New-age
audience
enjoy
dialogues
more
than
the
scenes.
The
latest
movie,
Manganakaili
Manikya
too
banks
on
one-liners.
From
the
opening
scenes
to
the
last,
director
Rajendra
Karanth's
dialogues
keep
you
entertaining.
Before
the
opening
credits
are
shown,
we
are
told
about
head-weight
director
played
Rajendra
Karanth
walking
out
of
a
project
titled
Katriguppe
produced
by
leading
filmmaker
Prabhu
(Rangayana
Raghu).
It
becomes
a
prestige
issue
for
the
producer
and
he
challenges
the
director
saying
that
he
would
make
the
movie
with
a
different
director
and
taste
success.
As
Prabhu
searches
for
the
right
man
to
helm
the
project,
Bhasmasura
aka
Manohara
(Ramesh
Aravind)
comes
to
the
picture,
but
the
producer
is
not
willing
to
hand
over
the
film
as
the
director
has
a
history
of
not
completing
a
single
project.
Manohara's
all
the
films
were
halted
midway.
However,
with
the
intervention
of
Suprita
(Harshika
Poonachha),
the
ex-girlfriend
of
Manohara
and
the
would
be
daughter-in-law
of
the
producer,
the
hero
gets
the
project
to
direct.
But
as
the
film
starts,
he
temporarily
loses
his
sight.
What
happens
next
is
the
interesting
part
of
the
story.

Complete
Comedy
Entertainer
Manganakaili
Manikya
is
nothing
but
a
complete
comedy
entertainer.
Well-written
lines
and
the
performance
of
the
actors
are
the
strength
of
the
movie.
Screenplay
Fails
There
are
a
lot
of
double
entendres
and
people
could
not
help,
but
burst
out
laughing.
However,
the
screenplay
is
not
tight
in
Manganakaili
Manikya.
The
first
30-minute
is
not
up
to
the
mark
even
though
the
film
begins
on
a
good
note.
In
the
later
half
too,
the
screenplay
loses
grip.
Ramesh
Aravind
At
His
Usual
Best
Ramesh
Aravind
is
at
his
usual
best.
He
breaks
the
funny
bones
of
the
audience
with
his
hilarious
dialogues
and
acting.
Performances
Harshika
Poonachha
has
a
decent
role
in
the
movie,
Ravi
Kumar
has
done
good
job
and
Rangayana
Raghu
does
his
best.
Rajesh
Ramanath's
two
songs
including
'Sada
suprabhatha'
is
good,
and
JG
Krishna's
cinematography
is
okay.
But
Nagendra
Urs'
editing
would
have
been
better.
Verdict
Manganakaili
Manikya
may
have
its
drawbacks,
but
the
film
is
nothing
but
a
fun
ride.
If
you
are
a
fan
of
comedy
movies,
then
the
film
should
not
be
missed.
