Not
very
often
would
you
get
to
see
a
terrific
multi-starrer
movie
in
the
Sandalwood
industry,
but
when
you
do
get
one,
it
would
call
for
some
terrific
celebrations.
This
coming
together
of
two
heroes
is
indeed
a
feast
for
the
fans
who
are
inclined
towards
mass
and
action
movies.
If
one
hero
is
the
recent
sensation
of
a
blockbuster
action
movie,
then
the
other
veteran
is
the
synonym
of
the
said
genre.
Sandalwood
King
Shivarajkumar
and
Roaring
Star
Sriimurali
have
come
together
in
an
intense,
bold
and
raw
movie,
Mufti.
The
trailer
cut
had
been
extremely
impressive
and
one
could
draw
close
reference
of
shots
with
Ugramm.
Mufti
has
one
of
the
widest
releases
for
a
Kannada
movie,
as
the
flick
is
bracing
400+
theatres
across
the
state.
So,
has
the
movie
won
over
the
audience?
Is
it
a
winner
at
the
box
office?

Story
The
movie
starts
off
with
Gana
(Sriimurali)
who
heads
to
Ronapura
as
a
saviour
and
happens
to
meet
Bhairava
Ranagallu
(Shivarajkumar),
the
dreaded
don
of
the
region.
He
joins
the
team
of
Ranagallu
as
an
aide
and
assist
him
in
his
gangster
life
which
is
seen
as
a
Robinhood
character.
Ranagallu
is
a
do-gooder
to
the
people
but
an
offender
in
the
eyes
of
law.
Who
and
what
is
the
motto
of
Gana?
Will
Ranagallu
be
taken
into
the
custody
of
law?
A
lot
more
proceedings
unfold
on
screen
which
is
better
to
be
experienced
than
be
read.

Catchy

DOWNSIDE
Slow
narrative
Comedy
track
Technical
Department
Debutant
director
Narthan
has
proved
his
mark
in
his
very
first
outing.
The
sketch
of
lead
characterizations,
hero
elevation
sequences,
dialogues
and
the
entire
making
has
been
treated
with
utmost
care
and
Narthan
commands
centum
for
his
dedication
and
movie
treatment.
He
is
sure
to
be
the
next
big
thing
in
Sandalwood.
Ravi
Barsur
is
an
asset
to
the
movie.
The
background
music
sends
both
the
actors
fans
into
tizzy
and
sets
up
an
electrifying
atmosphere
in
theatres.
Naveen
Kumar's
cinematography
work
reminds
us
of
Ugramm
memories
and
Harish
Komme's
slick
editing
compliments
the
former's
work.
Performances
Sriimurali
is
continuing
his
momentum
of
choosing
and
delivering
better
quality
movies.
He
is
powerful,
masculine
and
effective.
Be
it
his
expressions
or
screen
presence,
he
has
nailed
it.
Shanvi
and
Chaya
Singh
are
adequate.
Devaraj
and
Prakash
Belawadi
have
given
their
usual
best.
The
highlight
of
the
movie,
along
with
Sriimurali
is
Karunada
Chakravarthi
Shivarajkumar.
Shivanna
is
energetic,
intense
and
steals
the
show.
He
elevates
the
movie
with
his
power-packed
performance.
Arguably,
Shivanna's
introduction
is
one
of
the
best
hero
introduction
scenes
of
late.
Verdict
The
weekend
is
here
and
you
need
to
be
pampered.
Grab
your
tickets
and
watch
Mufti
to
experience
a
good
movie.
