Plot

Arjuna is shown as a very good guy with great conscience. There is no clue about his dealing with a murder. But when the murder news opens up, Arjuna becomes uneasy, which deepens ACP Verma's doubt. The director does his job in a good manner in the first half. But the second half betrays us. The suspense eventually ends up in losing its flavor. The real reason for Arjuna's transformation could have been handled much better. Devaraj comes out with a splendid performance. Prajwal, his real life offspring, has imbibed his role to a good extent and does it commendably. Bhama comes only in few scenes in the film, but does a neat job. The film has its share of double meaning dialogues, and they do nothing to make you smile. Dynamic's Star Devaraj's stunts are just ok. Updated by: Emjay Khan
