9 reviews out of 10 here are fake 10 on 10!!
Kking199028 October 2023
Kudos to the team of KC for putting in a brilliant effort to ensure that the movie directly enters the top list of crappy kannada movies of all time!! I think the producer of this movie wanted to promote smoking and drinking. So he hired Vijaya Raghavendra, gave him bundles of stuff and asked him to consume it while the crew shot some candid videos of him. Bad screenplay, poor direction, terrible dialogues, terrible dialogues, poor music and the list continues!

A special shout out to the leading lady, you have done a good job by not acting in the movie!! Keep up the good work until you run out of opportunities!!!

I deserve a state award for watching this movie!!!

"Compelling Storytelling Overshadowed by Excessive Smoking Portrayal: 'Kadda Chitra' Review - 4 Stars"
deevige19 November 2023
**Movie Review: "Kadda Chitra"**

**Rating: 4 Stars**

"Kadda Chitra" presents a compelling narrative highlighted by commendable performances, particularly by Vijay Raghavendra and the heroine. The child artist's natural acting adds depth to the storytelling, resonating authentically with the audience.

However, a notable aspect that somewhat detracts from the overall experience is the frequent and excessive portrayal of smoking, predominantly by the protagonist, Vijay Raghavendra. This recurring depiction, present in about 90% of the movie, and the consistent presence of cigarettes with supporting characters like the book publisher, can be distracting and off-putting.

Although the storyline holds promise and captivates viewers, the excessive focus on the protagonist's smoking habits, which account for around 90% of his on-screen time, raises questions about the director's intentions. It leaves audiences pondering whether this portrayal is unintentional or if it serves as an indirect promotion for tobacco products, inadvertently overshadowing the movie's core message.

Despite this flaw, "Kadda Chitra" shines through its narrative brilliance, but the persistent focus on smoking habits significantly detracts from the overall cinematic experience, leaving audiences contemplating the director's underlying motives behind such a prevalent depiction of smoking.

Overall, "Kadda Chitra" is a compelling film with remarkable performances and a captivating story, yet the excessive portrayal of smoking habits tends to overshadow its otherwise promising narrative.

Music is the soul of the cinema
Jalyla2739 September 2023
Music is the soul of the cinema. Camera work is amazing. Great locations. Actors look beautiful as well. Everyone looks rich and classy. Costumes look nice. Frames are rich. Story is interesting and unique. Some places in the screenplay could have been better. Director seems to be a creative guy who loves experimenting. He has done a great job with his first film. #AwesomeStory #Blockbuster #Wellmade #Unbelievable Crazy! Hadn't watched a Kannada film like this in a super long time. Brilliant effort. Director seems to be a great technician. Has great technical sense. Although, there are some confusing moments, the movie brings out a unique story line.

Vijay Raghvendra
Gajbaahu89959 September 2023
The main protagonist played by Vijay Raghvendra has done justice to the role. A decent storyline with a nice ending, perhaps something which we are not very used to. The story moves smoothly, however I felt that there are one too many songs in the first half. The second half is where the movie picks up traction and plot becomes interesting. The contrasting role switch made by both Vijay Raghvendra and Namratha(playing his wife) is worth mentioning. The guy playing the villain has acted brilliantly to stand tall with an experienced stawart like Vijay. All in all, a paisa vasool movie and a pleasant surprise for the KFI. Don't miss out.

Great visuals
Kripasagar28139 September 2023
Great visuals. Locations are a treat to the eyes. Amazing amazing bgm and songs. Movie overall could have been better. But awesome effort from the team. Crazy screenplay. Great work by a debut director. Haven't seen the heroine much. But wow... she's stunning!! Overall amazing movie. BGM is awesome. Great camera work. Vijay sir in a very different avatar. Full rugged and rough feels, unusual from his other movies. His acting is great and shows why he is one of the top actors in the KFI. All supporting actors did very well. Shout out to the cinematographer and the Music producer. Modela Malleya song is in my favourites.

Story is interesting
leqsvcxi9 September 2023
Story is interesting. But presentation could have been better. Director has made a comeback film for Viiay Raghavendra. He looks amazing. Brilliant cinematography, amazing BGM, Vijay Anna look and feels next level. I will surely watch it again. Loved the story line. Very interesting plot and the ending was great. I hope more story based movies come to sandalwood. Director definitely doesn't look like a debutant, the maturity, essence, passion is seen in every frame and aspect. The negative roles played by three villains and their fights are shown very much natural, my favourite is the intensity in Vijay Raghavendra acting!

Great bgm
Abdul-Mu-izz66219 September 2023
I have seen films which are horrible. This is definitely NOT one among them. Film is a great effort done by the director. He seems to have an interesting thought process. Lot of experimentation and risk taken. Must appreciate his courage. May be I'd watch more of his films. Overal it was quite entertaining. Some areas give a real feel good feeling. It's intense. Love story could have been more I guess. Music is superb. Shots are superb. Movie is brilliantly made. Little confusing screenplay. But overall a great effort. BGM is chindi!! Hero and heroine look stunning. Awesome performances. Decent film for a first timer.

Each song is extremely soulful
Sumati36619 September 2023
I'm a music lover. So I loved the music. Each song is extremely soulful. But back to back songs in the first half. Why why..? Movie picks up well during the second half. Vijay Raghavendra looks amazing. Camera shots is great. Story can confuse people...but great effort. Villain's performance is brilliant. Heroine looks BEAUTIFUL! She must do more films. What a movie! Okay honestly, i think it's a great effort made by the director, although, there are some places you'd be like...whatever... but visuals are great, BGM is brilliant, actors look stunning. Vijay Raghavendra looks hot. After a long time witnessing classy costumes. Rich film.

Hats off to the director
Kumudesh69929 September 2023
Hats off to the director. Working in his debut movie with a star like Vijay Raghvendra, did not seem like inexperienced. Good pace in movie and Namratha as Aditi looked beautiful and very nice pair. The villains voice is ... Phew!!! Vijay Raghavendra and Namratha make a sweet onscreen pair. Costumes look great. Story is interesting. Can do better. Nice work by director. En songs guru!! Super visuals and music. Vijay Raghavendra, Namratha and the villain are among my favourite performers.director has made a great effort. Quality of the film reflects his work. Movie is brilliantly made. Little confusing screenplay.
