Second time's the charm for Devi Prasad Shetty!
chand-suhas9 April 2024
ACP Lakhsmi (Bhavana) is on the recent burglary case involving serial murders. Newly joined ASI Wilson (Vijay Raghavendra) is reporting at the same station as ACP Lakshmi. He has a doctor girlfriend whose brother is opposing their marriage and Wilson is also yet to pay the bribe for his posting which he got through influence. There is also a migrant Panipuri worker struggling to collect enough money for his son's treatment. Hot-headed Wilson messes with a local goon who already has a beef with ACP Lakshmi. How all these people's lives get impacted due to the individuals' actions forms rest of the story.

Devi Prasad Shetty has better command on the screenplay this time and do not repeat the mistakes he committed with Seetharam Benoy. He has been gifted with the talented cast which is almost same as his first film and the new additions being Bhavana and Rangayana Raghu. With the cast chipping in commendable performances, Devi Prasad Shetty ensures to narrate a gripping thriller which has a fast paced narrative. The characterization of the principal characters stand out and plays an important role in the narrative. The blemishes are few and the pre-climax fight could've been executed better. Apart from that, Case of Kondana makes up a for a good watch and the new director delivers in his 2nd venture.

Worst movie,immatured story and direction. Significant amount is hindi is used

. Director assume that everyone knows hindi in karnataka.

He should understand hindi is not our national and there is no national language in India. And not everyone knows hindi. States are formed based on language check for States Reorganization Act 1956.

Director haiving mind set , all Pani puri selling person's are from hindi speaking states or hindi speaking people ,he should understand there are many kannada people also selling Pani puri they also facing problems like how other state people are, he could have considered them. And he had option to voice dub hindi to kannada. I wonder why hindi is used more in this film.

More over many illogical incidents in movie.

Direction should get matured on above.

Best thriller movie
chiutresa6 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Why was this film declared not a success? Why the viewers don't give trust to those who have given their best acting. The story writer and director created a pretty good storyline. This film really impressed me and I didn't want to stop watching it because the storyline made me feel suspense. Never stop working for the writer and director. You have made quite a good film, but viewers don't realize that your film is worth enjoying. Keep fighting and produce the best films. I think the main actor has given his best acting and many of the films he has appeared in have impressed me. Several times watching films starring Vijay Raghavendra impressed me. Keep working, keep giving your best to the world of cinema.

Finest thriller of recent times
akkireddybtech3 April 2024
Superb thriller movie with best performances from hero and shows lot of variations.

This is classing example which shows screeplay is the key success and not the graphics or fights or item songs.

Another gem from kannada film industry..

Hats off to director and BGM is super.

Finest Thriller 🔥
stranger-0168529 March 2024
Heard good reviews about the film but regret for missing in theatres one of the recent best thriller....there is no suspense but still managed to bring you for seat edge....can easily termed as finest thriller.... Films starts with mid phase then slowly it picks up after 40 mins for the night to start it's then one night story.... traveling in 4 tracks is really keeps you engaged ..some main character will hunt you even after watching the film...how one night changed everyone's life....the subject doesn't focus on regular hero and villian something new is tired....and can easily termed as finest thriller....

A Real Exciting Thriller ,Must watch most underrated
vipinshine13 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is one that I watched on a train journey, spurred by doubt after seeing its low rating on IMDb. Despite my initial skepticism that Prime Videos wouldn't offer such a mediocre film, it turned out to be an unexpectedly gripping crime thriller experience. The unpredictable plot and excellent screenplay make it stand out. It's a captivating film that encompasses all the elements of a thriller. The characters Raju, his wife, and their ailing child evoke heartfelt emotions, bringing tears to our eyes. The film manages to maintain integrity to reality while delivering justice. It's an incredibly underrated gem, with superb direction, camerawork, and stellar performances by the cast, making it a must-watch.
