Debutant Daththu has made a lengthy screenplay and confuses in the screenplay. He has not made a thorough home work and not fed it properly to the audience. In addition to it the UFO screening at Abhinay theatre, Bangalore makes the viewing of the film very difficult. Majority of portions shot by eminent cameraman A.C.Mahendran looks very pale.
Machcha alias Maheshchandra (Jeevan newcomer) losing his property for the sake of police officer job is hit badly in luck. He comes to city where he finds the insult faced by his friend that changes his outlook. He has the hands of steel and can beat up anyone black and blue. Such a person is what JK (Rajan P Dev) wants to keep. In the first meeting Machcha ask for a major share and that is none other than the corrupt police officer who has cheated him long back. The journey of Machcha goes on untouched for a long time but he is framed in a major case. Now the enemy of JK that is Subramani wants to return back to the camp. The only demand he makes is obviously the position of Machcha. As the reels runs tediously Machcha an educated youngster returning back from prison transform to lead a life with Priya.
There is nothing much interesting in the content but the screenplay that is long and boring could have been pruned to make it interesting.
Jeevan the six feet three inches tall actor has to learn a lot. Firstly his looks are not proper. In three stages of this film he does not show any change or improvement. Saritha Jain has the height but she has very little chances of making it big. Half a dozen villains are painful to watch.
Music and cinematography are a bane to this film. Worth missing!
