Only few days back i came to know about the ban on non-kannada movies.It shows only the inferiority complex of the kannadigas for not able to meetout the challenges made from the other 3 south language cinema industry.And in their own kannada land they are very much affraid of telugus&tamils domination,and in the world only in Karnataka Bangalore the people of soil are only 35%.I know lot of freinds in B'lore say they dont even speak a kannada word almost 90% in their premises.So i request all kannadigas to be bold and have confidence in their language like Tamils&Telugus. You should not compare kannada field to Tamil&Telugu as they are very very high in trade,quality and in quantity wise.
Raakshasa is a movie which can be compared to any movie in any language for its high values, fast action, tight script, excellent acting. Kudos to Shivrajkumar, Ramu and KokilaSadu!
Hi Boss, thanks for writing one positive review on Kannada film. I think you have started seeing Kannada movies recenrly for the sake of writing the review. There are many such good ones. Do watch and dont be biased, be objective in what you write.
The film "RAAKSHASA" directed by the famed kannada actor Sadhu kokila seems to be just a remake of the tamil hit Kaaka Kaaka with some additional flavour added.The director might as well have asked Gautham to direct the film and sadhu might have produced it.for a tamilian and a kannada movie buff like me this movie seemed to be a waste of time as i could predict the coming scenes.The score for the film again by the director is not even passable. THe film is totally PREDICTABLE.

I have watched both Khaka Khaka and Rakshasa and both are different movies, maybe the role of the hero is the same, but the way they have been pciturised is diff... i couldnt see the awesome role/performance of Rangayana Raghu in the tamil flick... so stop thinking the whole world is after you people..
and coming to the remake part, let me narrate one of my small experiences with a tamil,you guys have copied so many kannada movies since 1950's, recently dubbed action movies of Malashree, Sai Kumar, Upendra, why even Super hit kannada movies like Prema Loka by chandran have been dubbed... the funny part is a tamilian colleague of mine, said kannadaigas copied all the above mentioned movies...
i saw Rakshasa.it is exceptional.Hero shivrajkumar is superb.Action scenes are very good.even the villain has done a good job. It is a MUST WATCH FILM.
Its refreshing to see a review about a Kannada movie and makes it more interesting when the review is good. I'm sure it thrills Kannadigas all over the globe when India's most popular website rediff publishes reviews on Kannada movies. keep up the good work
guys, its great seein kannada film reviews on rediff... many ppl think kannada films are for auto drivers 'n coolie workers... no... just see for how long "jokefalls" a kannada movie's runnin inthe biggest multiplex in b'lore... change ur attitudes dude.. see kannada films... it'll get better as much as u support... jai kannada
