Ramya Krishna has a very short and sweet role. Sadhu Kokila, Chikkanna, Giri comedy track is filler for relief in the film. Akilendra Mishra has done a good job as villain. Ravishanker transformed to a good cop role has controlled performance.

Ravi Basrur scoring music for the first time to Puneeth Rajakumar film has given peppy and melodious tunes. No complaints on J Swamy cinematography. The dance steps from director Harsha is worth a watch again from Puneeth Rajakumar.

Dialogues by duo Chetan Kumar and Raghu Niduvalli are quite OK. Lyrics in the songs are well written. Editing has followed the usual pattern.
