P2 Productions `Jeeva' is having a very well written screenplay to make it stimulating to the masses. The misplacement of records in the hospital although an age old concept is used in this film `Jeeva' and there are very impressive situations featuring Prajwal Devaraj. For the first time Prajwal shoulders a very heavy load on his shoulders in his career and this could be said as his career best performance too.
Although the film joggles at places it is jaunty in most of the scenes for the thrill lovers. Yet the director in his debut Prabhu Srinivas could have avoided a song (Shraddha Sharma item dance) and some college scenes to make it tight in his screenplay.
Jeeva (Prajwal) is ready to give his life for Jayanthi (Ruthwa). This is especially after a bashing in the college the irritated Jayanthi lashes in words to Jeeva. `You don't become a good student but you become a good human being' she yells at him and that changes the attitude of Jeeva. Jeeva is the son of a minister and Jayanthi is the daughter of an insurance agent obviously has the barricade of rich and poor plus and upper and lower caste. For the transformation of his son Jeeva the Minister (played by Chandrasekhar) is ready to over look his position. A sudden development changes the whole cozy atmosphere. Jeeva takes an extremely opposite decision on his engagement day shocks everyone. For this the glaring mistake of a doctor is responsible. Jeeva is under the impression that he is having a few days left out in life as he is suffering from the brain tumor. But the fact is that there is another patient of the same name and this exchange of records has put Jeeva to take such drastic decision. He leaves the company of his friends, quarrel with his father and remains isolate. But the twists are not yet over. Jeeva comes to know about this fact and realizing the costly mistake the doctor takes responsibility to reshape the life of Jeeva.
Prajwal shines in emotions, romance, action and dance. He has good contents from this film. He is very circumspect and delivers his career best performance. Ruthwa looks good in some angles but she has miles to travel. Rangayana Raghu, Chandrasekhar and Gurudut have given good support.
There are three songs scored by eminent music director Gurukiran that are worth hearing again. Beku Beku Nange Neene Beku., Summane Yaake Bandhe Minchanthe Nanna Mundhe..and Seledhe Heegeke Nee Nanna.are impressive tunes and sung well. Sabha Kumar getting good name from `Psycho' Kannada film has once again given a splendid job in his camera.
Scoring 7/10
