Here is a multi star cast Kannada cinema 'Kalla Malla Sulla' (earlier it was Happy and Happy Husbands as titles) a remake of Hindi film 'No Entry' that was inspired from Tamil film 'Charlie Chaplin' - that is breezy, cozy and engaging as a fun filled film. That is mainly because of the performances of leading stars - V Ravichandran, Ramesh Aravind, Vijay Raghavendra, Ragini, Yajna Shetty - the newcomer Rushika Singh, good comedy from the supporting cast add up with lovely scenic beauty.
It seems producer K Manju with four films on hand gets good fund flowing from this film in the box office. A right pick of artists by Udayaprakash director of the film deserves kudos! The 2005 'No Entry' Hindi film is retained as it is with some nativity changes.
Two songs in this film - Thuppa Beku Thuppa....Raginig is at her dancing best and Rushika Singh and Vijaya Raghavendra song on the beach side Kannale....is mesmerizing to the eyes. The boldness of Rushika Singh keeps her busy in filmdom.
Ramesh (Ramesh Aravind) heading the newspaper in one of his visits with photographer Raghu (Vijaya Raghavendra) catch hold of Ravi (V.Ravichandran) and shows it to his suspicious wife Pooja (Monica). Already suspicious wife creates further trouble and that makes Ravi to take revenge.
The tremor starts in the family of Ramesh when he is caught with Kushi (Ragini) and that is the trick of Ravi to give back from the same coin. On the other hand Raghu falls in love with psychiatry student Sanjana. Ramesh and Raghu both look at Kushi create troubles in their life. They go in search of Kushi who is prepared to seduce on a payment of Rs.2 lakhs.
The fun for the audience and piquant situation for the characters interspersed with songs is a treat to watch.
The screen stealers in order are Vijaya Raghavendra, Ramesh Aravind, V Ravichandran, Ragini, Rushika and Yajna Shetty. All of them are bubbly and lively.
Vijaya Raghavendra younger of three big stars in fact outshines the two big stars. Ragini and Rushika songs will be a treat for the front benchers.
Elliruve kushbu.....is also well tuned classical background song....the travel song for Ramesh Aravind and Vijaya Raghavendra. The opening song for crazy star V Ravichandran is also very attractive. Alex Paul wins in his first Kannada film.
GSV Seetharam old horse in the cinematography department has given a nice visual attraction.
This is an engaging time pass cinema.
Score - 7.5/10
