‘Dodmane Huduga’ strikes right chords with Appu fans

‘Dodmane Huduga’ was released on September 30 to a grand reception from audience. It was Puneeth Rajkumar’s 25th film which was released with great expectations. The fans had created more hype for the film, with different and unique promotions, with Biryani being sold at Rs 75, Jio sim for fans, Rajkumar Ladoo and so on.
dodmanehudga2Suri had a huge responsibility on his shoulders. His last film with Puneeth, “Anna Bond” had disappointed everyone. However, “Dodmane Huduga” does not disappoint. The film is not a classic entertainer,but a film which is made for hardcore Puneeth fans.

The film has many fight scenes. Puneeth’s dialogues and fights are the biggest highlights of the film. Ambareesh is shown in a reprising role which is close to his real life. However, there are certain scenes of Ambareesh, which become funny unintentionally, which could have been ignored.

Ravishankar, Krishna and Radhika Pandit shine in their roles. However, the remaining cast has nothing much to do. Bharathi Vishnuvardhan, Sumalatha Ambareesh and Chikanna are wasted in the film.

V Harikrishna’s music is the biggest disappointment. Except “Abhimanugale Namma Mane Devaru”, none of the songs make impact. Suri has been successful in making an entertaining mass entertainer, which will be loved by Puneeth’s fans and commercial film lovers.

The film looks like a blockbuster. The film is said to have broken the records in just three days of release. From Monday onwards, the film will enter the profit zone. Puneeth’s last few films have not been successful as expected. His last few films have been hits, but none have been blockbusters. His last blockbuster was “Hudugaru”.  “Dodmane Huduga” has all the ingredients of becoming a blockbuster. If Suri had concentrated more in the second half of the film, the film would have gone to another level.

Speaking about the film, Hemanth says, “The film is good. The decision of releasing the film in many theatres was a good decision. This is a film, which will not run for 100 days. It will earn maximum revenues in initial weeks. With big releases scheduled for next few weeks, the film should do maximum collections in its first week. The film is better than Suri-Puneeth’s “Anna Bond”. However, its not as good as their first combination “Jackie”.

Speaking about criticisms which the film received, Rajesh, manager of a popular single screen says, ” The film was always meant to please fans and not for intellectuals. It’s unfair to compare “Dodmane Huduga” with Suri’s “Kendasampige” or “Kaddipudi’. They are of different genres.”

The reaction from the audience may be different. However at box office, the producer is happy. The film has not only done great business in Karnataka, but also in USA. With many big films set to release in the next few weeks, we will have to see how “Dodmane Huduga” performs at box office in the coming days.
