Kodagana Koli Nungittu: Review

If you are an ardent fan of Jaggesh then Kodagana is your film. Known for his comical facial expressions and dialogue delivery, Jaggesh has his audience in splits right through.

A remake of Telugu movie Malleshwari, Kodagana, though, is sadly laden with cheap and vulgar comedy. But kudos to Jaggesh for carrying such a trash with aplomb.

Kodagana concerns the trials and tribulations of Bachelor Baalu (Jaggesh) to get married. His expeditions to find a girl often ends up in disaster with the marriage broker bearing the brunt for the mismatch.

Though mocked and teased by his kin and colleagues cupid strikes Baalu in the form of Lakshmi (Pooja Gandhi) whom he happens to meet accidently. What follows is a hilarious adventure of Baalu wooing Lakshmi.

Though Jaggesh sustains interest with his antics, the movie, however, is cliched and time-worn.

Sharan and Sadu Kokila team-up well with Jaggesh to keep the laugh-o-meter running. Pooja Gandhi too sustains your interest. Songs are so so...

 

Had the comedy been tasteful it would have been one of the delightful outings with family.
