By looking at the title itself, probably everybody could
guess the story of the film. If this was released about
ten years back this would have been a super hit movie.
Thavarige Baa Thanagi is all about a sentimental relationship
between a brother Shivanna(Shivrajkumar) and a sister Lakshmi(Radhika)
who become orphan after their mother falls from ladder and
dies. Shivanna takes good care of his sister. The story
takes a turn when Lakshmi wants to marry Akash(Adarash).
After marriage Lakshmi goes to her in-law's house with the
hope of leading a happy marriage life. But there she becomes
an unwanted thing and her mother-in-law, sister-in-law and
brother-in-law starts to torture her. They are upset that
Akash did not marry the girl they had chosen for him. They
also made Akash's mind to believe that his wife is unfaithful
to him. Akash also starts harassing his wife. In the meantime
Shivanna marries Gouri (Anu Prabhakar). But they keeps worrying
about Lakshmi. Gouri is killed by a rowdy. When Shivanna
was in that tension a pregnant Lakshni's in-laws torture
her very badly and she dies after delivering a child. Later
when Shivanna comes to know the incident brings the baby
back home.
Shirarajkumar after quite some time appearing in a different
role and managed to make people weep. Too many dramatic
scenes in the film tortures the audience a lot. Ladies sentiment
film forces to use hankies. Music by Hamsalekha is good.
Performance of Hema Choudhary, Sarika Raje and Avinash in
negative role is good.
Good job ! Most so-called Indian movie sites totally ignore Kananda films (See the once-in-a blue-moon article in Rediff). This is badly needed. Hope you expand the content. All the best.
