The major attraction of Nagarahavu is the presence of late Vishnuvardhan, who has been brought back to life on screen using high-end graphics. This is possibly the biggest experiment in visual effects carried out in India and the success of Vishnu's character would remain a landmark in the film industry.
Interestingly, this is the third movie with the title Nagarahavu that is hitting screens in Sandalwood. The first movie was a 1972 classic, directed by late Puttana Kanagal starring Vishnuvardhan. It had given a major break to the actor. In 2002, Upendra borrowed the name for his Kannada remake of Bollywood's "Baazigar."

Coming to the latest film, Diganth is the male lead in Nagarahavu, which also has Saikumar, Ravi Shankar, Sadhu Kokila, Mukul Dev, Ravi Kale and others in the cast. Gurukiran has scored music and a few of his tracks have turned out to be big hits. Venu has handled cinematography, while Jony Harsha has edited the Kannada film.
The movie has been made with a budget of Rs 40 crore and the makers have spent Rs 15 crore alone for a nine-minute portion of Vishnuvardhan. The movie has recovered a major part of the money through the sale of theatrical rights and satellite rights from three languages.
Story:
The story of Nagarahavu celebrates the triumph of good over evil. The Gods would lose their power when there is an eclipse. Hence, they store all their power in Shakti Kavacha and handover it to a family, which protects it till Shivayya (Saikumar) loses it at some point. Now, his daughter takes the responsibility of winning it over. What happens next could be seen on-screen.
The trailer and teaser have generated a lot of curiosity around the movie and the audience are curious to know whether the movie would live up to their expectations. Below, find what the viewers say about the flick:
