Unlock Raghava

Plot: Unlock Raghava is based on a treasure box which will be found by a team of archaeologists in Kotenadu.

Review: The story revolves around Raghava (Milind), a carefree young man who has the uncanny ability to open any lock without the use of duplicate keys. A team from the Archaeological Department led by Jagapathi (Avinash) and his daughter Janaki (Rachael David) arrives in his Kotenadu village in search of treasure.

Raghav and Janaki who grew up together as childhood friends lived separately with their families, as some circumstances made them apart. But they encounter each other again when Janaki visits the village of Ragahava searching for the rare treasure which rekindles their romance. Their love is put to the real test when a treasure hunt takes the centerstage. At the same time, Raghava faces a challenge to unlock the box which could change his life.

The film is a comedy entertainer that keeps the audience hooked. While the storyline may seem simple from the outset, director Deepak Madhuvanhalli has cleverly woven several entertaining elements intricately that make the film enjoyable. Milind shines as the lead actor in his debut film and looks promising with his action, dance, and acting. Rachael David has done a great job as an archaeologist and Sadhu Kokila’s character provides comic relief amidst all the chaos. Shobharaj, who plays a villain role, with two shades strikes the right chord. Overall, the film is a fun watch for people of all age groups.
