Cast
Production
This is Prabhu Deva's brother Prasad's first Kannada film. Model Rekha Vedavyas plays an NRI student in the film. She received the role after one of the producers, Jayashri Devi, saw her photographs.
Soundtrack
The music of the film was composed by Gurukiran. The soundtrack was well received upon release and Gurukiran won the Filmfare Award for Best Music Director for the year 2001. The lyric "Jinke Mari" from "Pori Tapori" earned Rekha Vedavyas the name Jinke Mari Rekha.
Reception
A critic from Chitraloka.com wrote that "No fights, not much of melodrama (exception to first half) a bunch of friends looking after the comedy department and Gurukiran to make you crazy and of course handling the minute elements effectively is what draws you to this film". A critic from indiainfo rated the film three out of five and wrote that "Though Chitra has a serious social message, it is packed with good humour & acting by co-stars. Dinesh Babu's story telling with humour is there in this movie too. Hence it is a well-balanced movie".
