'Bhairathi Ranagal' movie review: Shivarajkumar does the heavy lifting in this character study

New Indian Express  

Before we get into the journey of the titular character in Bhairathi Ranagal, it is important to trace his rise, which was brought about through Mufti. Mufti’s end, where Bhairathi is seen kept under CBI’s custody, paved the way for a prequel. While the narration of Mufti shifts between Gana and Bhairathi’s characters, the prequel offers a more character-focused narrative, focusing on Bhairathi’s humble beginnings in Ronapura, a village suffering from dearth of basic amenities. His time behind bars shapes his resolve, turning him into a man committed to bringing justice to his village, fighting for Ronapura and its people’s right to live with dignity.
