Jarasandha (film)

Jarasandha (Kannada: ಜರಾಸಂಧ) is an Indian Kannada film starring Duniya Vijay directed by Shashank. It is dubbed in hindi as Jaraasandha.

Krishamurthy alias Kitty (Duniya Vijay) is a gym trainer, who is happy leading life with his mother (Roopa Devi).

The movie starts off in style. Former DGP (Devaraj), who is being criticized for his controversial book 'Jarasandha'- which demands a drastic change in our judicial system - narrates a story from the book.

Critics say, Jarasandha is technically excellent. But lacks good narration and screenplay.
