Mari Kannu Hori Myage also spelled as Maari Kannu Hori Myaage (transl. Maari's eyes are on the Bull) is a 1998 Indian Kannada-language comedy film starring Jaggesh, Archana, Utthara and Dheerendra Gopal.[1] The film edited by T. Shashikumar has soundtrack scored by Rajesh Ramanath and cinematography handled by Sundarnath Suvarna.[2][3] The film upon release met with positive reception.

The film written and directed by Kumar was named after a famous track from the Kannada film A released in the same year. The movie humorously deals with the troubles of a man from a middle-class family who becomes the victim of a slight misunderstanding.

Reception[edit | edit source]

Srikanth Srinivasa of Deccan Herald felt the audience would fail to understand what director Kumar "is trying to convey" with this film. He added, "Kumar, in trying to be different, has neither made good use of the story at his disposal nor has he capitalised on Jaggesh's screen presence, leaving the audience totally at sea." About the acting performances, he wrote, ""Jaggesh is as usual in his element... Uttara has nothing much to do. Dhirendra Gopal is wasted. The dialogues are loud, vulgar and unparliamentary. Papamma is a delight, though her dialogues are atrocious."[5]
