Operation Jackpot Nalli C.I.D 999 is a 1969 Indian Kannada-language spy thriller film directed and produced by Dorai–Bhagavan. It stars Rajkumar, Narasimharaju and Rekha.
The film is the third in the CID 999 franchise, created along the lines of the James Bond and James Bond-styled films, with the first two being Jedara Bale & Goa Dalli CID 999. The success of this movie led to one more sequel - Operation Diamond Racket. This was the debut movie of actress Rekha in a lead role.[1][2][3]
With the release of this movie, CID 999 became the first character based trilogy movie in India. This movie was praised for its angled lighting, clever use of shadows and well thought out decor such as the atmospheric arches in the lair - all of which added an element of noir to the movie.[4]
Plot summary
The movie starts with nuclear scientist Shekar, who has created the formula Plasma Binson, which can destroy any object on earth. This formula is eyed by the rival team and uses Shekars love towards horse racing as a bait to get him into their team. Many fluke horses start winning at Bangalore Turf Club, and Agent 999 (Prakash) is assigned to investigate this mystery. With his sidekick Baby Narasimharaju, Agent 999 works to destroy the formula itself. Whether agent 999 uses his witty skills and crack, this formula forms the crux of the movie. Rekha played a sensuous Bond girl in this movie.
