Here are things you must know before you book your tickets

• The film is the kannada remake of the Telugu hit Kick that starred Ravi Teja in the lead role.
• The Kannada rights of the film was first procured by N Kumar to make a film with Sudeep. The film did not happen and the rights fell on the lap of Manju.
• Uppi's movie is releasing in over 170 centres across Karnataka
• The movie is being touted as a perfect birthday feast for all Uppi fans
• The film is producer K Manju's 36th film
• Director Sadhu Kokila has made a few changes to the script
• Super Ranga has Upendra and Kriti Kharbanda paired for the first time.
• Plot: The film is about a man who believes in doing only things that give him a kick. Depsite idiosyncrasies he and Kriti embark upon a whirlwind romance, until one day he breaks up with her for a new 'Kick' and walks away never to return. Meanwhile, Kriti meets a police officer as her match. On a train journey, she narrates her story while he recounts how one person is playing too smart trying to evade arrest after committing heinous crimes. What happens next? Will Uppi and Kriti meet again? If yes, under what circumstances forms the crux of the story.

Review: Although the movie is a remake, Sadhu Kokila has added some masala elements to make it more suitable to the Kannada audience. There are a couple of scenes which is very 'Uppi'ish. Upendra is talented and can pull of any role with ease and this he has demonstrated that in Super Ranga. Kriti has done her job well. Comedy is the key elements and a big plus in the movie.

Verdict: Uppigintha ruchi bere illa. We think Super Ranga is better than the Hindi remake of the Telugu Kick that starred Salman Khan.

Rating: 3/5
