Hare Rama Hare Krishna

Anand, an unemployed and desperate man, pays a bribe to an officer for a job. But Anand's life changes when the officer fails to keep his promise and refuses to return his money.

Directed by C. V. Ashok Kumar, Hare Rama Hare Krishna leans on a strong ensemble — Sriimurali, Pooja Gandhi, Roopashree — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2011.
