Nandini is in the captivity of Basheer and Vijay on the other side is looking for Basheer gang. At this time the police reach with a truce plan. The bloody battle turns very interesting for the front benchers.

This is the perfect kind of role for Chocó faced Prajwal Devaraj. He has improved considerably in his fourth film in dialogue delivery. He is too good in action and romance is also cake walk for him. He has the timing for comedy too. The Chaco bar chocolate is the pretty looking Andrita Ray. A very beautiful looking Andrita Ray is good in her expressions and dance. She has freaked out in a song that reminds actress Malashri's 'Nanjundi Kalyana' song Olage Seridhare Gundu€¦the song still popular. Andrita has minimum of costumes in this film because she is kidnapped and kept in the forest with Prajwal. Kannada film industry has got a diligent actress.

Bhanuprakash, Avinash, Sadhu Kokila, Komalkumar and Ravi Kale have done their roles very well. Vidya Murthy and Srisudha are apt in the mother roles.

V.Manohar has given three lovely tunes. The mixture of a song with hero and heroine singing on their way to meet is a good thought. The cinematography by Mahesh Talkad is impressive.

On the whole 'Meravanige' is a nice entertainer.

Scoring 7.5/10
