He and Kishor are brilliant in their respective roles. In the play of words between the hero and the heroine, writer Suri shines but on the whole, there is fewer sparks in the dialogues penned by him. Inthi Ninna Preethiya would have been a better film if not for the repetitive sequences".[3] A critic from [Sify.com](/source/Sify.com) wrote "Satya Hegde is sure to be in the competition for an award for his camera work. The dark and medium lighting he has used the capturing of some of the locations are like paintings on the screen".[4] ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** ["Pawan The Actor"](http://pawantheactor.com/?page_id=692).
