Mugila Chumbana (transl. Kiss of clouds) is a 2013 Indian Kannada-language romantic drama film directed by B Shankar. The film was also produced and co-written by Raghuveer, who also stars in the film alongside Shravanthi and Shakuntala.

Harish, who returned from America after pursuing his MBA, manages his father's garment factory. He falls in love with Sowmya after chancing upon her photograph only to realise that she had died. Sangeetha, who has to deal with familial pressure to get married, falls in one-sided love with Harish after he helps her out. Although Harish rejects Sangeetha's love initially, he eventually accepts her love.

Release and reception

[edit | edit source]

The film was released after much delay to negative reviews and was a box office failure.[3] The direction, story, and cinematography were criticised while the music was called the film's saving grace.[4] This was Raghuveer's last film before his untimely death.[5]

A critic from Deccan Herald wrote that "Mugila Chumbana remains as elusive as the first kiss between the rains and a parched earth during droughty summers".[1] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "Except for music by Vijayanand, there is nothing positive in the movie. But unnecessary song sequences placed at wrong times not only irritates you, but also disrupts the flow of the story".[6]
