Cast

Reception

Vinay Lokesh, a reviewer for The Times of India, gave the movie "Marakastra" a rating of 2.0/5. In his review, he describes the film's plot, which revolves around a professor named Shankar, who is a well-intentioned man advising his students to work in India for the country's benefit. The city experiences a series of high-profile murders, including those of a lawyer, a police officer, the deputy commissioner, and even Shankar's own daughters, which disrupt his otherwise normal life. Lokesh's review suggests that "Marakastra" aims to be a commercial, action-oriented drama. However, he expresses disappointment with the film, describing it as an uphill task to watch. He points out serious disconnects between the subplots in the story, which he believes contribute to the film's downfall. The action sequences are described as forced, and the songs further distract from the detached storyline.

Soundtrack

The music of the film is composed by Manju Kavi Parashar and released under A2 Music.[4]
