Mayor Muthanna (1969) watch online

Mayor Muthanna is a 1969 Indian Kannada-language film directed by Siddalingaiah in his directorial debut. The film stars Dr. Rajkumar and Bharathi. The film was Dwarkish's first independent production venture who had earlier co-produced the 1966 movie Mamatheya Bandhana with two other people under the Thunga Pictures banner. The sub-plot of the film regarding the salvaging of the sub-standard grain was inspired by the 1886 novel The Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy. However, apart from this small episode, neither any plot point nor any sequence was borrowed from that novel. The movie was remade in Telugu in 1974 as Chairman Chalamayya starring Chalam.
