The director has ended the film with the information of giving a sequel later. Well, is it a treat or a headache to the fans?
The weak side of the society is always experimented by the Kannada film industry, and Bettanagere is one such attempt. Director Madhu Gowda has touched upon the real life story of Bettanagere rowdies Seenu and Shankar. Since he is a relative of these rowdies, it is apparent that he mainly concentrates on their goodness. 

Plot

The plot centres on the two brothers and how they turned evil. 

Analysis:

The sentiments and the oft-seen rowdies of Kannada gangster films are prevalent in this flick too. Besides the predictable elements, there is a flashback that tells the lives of the Bettanagere rowdies, who terrorised Northern Bengaluru from 2002 to 2012. . The director earnestly tries to show the ups and downs of the rowdies in this film.
