The movie starts with Dr. Rajkumar and Parvathamma

Rajkumar blessing Shivarajkumar (as Madesha), explaining value of birth, prayers of
baby and that of parents for birth. The movie takes place almost 3 years after the
incidents from the first movie.
A group of police officers capture and torture Madesha's accomplices to reveal his
current location. The police department comes to a conclusion that he has moved to
Dubai. Upon release they meet Bhubaiyya and verbally abuse Madesha for his betrayal.
The story shifts to Mumbai where Madesha works as a servant in the house of Vidya
and her father. He changes his name to Mahadeva so as to forget his past. Vidya's
marriage is fixed with an astrologer from Karnataka who seems to vaguely recognise
Madesha. This causes him to remember the events which caused him to leave his
native.
Following his mother's death Madesha continues to live the life of a goon. He has a
change of mind after getting humiliated by a doctor and mocked by his friends. Knowing
that once entering into the crime world will not give a second chance in life, he leaves
the place without informing anyone.
Madesha decides to leave Mumbai as he is troubled by the presence of Vidya's fiance.
His fellow mates in Mumbai kill a gangster who had destroyed their lives and secretly
moves to a coastal region from where they plan to go to Dubai. Madesha who spots
them at the beach joins them. But before leaving the coast, they are cornered by
Karnataka police officers who arrest Madesha and take him to Karnataka. While taking
him to court Madesha finds that Bhubaiyya has been killed in an accident. This shatters
him. While at the court, he sees several people awaiting his death. He is puzzled and
equally heartbroken.
Vidya who recognises her true love for Madesha calls off her wedding despite the
warning from her fiance that Madesha will die in six months and moves to Karnataka to
save him. She meets an advocate and with her help they prove the innocence of
Madesha. Once released from the prison, Madesha assembles his former gang and
resumes his criminal activities. After escaping an attempt on his life, he meets an old
man who has a clear explanation regarding Madesha's earlier predicament.
When Madesha left Bangalore, the mafia decides to meet a new gangster who will
allow them to evacuate people, take their lands, introduce drugs etc. something which
Madesha was against. Appanna who aspires to be the next Jogi(the title given to
Madesha) volunteers to help them. He spreads terror and kills innocent people by
claiming to be on behalf of Jogi thereby making Madesha a scapegoat. Sensing danger
the old man goes in search of Madesha and eventually finds him in Mumbai. With the
help of his friend who is the commissioner of police the old man manages to bring back
Jogi. Bhubaiyya was killed by Appanna.
These revelations startle Madesha who sets out to be that gangster who helps people.
He murders those mafia leaders who framed him and goes in search of Appanna. He
solves the problems of people thereby gaining their support. He gets a new title
of Jogayya (Ayya is a term of respect). Having enough of the gang wars, the Chief
minister of Karnataka asks the police officials to prepare a list and encounter the goons.
Appanna's mother seeks the help of Jogi to save her son. In spite of having a burning
desire to kill Appanna for destroying his life, Jogi decides to help the mother. However
Appanna is killed by the police. Jogi murders the criminal brothers of Naidu using a
police gun who backs the government. An enraged Naidu withdraws his support given
to the government resulting in the party losing majority and conduction of elections. Jogi
decides to stand as a candidate. He is met by Vidya's father who reveals about her love
for him. He goes in search of Vidya only to betrayed and brutally hacked by his Mumbai
mates who had recently visited him.
He manages to survive due to his love for Vidya. Those who hacked Jogi are murdered
by his friends. He sees the people who gathered around to see him. It is here revealed
that the idea of murdering Naidu's brothers and the mafia leaders were given by the
common men who were inspired by Jogi's good deeds. Jogi reconsider his decision to
contest in election and reunites with Vidya. The people inspired by Jogi's speech
swears to elect only those candidates who are eligible and capable.

Release[edit]
Due to the huge success of the film Jogi in 2005, there has been a tremendous interest
generated for Jogayya in 2011.[12][13] Although the film was scheduled to be released on
19 August, tickets of first three days were issued one week in advance. [14] Within a few
hours after initiating booking, all 3 days' tickets were sold out in the BKT region
(Bengaluru, Kolar and Tumkur) of Karnataka. Black tickets being sold at exorbitant rates
of up to ₹3,000 per ticket was reported.[15][16] The movie has started seeing empty halls
since the eighth week and has subsequently been replaced.
Critical reception[edit]
The Times of India rated 3.3 out of 5 and stating about "Shivarajkumar the hero, walks
away with equal honours in the romantic sequences too, lighting up dull sequences in
the movie. While Sumit Kaur has done justice to his role, Payana Ravishankar proves
lively with dialogue delivery and body language. Pooja Gandhi impresses all in her role
as a lawyer".[17]
