Database:

Here I am using Northwind database. You can download it from following link.

Download Northwind Database

Open Microsoft sql management studio and right click on the database and attach it.

Step 1: Create an ado.net entity data model using table orders and generate entity for that.

Step 2: Right clicks on the "Controllers" folder and add "PieChart" controller. Copy and paste the following code.

public class PieChartController : Controller
    {
        //
        // GET: /PieChart/
        models db = new models();
        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            var Listcountry = (from c in db.Orders
                               select new { c.ShipCountry }).Distinct().ToList();
            Order order = new Order();
           order.ListCountry = new SelectList(Listcountry, "shipcountry", "shipcountry");
            return View(order);
        }
 
        public ActionResult GetChart(string country)
        {
            List<object>chartData = new List<object>();
           chartData.Add(new object[]{
                "ShipCity", "TotalOrders"
            });
 
            var result = (from order in db.Orders.AsEnumerable()
                          where order.ShipCountry==country
                          group order by order.ShipCity into rowGroup
                          select new
                          {
                              ShipCity =rowGroup.Key,
                              TotalOrders =rowGroup.Count()
 
                         }).Distinct().ToList();
 
            foreach (var c in result)
            {
               chartData.Add(new object[]
                   {
                       c.ShipCity, c.TotalOrders
                   });
            }
             return new JsonResult
            {
               Data = new
               {
                   success = chartData,
                   message = "Success",
               },
               JsonRequestBehavior = JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet
            };
         }
      }

Step 3: Right click on the "Index" action method in the "PieChartController" and add "Index" view. Copy and paste the following code.

@model  MymvcApp.Models.Order
@{
   ViewBag.Title = "PieChart using jquery google charts in asp.net MVC";
}
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    google.load("visualization", "1", { packages: ["corechart"] });
   google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);

   
function drawChart() {
        var country = $("#ddlCountries").val();
        var dataobject = {};
       dataobject.country = country;
        var options = {
           title: country + 'City Distribution',
           is3D: true,
           pieHole: 0.5
        };
        $.ajax({
           type: "POST",
            url:"@Url.Action("GetChart", "PieChart", new { area = "" })",
           data: JSON.stringify(dataobject),
            //data: '{}',
           contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8",
           dataType: "json",
           success: function (r) {
                debugger;
                var data =google.visualization.arrayToDataTable(r.success);
                var chart = new google.visualization.PieChart($("#chart")[0]);
               chart.draw(data, options);
            },
           failure: function (r) {
               alert(r.success);
            },
           error: function (r) {
               alert(r.success);
            }
        });
    }
 
    $(function () {
        $("[id*=ddlCountries]").bind("change", function () {
           drawChart();
        });
    }); 

</script>
<body style="border: 1px solid #DED8D8; width: 900px; height: 600px; font-family: Arial;">
    <h2>Pie Chart usingjquery google charts in asp.net MVC</h2>
    @Html.DropDownList("ddlCountries", Model.ListCountry)
    <br />
    <div id="chart" style="width: 900px; height: 500px;">
    </div>
</body>
