Baanaadi, Another Film for Children to Come Soon

Writer and actor Nagaraja Kote had written a story which had won the best story award and was later developed into a novel, 'Usiru'. This novel was also developed into a play and had achieved huge accolades for its content. Reeling under the successes of the book and the play, Nagaraja Kote decided to make it into a movie by writing a suitable screenplay for it, by naming it Baanaadi. Citing it to be a commercial movie, the director has asserted that they have not included any elements that would take off the artisitic feel from the film. Nagaraja Kote is actively involved in writing, theatre, acting supporting and comedy roles in movies, and also doing TV roles. 12 year old Praful will be playing the lead in the movie and veteran actor Dattanna will play his grandfather. The film has six songs and will also have a song written by popular Kannada poet G P Rajaratnam and composed by late Raju Ananthaswamy. The remaining songs will be composed by music director Karthik.
