Producer-turned-director KR Muralikrishna's directorial Gara is interesting for a lot of reasons. The film stars news anchor and Bigg Boss contestant-turned-actor Rehman in the lead. And now, we hear that Bollywood comedian Johnny Lever will be making his Kannada debut with this film.

The multitalented Sadhu Kokila is thrilled to share screen space with Johnny Lever, as the former had always considered the Bollywood actor as his mentor. At a recent press meet, Sadhu Kokila revealed that learnt his acting skills, especially comedy mainly by watching Johnny Lever.  

Another Bollywood connection to Gara will be Saroj Khan’s choreography for a song. The film, said to be based on an one-line inspiration from one of RK Narayan’s novels, has music by Sagar Gururaj.
