Paddehuli marks the debut of producer, K Manju’s son Shreyas. In addition, director Guru Deshpande is also bringing back Ravichandran and Sudharani as a pair after 25 years. The two last worked together in Manedevru, which released in 1993.

Guru Deshpande has also sketched out an interesting role for the Ravichandran. His character is meant to remind us of Chamayya Maestru (played by Ashwath) from the Vishnuvardhan-starrer Nagarahavu.

The director plans to reveal Ravichandran’s look on May 30, which is, incidentally, the actor’s birthday. As mentioned earlier by the director, Guru Deshpande is hoping to recreate the success of Premaloka with Paddehulli. 

The shoot is currently underway at Gandhibazaar. Paddehuli stars Nishvika Naidu as the female lead, and has music by Ajaneesh B Loknath, cinematography by K S Chandrashekar, and editing by KM Prakash.
