Yogaraj Bhat, who is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film, Panchatantra, has now begun recording a song for his next film, Gaalipata 2. This multi-starrer featuring Sharan, Pawan Kumar and Rishi in the leads, has started with the recording work.

The team, including director-producer Mahesh Danannavar, lyricist Jayant Kaikini, and singer Vijay Prakash, were in Mumbai over the last two days. The recording took place at the newly-opened studio of music director Arjun Janya. They have completed the composition of five songs for Gaalipata 2, which is going to be a musical with nine tracks and six main songs.

The makers of Gaalipata 2 have finalised Sonal Monteiro and Sharmila Mandre as the female leads. The team is also planning to rope in a Chinese or Korean actor, who will be paired opposite Sharan.

The sequel to Gaalipata (2008) will start rolling sometime in March, and will be wrapped up in two schedules in Bengaluru and abroad.
