We had earlier reported that Dheeren Rajkumar's debut film, which was earlier titled Daari Tappida Maga will undergo a title change as per the request of legendary actor Dr Rajkumar's fans, who felt offended as the film is named after the 1975 blockbuster of their idol. It has been announced now that the film, directed by Anil Kumar and bankrolled by Jayanna Combines has been re-titled as Shiva 143. 

The shooting of the film, which has Manivitha Kamath as the female lead, is almost complete with just one song remaining. 

The film was recently in the news for Dheeren's six-pack look in a scene. The team is now looking to release the film by end of this year or by next January.
