Abhimanyu Kashinath's upcoming film, Soori Loves Sandhya, which also stars Apoorva as the female lead, is set to release on March 6. The trailer was recently launched by Upendra, who has nothing but praise for its content. Upendra shared his thoughts, saying, “Today, I speak with immense pride. It’s an honour to stand alongside this talented team because I’ve seen the film, and I can say it’s truly something special. I can’t help but think of Abhi’s father, Kashinath, at this moment. Had he been here to witness this, I know he would have been overjoyed. Though he’s no longer with us in person, his blessings continue to guide us." The actor-director went on to add, "The climax of this film is deeply emotional—it’s a must-watch. The final 20 minutes are nothing short of extraordinary, with both lead actors delivering some of their best work. The cinematography, direction, and every other detail are remarkable. This film deserves to be seen in every language because such films need our support and appreciation.”
Upendra specifically praised Abhimanyu’s performance, saying, “He has truly exceeded my expectations and done an exceptional job. The heroine, too, has delivered a brilliant performance and looks stunning on screen. I strongly urge the people of Karnataka to support such films. Abhi has the blessings of his father and the love of his fans, and I’m confident this film will get a wonderful response." Upendra also had words of encouragement for producer Manjunath. "I’ve known Manjunath for many years. His banner is called ‘Seven Crores,’ but I hope it soon grows to 70 crores—or even 700 crores!”
Abhimanyu expressed his gratitude, saying, “Upendra sir has been a source of encouragement for me since I was a child. I hope his blessings always stay with us.”
Apoorva added, "This moment is so special for me. I grew up watching Upendra's films, and to have his support for our film today feels like a great strength."
Producer KT Manjunath said, “This film is a result of Upendra sir’s inspiration. His support has been invaluable. This is my first film under my banner.”
Soori Loves Sandhya is written and directed by Yadav Raj. The film also stars Pratap Narayan, Pradeep Kabra, Prasanna, Kushi Achar, and others. The music is composed by SN Arunagiri, while the cinematography is handled by Srinivas.
