Stars shine down on Rohit’s Buckkaasuura

RJ-turned-actor Rohit is getting support from many Kannada stars for his upcoming film Buckkaasuura, which is the first venture to be made under his home banner.

While the makers of the film, directed by Navaneeth of Karva fame, managed to get none other than Ravichandran to play a negative role, they've also managed to pull off another coup. The film will have Yash lending his voice to promote the trailer, which will be released by Sriimurali today.

“This is the first time an actor of his stature is giving a voice-over for a trailer,” says Rohit, adding, “As a radio jockey, I used to interview all these stars. Today, they are coming forward to support my film, and it just shows an admirable humility.”

Rohit adds, “I wanted Yash to be a part of my film in some manner, because I really admire the hardwork he puts into his films. He has always been supportive of my project, right from the beginning. In fact, he helped me get the satellite rights for the film. He told me that we can count on his continued support, provided we do a good job. He has watched the first copy and has appreciated our efforts. He has told me to alert him of the film’s release, and that he is willing to talk a few words about Buckkaasuura during that time.”
