Uppi-2 : Uppi’s panche Avatar

BANGALORE: When Upendra helms the camera, the audience is sure to expect a product with some distinct feature, be it in camera angles, looks, posters or costumes. In his latest film Uppi 2, the star sports a dhoti (panche) throughout. “He will be in seen in different avatars but the panche frame will remain all through. It is required for the character in the film,” says Priyanka Upendra, who has taken up the production responsibilities of the film.



With Kristina Akheeva, Parul Yadav and other well-known artistes in the cast, the first schedule of the film in Mangalore has been completed and the shoot is now going on in Mysore. “We have a few more locations to shoot at in Karnataka before we head abroad,” reveals Priyanka.


About producer C Manohar backing out of the project, she says, “Manohar couldn’t concentrate on the project and he thought it would be best to move out. Uppi’s film needed a lot of attention and time, which Manohar could not give. We mutually decided that we would work together on another project. He is also the producer of Upendra’s other film, Basavanna. So there are no hard feelings,” she says
