The audio of much expected Kannada film 'Chickmagalura Chickmallige' was released in a crowded gathering on last Saturday by Dr.Jayamala the KFCC President and Treasurer of KFCC Sa.Ra.Govindu. 'Chickmagalura Chickmallige' title derived from music maestro Ilayaraja's Kannada scoring and singing for the film 'Shiva Sainya' is unique because love poet and music director K.Kalyan has introduced eight new singers - Shruthi Srinath, Bharat, Nitin Rajaram Shastri, Sri Priya, Aishwarya, Nivedhana Muluvadi, Chinmayi and Priyadarshini Ram. Perhaps this is the only Kannada film with so many new talented debutant singers in the recent past. Ajai Warior, Badariprasad and Rajesh Krishnan have also rendered voice for eight songs in the film.
In addition to the melodious eight tunes in the film director Chennangappa K.E. the former KAS officer has hunted lovely locations and according to his rigorous search of mountain ranges and dense forests in Dakshin Kannada the one Casan Makki location is equivalent to Barnard Pass in Switzerland. Whether my work of story, screenplay and direction plus K.Kalyan music would be recognized or not but the nature beauty shown in the film would be definitely taken note by the audience disclosed the confident Chennagangappa. The trace of new locations inside Karnataka needs the push from the tourism department of the Karantaka government felt the former government official.
I have a great confidence in creativity of director Chennagangappa and music director cum lyricist K.Kalyan disclosed Dr.Jayamala at the audio release function. Producer and treasurer of KFCC Sa.Ra.Govindu in his speech welcomed the young chap Shravanth his family friend whom he calls as 'Dingy' to cinema field.
Debutant actor Shravanth felt happy for getting such a nice platform and work environment. Actress Radhika Gandhi sister of well known actress Pooja Gandhi appreciated the cozy atmosphere despite of working in deep forests and climbing of mountains. Pooja Gandhi present at the same audio release said her sister cannot ask for any better script than the one prepared by Chennagangappa.
Cameraman J.G.Krishna is hoping for award for his work. For the same director's earlier film 'Nannaseya Hoove' (starring Jaggesh and Monica Bedi) J.G.Krishna bagged the Karnataka state award.
