Kodanda Rama
Kodanda Rama is a 2002 Indian Kannada language romantic comedy film directed, scripted and composed by V. Ravichandran. Besides Ravichandran, the film stars Shivarajkumar, Sakshi Shivanand, Asha Saini and Mohan Shankar in the leading roles.[1] The film was a remake of Malayalam film Thenkasipattanam (2000) directed by Rafi Mecartin. The film's widely acclaimed success led to its remake in Tamil with the same title name in 2002, in Telugu as Hanuman Junction (2001) and in Bengali as Golmaal (2008). However, the Kannada version did not match the success of its Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu versions.[2]
