And he���s quick to clarify that the film is not a sequel to Mungaru Male, but ���a different love story.���So why aren���t Ganesh and Puja Gandhi a part of this venture, while the rest of the team including cinematographer Krishna, music director Mano Murthy and editor Deepu S, remain the same?
���When a new cast is introduced, people come to watch a film without any expectations.

But if it stars big names, there���s bound to be a lot of expectations. We want people to come and watch our film with no expectations and give us the same support they gave Mungaru Male ��� then it���ll do better than Mungaru Male,��� says Pritam.
And why isn���t Yograj Bhat a part of the film? ���Yograj Bhat will always be my friend and guide. When I thought of this film, in addition to doing the story and screenplay, I also wanted to direct it. And Yograj understands that,��� explains Pritam.
The film, in addition to retaining signature features of Mungaru Male like breath-taking cinematography and melodious music, has also borrowed its title from the hit song Anisuthide Yaako Indu. ���The Haage Summane line in the song became really popular. So the film has been titled Haage Summane... Pyar Ho Gaya,��� he says.
And unlike Mungaru Male whose highlights were greenery, Haage Summane will feature dry lands and backwaters. ���We will again highlight Karnataka and shoot in Gokarna, Mangalore, Kabini and Honnavar,��� says Pritam.
