Actor and filmmaker Rishab Shetty’s next Harikathe Alla Girikathe, which will be helmed by debutant Giri
Krishna, will be produced by Sandesh Productions. A simple muhurta which happened on Friday was attended by Rakshit Shetty.
The film also has
Pramod Shetty on board. The team, after finalizing the heroine, is planning to start shooting from July. Rishab has decided to postpone the natural horror thriller Rudraprayag for some time as it requires him to shoot in dense forest locations with a big crew, which is not possible owing to the restrictions due to Covid-19 pandemic.
Instead of beginning work on Rudryaprayag, which sees Anant Nag and Shraddha
Srinath in lead roles, right away, Rishab has decided to take up Harikathe Alla Giri Kathe, directed by Giri Krishna, who has worked as an associate for Rishab and Rakshit's films.
Rishab's detective act in the movie Bell Bottom was well received by audiences and since then he is balancing between acting and direction. He will also be seen in Garuda Gamana Vrishabha Vahana which also has Raj B Shetty in the lead role. The movie has already aroused curiosity with it’s intriguing posters. He will also portray underworld don Amar Alva on silver screen which is speculated to go on floors in the next year. The project directed by Nithesh is based on the real life incidents in the life of Amar Alva and will be set in 1980s and 90s. Rishab will also be a part of Bell Bottom 2, which will be sequel to Bell Bottom directed by
