S V Rajendra Singh Babu raises objections to Swathi Mutthina Male Haniya title

Veteran director S V Rajendra Singh Babu has written a letter to Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce raising objections to the title Swathi Mutthina Male Haniya which has Siri Ravikumar in the lead role and is directed by Raj B Shetty. The project is bankrolled by Ramya.Rajendra Singh Babu has stated that he is directing the movie with a similar title. The shoot of the movie is also completed. The movie had Ambareesh and Suhasini in lead roles, since Ambareesh passed away, the project stalled. As he still has the right over the title, another Kannada movie cannot have the same title.The team of Swathi Mutthina Male Haniya which has wrapped up shooting in 18 days is yet to respond to the issue. The title is inspired by Swathi Mutthina Male Haniya song from Ravichandran starrer movie Bannada Gejje. The makers are planning to release the movie directly on OTT.Rajendra Singh Babu who has delivered superhit films like Bandhana and Muthina Hara, is currently working on two projects Veera Kambala which is based on Kambala race which is very popular in the coastal region of Karnataka and Bandhana2 which will be a sequel to Bandhana.
