Former contestants of Bigg Boss Kannada Season 7 Divya Uruduga and bike racer Aravind KP are all set to appear on the silver screen together. The off-screen couple are teaming up in Huliraya director Aravind Kaushik's upcoming film, Ardhambarda Premakathe.
The film is set for a November release. The team recently unveiled the first lyrical video, Hucchu Manasina Hudugi, with lyrics written by director Aravind himself. The song features vocals by Vasuki Vaibhav and Prithvi Bhat, with music composed by Arjun Janya. During the song's launch, the director revealed how they decided to bring bike racer Aravind KP into Ardhambarda Premakathe.
"I noticed Aravind during a discussion of my story with Divya Uruduga. I found Aravind to be charming, and decided to cast him in my film. While Aravind initially expressed his lack of experience in acting, I gave him the confidence, and he has definitely excelled in his role," says the director.
The film, which explores the challenges young couples face when transitioning from love to a relationship, includes four songs.
