Titled as “Kami Swamy” (Lustful Godman), it was shot in three days in Bangalore. Several Kannada film artists have featured in the Video film.
“As soon as the scandal broke out, we decided to write a script. We worked for nearly four weeks on the script. Besides Nityananda episode, we have many issues related to the present political developments. It will be a laugh riot and we are sure people will like the sarcasm and message in the film,” said Dayanand.
The post-production work of the film is in progress. Mohan of Anand Audio Company is producing the video that will be released soon.
