The times of India
12 Apr 2008

After doing the rounds of the usual suspects like Bangkok, Switzerland and Austria, Sandalwood has now shifted focus to more exotic locations like Cambodia.

And are we happy about that! Debutante director Venkatesh Panchangam’s Kalidasa Love Alli Bidda is the first Kannada film to be shot in the world famous ruins and temples of Cambodia.

The film stars newcomers Amithraj and Vardhini. Says Amithraj, “The story like the title suggests is filled with a lot of romance but with a twist.

My character in the film is a poet and considers himself a messenger of love! The minute I heard the script, I was very impressed with it.

And love stories are a hit with the audience any day,” says Amithraj. Amith, we hear is also an excellent dancer.
