Baanadariyalli first single: Sonu Nigam - Ganesh combo mesmerizes fans yet again!

The combination of Ganesh and Sonu Nigam is one for the ages. The serendipitous love affair began more than a decade-and-a-half ago with Yogaraj Bhat's blockbuster Mungaru Male and every single time the singer has lent his inimitable voice to the Golden Star since then, it has been nothing short of a celebration for the fans. And as a valid addition to this special collaboration comes the track 'Ninnanu Nodida' from the film Baanadariyalli, a romance-drama directed by Preetham Gubbi and starring Ganesh, Rukmini Vasanth, and Reeshma Nanaiah.

Although the storyline of Baanadariyalli is kept under wraps by the makers, one can judge by the posters and other promotional material that the film boasts many unique elements. One among them is the apparent chemistry between Rukmini Vasanth and Ganesh's characters and the latest single captures just that. The lyrical video showcases the blossoming romance between the two and Sonu Nigam's mesmeric vocals, combined with Arjun Janya's breezy acoustic rendition and Kaviraj's beautiful lyrics, makes things all the more special.

Ninnanu Nodida, Nanthara Jeevake

(Having laid eyes on you, my life...)

Baakiye Illave, Yavude Korike

(...has no other desire left unfulfilled)

Ninneya Olavali, Naashavagi Hogalu

(To be ruined by your love...)

Nanna ee Janumave Meesalu

(...my life remains reserved)

Rukmini Vasanth, as Leela, plays the role of a surfer in the film and the actress underwent training to hone the skill. Interestingly, she would fall in love with the water sport and recently took to social media to share an appreciation post for everyone who helped her along the way. Ganesh, on the other hand, will be seen playing a cricketer in the film.

The team recently shot an important portion of the film in Mangaluru before heading to Kenya for another crucial schedule. Reeshma Nanaiah, who made her debut with Ek Love Ya, will play the role of a wild-life photographer.
