Daali Dhananjaya: 'The pre-release rally is our tribute to all the women involved in Head Bush'

Come October 21st and Daali Dhananjaya will be seen donning what would seem like his most ambitious avatar to date. The day marks the release of his production venture Head Bush in which he attempts to bring to life the story of former Bengaluru don M.P. Jayaraj, and ahead of the release, the entire team has embarked on a special journey from Bengaluru to Davanagere. This journey comes in the lead-up to the mega trailer launch event held in Davanagere on October 16 and in keeping with the tradition so far, Dhananjaya & co. prioritize crowd interactions along their way to the event.

The pre-release event will include several pitstops between Bengaluru and Davanagere and Dhananjaya, accompanied by his co-stars, teammates, and a big media entourage, can be spotted in specific locations. The journey, as suggested by the route map, will begin in Bengaluru at the Sri Bande Mahakaali temple at around 7:30 am on October 16 before the group heads towards the Siddhaganga Matha in Tumakaru to seek blessings. The team will then head to the city of Chitradurga to pay a visit to the Hucchangi Yellamma Devasthana and then make their way toward Davanagere to prep for the mega event later in the evening.

Speaking about the idea behind the journey, Daali Dhananjaya says, “We are starting the trip and concluding it later by paying our respects to goddesses because there is a strong female presence in the film and I believe that women have been instrumental in the making of Head Bush. Be it in the direction team or in other departments, we have had many women work on our team and the trailer launch event too will include several female superstars as chief guests - the same temple of Sri Bande Mahakaali is where Tagaru, Salaga, and Badava Rascal were kicked-off so we believe the place to be auspicious to us.”

Dhananjaya added that the whole team of Head Bush is keen on interacting with fans along the way and assured that those who have loved his portrayal of Daali in Tagaru will certainly find the upcoming film to be equally engaging, if not more. “The trailer will reveal the quality of our film,” he said in a media interaction.

The actor-producer is joined by cast members Yogesh, Payal Rajput, and others in the pre-release rally to Davanagere. The trailer launch will see many Kannada superstars such as Ramya, Rachita Ram, Sapthami Gowda, Amrutha Iyengar, Sanjana Anand, Sathish Ninasam, and several others.

Head Bush has been directed by Shoonya and written by Agni Sreedhar who has based it on his autobiography My Days in the Underworld. Dhananjaya produces the film under his home banner of Daali Pictures in association with Somanna Talkies - Charan Raj scores the music, Sunoj Velayudhan handles cinematography and Joseph K. Raja takes care of the editing.
