Nishvika Naidu gets to be best buddies with Ganesh in Gaalipata 2

Kannada filmmaker Yogaraj Bhat’s much-anticipated Gaalipata 2, which stars Golden Star Ganesh, Diganth, Pawan Kumar, Sharmiela Mandre, Samyukta Menon and Vaibhavi Shandilya in the lead, also has Nishvika Naidu in a pivotal role.

According to reports, the actress plays Ganesh’s character’s best friend in the film and most of her portions are with him, which are currently being shot for in Bengaluru. Only days ago, the actress was hobbling around with a bandaged foot at the title launch of one of her upcoming films, so, one hopes that she has made a full recovery before landing up at Yogaraj’s set. Her role, she says, is only a cameo, but one that is important to the narrative, especially the climax of the film. The schedule that the actress is a part of also has Rangayana Raghu, who is also a regular in the Yogaraj camp. It is unlikely that Nishvika will share screen space with any of the other stars of the film. Ganesh, Diganth and Anant Nag are the other actors who have been retained from the filmmaker’s 2008 Gaalipata.

Gaalipata 2 is Nishvika’s first film with director Bhat, but her second with Ganesh. The duo is paired in director Suni’s upcoming crime-comedy #Sakkath, in which Ganesh plays a visually-challenged musician, while the actress plays a visually-challenged teacher.

The actress is also a part of actor Sharan’s next, the sports drama Guru Shishyaru, in which she will be seen as a village belle. Guru Shishyaru is being directed by Jadeesha K Hampi, who also made Gentleman with her. Her most recent singing is the Shiva Tejas directorial Dil Pasand, in which Nishvika will be paired with Darling Krishna.

After the brief break owing to the pandemic, prior to which she had her last release, Gentleman, Nishvika has managed to have quite a few interesting projects in her kitty. It looks like 2022 will be quite a happening year for the actress.
