‘The Girlfriend' team comes with soulful first single ‘Nadhive'

National Crush Rashmika Mandanna and rising star Dheekshith Shetty headline the much-anticipated romantic drama The Girlfriend, directed by Rahul Ravindran. Produced by Dheeraj Mogilineni and Vidya Koppineedi under the banners of Geetha Arts and Dheeraj Mogilineni Entertainment, the film is presented by veteran producer Allu Aravind. Currently in post-production, The Girlfriend promises a poignant love story, and is gearing up for a grand theatrical release soon. The makers recently released the film's first single, Nadhive, in five languages — Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam — and it has already struck a chord with audiences. Composer Hesham Abdul Wahab, known for his melodious work in Hridayam, delivers yet another musical gem. With soul-touching vocals and an emotionally rich arrangement, the track paints a heartfelt picture of love and longing. Lyricist Rakendu Mouli's poetic writing perfectly complements Wahab's composition, creating an immersive and emotionally resonant listening experience. Every note in Nadhive is steeped in melody and meaning, making it an instant favourite among music lovers. What elevates the song even further is the onscreen chemistry between Rashmika Mandanna and Dheekshith Shetty. Their graceful performances, choreographed by Vishwakiran Nambi, bring the emotion-laden lyrics to life. Rashmika's expressive close-ups and Dheekshith's subtle charm add depth to the visuals, making the track not just a musical treat, but also a visual delight. With The Girlfriend, director Rahul Ravindran aims to capture the tenderness of love through evocative storytelling, strong performances, and rich music.

Dheekshith Shetty: I want to create space for fresh ideas and emerging talent

We had earlier reported that Blink actor Dheekshith Shetty and director Sreenidhi Bengaluru are reuniting for a new project titled Video. But this time, Dheekshith is not just an actor playing a pivotal role, but also doubling up as the producer. With Video, he officially launches his production banner, Dhee Cinemas Productions, marking a new vista in his decade-long film journey. Known for his performances across Kannada, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam films, Dheekshith says this move is a natural progression. 'I want to create space for fresh ideas and emerging talent,' he shares, underlining his vision for Dhee Cinemas. Video, a found footage horror film, is the banner's debut venture—an ambitious entry into a new genre for Kannada cinema. Director Sreenidhi calls the film a 'vlogumentary'—a blend of vlogging and documentary aesthetics, where actors handle the cameras themselves. From CCTV to dash cams and action cams, the film uses modern devices to craft an immersive horror experience rooted in today's digital culture. 'We want the audience to feel like they're inside the nightmare,' he adds. With 80 per cent of the shoot completed and post-production underway, Video aims to offer a fresh, tech-driven horror narrative with surprising moments of humour. Technicians who worked in Blink are returning for this project, with Prasannaa Kumar composing the soundscape, Avinash Shastry handling cinematography, and Sanjeev Jagirdar in charge of editing.
