Ramleela (2015 Kannada film)

Ram-leela begins with Ram kidnapping Neetu, who is the sister of Annachi, as she is marrying Bharath although Neetu is in love with someone else. He leaves for Bangalore and waits for everything in his home, Mysore to clear. He stays with his friend Lakshmi. There he falls for Chandrakala, the sister of a troublemaker Baby. Chandrakala rags other students in the college using her sister's power. After her initial rejection, Ram gets her to reciprocate his feelings. Meanwhile, Annachi arrives at Bangalore in order to reach Sippy, the driver who helped Ram kidnap Neetu. Annachi, unaware of the fact that he is traveling in Sippy's taxi, goes around Bangalore with a rising television actor named Boiling star Bablu.

Meanwhile, Ugrappa is an MLA, who is behind Chandrakala's life attacks her, through which Ram discovers that Chandrakala is actually Annachi's second sister and that Annachi had sent her with Baby to Bangalore to maintain a low profile. Annachi readies Chandrakala to marry Bharath. He also continues to search for whoever (Ram) abducted his sister. Using the help of Nano Shastri, Ram manages to get Annachi and Chandrakala into his house. He also learns that the reason Ugrappa wants to kill Chandrakala. Ugrappa's younger sister Vasanthi killed herself because she loved Annachi, although he did not reciprocate the same. He hires Sanjana Sippy, Sippy's wife, to act like his father, Mekedaatu Pappana aka Puppy's wife.

He tells Neetu to come back on the engagement day to act as if not married and Annachi fixes the marriage of his elder sister with Bharat, but unexpectedly they learn that Neetu is pregnant and so Bharat refuses to marry. Then Ram tells Annachi that his brother who is actually Neetu's husband and is acting as Annachi's brother will marry Neetu. Annachi agrees for the wedding and, in turn tells Chandrakala that she is to marry Bharat again. Through an attack incident, Ram learns that Bharat is Ugrappa's son. He tells Ugrappa that even Annachi is aware of this fact and is planning to kill Bharat on a trip to Srisailam. Ugrappa ends up believing him and attacks Annachi and the group on the way. He foolishly reveals to Annachi that Bharat is his son and is aware that Annachi will kill him.

When Ugrappa realizes his folly, he takes Chandrakala (using Annachi's henchman Bunty) and Bharat and escapes from the spot. Boiling star Bablu, who mistakes it to be a movie shoot stops Ugrappa on the way which gives enough time for Ram to reach Ugrappa. In a thrilling climax, Ram gets Annachi to beat up Ugrappa and using his Sympathy angle trick, which he had earlier used to get Annachi and his sister together, He gets Annachi to agree for his and Chandrakala's wedding as well. The film ends with Sippy saying that with tactfulness, not only Annachi, but even God can be fooled.

Producer Soundarya Jagadish obtained the remake rights of the Telugu film Loukyam and chose a debutant director Vijay Kiran to direct the film giving a large amount of native touch to the remake. Vijay Kiran wrote the screenplay as well for the film and roped in actress Amulya and music director Anup Rubens to the team. The team went to Georgia to shoot the song sequences making it the first Kannada film to shoot in those locations.[5][6] Actress Sanjjanaa was roped in to play a special guest character role.[7]

The film's soundtrack and original score is composed by Anup Rubens who also composed the original Telugu version. A total of 5 songs have been composed out of which two are taken from the original version and the rest are created by the composer. Actor Puneeth Rajkumar recorded his voice for a song which was launched by actor Dhruva Sarja.[8] A unique idea of launching each song making it a total of six audio launches has been planned for the film's soundtrack. Reportedly, there would be five different audio launches for the five tracks and a final launch officially for all the tracks.[9]

The second track was officially launched at actor Upendra's residence. The song featuring Sanjjanaa was released by Upendra and Priyanka Upendra on Sanjjanaa's birthday.[10] A week later, the third song was released by actor Shiva Rajkumar.[11]
