A thought-provoking Kannada film, Nice Road is about to hit the screens and deals with themes of sin, virtue and reincarnation. Written and directed by Gopal Halepalya, the film stars popular actor Dharma in the lead role after a long gap.
The recently released trailer of the film has created a lot of buzz. Nice Road is Gopal Halepalya’s second directorial film after his earlier film Tandava. This suspense thriller explores the question of why sins committed in this life are punished only in the next!
Sharing his inspiration for the film, Gopal Halepalya revealed that he always imagined Dharma in the role of a detective. Dharma took up the role, which marks his 86th portrayal of a police officer in his decades-long career, with great enthusiasm. “I have played many different roles but police constables have been an important part of my journey. In Nice Road, the story is the real hero, not me. It is a gripping story about karma," said Dharma.
Besides Dharma, Jyothi Rai also plays a pivotal role in the film. The film was shot in 25 days in and around Bengaluru and Kunigal.
Gopal Halepalya clarified that the title of the film, Nice Road does not refer to the NICE (Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprises) Road in Bengaluru, but is a metaphorical reference to a highway admired by the villagers in the story.
The ensemble cast of the film includes Girija Lokesh, Manju Rangayana, Govinde Gowda, Ravikishore, Sacchi, Surekha, Manju Krish and Prabhu Raj. The music of the film is composed by Satish Aryan and the cinematography is by Praveen Shetty.
Produced by Gopal Halepalya under the banner of Punargeetha Cinemas, Nice Road promises to be a gripping film that challenges viewers to ponder deep moral and existential questions.
