Late actor Puneeth Rajkumar's dream project, Gandhada Gudi is set to release in theatres in 2022. Shivarajkumar, Puneeth's older brother, and Yash (of KGF fame) rushed to Twitter to share the Gandhara Gudi teaser and discuss how important the film was for Puneeth.
The wildlife documentary is expected to be a visual treat. Amoghavarsha-directed film featuring late film icon Puneeth Rajkumar shows the importance of land and nature. The unveiling of
the film coincides with the birth anniversary of the actor’s mother Parvathamma Rajkumar.

the Karnataka woods and the project has been in the works for a long time. Gandhada Gudi, which translates to "temple of sandalwoods," is the title of the film.
It was also the title of a 1973 hit by late acting icon Dr Rajkumar, which talked about the significance of maintaining the sanctity and wealth of Karnataka's jungles.
"Appu’s dream, an incredible journey, a celebration of our land and it's legend. It's time for the return - Gandhada Gudi" tweeted Amoghavarsha. Puneeth's elder brother Shivarjkumar also shared the teaser of the film on social media platforms.
