Reviving the charm of black-and-white cinema after decades, Hinga Nodpa Jeevana film is an independent Kannada feature that proudly puts Belagavi on the cinematic map. Shot entirely in and around the city, the film captures its unique local essence — from dialects to daily life — through raw, monochrome visuals.
Written and directed by Hrishikesh Sanglikar, the film features Abhijeet Deshpande, Umesh Teli, and Kunal Dongare, with Aradhya Nair, Niveditha Ankalgi, Maruthi Wadar, Vishwanath Charantimath, and many more contributing to an ensemble cast that brings authenticity to the screen. The music is done by Akhil Almatti.
With the first look of the film now unveiled, Hinga Nodpa Jeevana film promises a fresh, rooted, and emotionally resonant cinematic experience for Kannada audiences — and marks a bold creative leap for Belagavi’s growing film culture.
All the best
