Golden
Star
Ganesh
is
currently
busy
shooting
for
his
next
film
99
in
Mangaluru
and
Puttur.
The
actor
is
very
fond
of
the
place
and
there's
a
sweet
reason
behind
that.
While
talking
Time
Of
India,
Ganesh
revealed
that
he
has
a
special
bond
with
Karavali
for
a
lot
of
reasons.
But,
he
has
one
particular
reason
to
like
the
region
so
much
that'll
melt
your
heart.
Ganesh's
spouse
Shilpa
is
from
Karavali
and
hence
the
actor
holds
a
special
bond
with
the
place
as
it
gave
him
his
beloved
wife.
He
said,
"Karavali
gave
me
Shilpa,
my
wife.
So,
I'm
the
son-in-law
of
this
region.
What
could
be
a
greater
bond
than
that?
In
fact,
my
house
is
half
Kannadiga
and
half
Tuluva.
The
kids
converse
with
me
in
Kannada
and
Shilpa
has
taught
them
her
mother
tongue.
I
keep
hearing
'bala'
(meaning,
come)
all
the
time,".
Ganesh
futher
added,
"The
first
time
I
came
here
was
with
friends
from
college.
It
was
the
first
time
I
ever
saw
a
beach.
Incidentally,
the
makers,
director
and
music
director
(Jagdish
Kotyan,
MD
Sridhar
and
Guru
Kiran)
of
my
first
film
Chellata
were
also
from
Mangaluru.
Subsequently,
I
shot
for
many
films
in
the
region
(almost
eight);
the
last
one
being
Buguri.
Now
I'm
back
for
99,
and
I
couldn't
be
happier."
He
said
he
is
excited
to
be
back
in
Mangaluru
considering
how
much
the
place
means
to
him.
Describing
the
experince
he
said,
"We
shot
at
this
100-year-old
school
in
Puttur,
which
is
an
hour
away
from
Mangaluru.
The
airport
and
the
University
College
were
some
of
the
other
places
we
shot
at.
I
feel
fortunate
to
have
shot
at
these
locations
because,
of
their
heritage
value."
