Immediately capturing the real life developments is also a clever way of the director Pallakki Radhakrishna. Sky rocketing of the land owners in Devanahalli in the wake of International Airport coming in the surroundings and the ordinary guys with 'beedis' in their pockets owning imported cars from the land sale has attracted Pallakki and he is bringing all the shades of development in 'Devanahalli' Kannada film.

Pallakki Radhakrishna not stinking rich but stayed in Devanahalli when he was in the railways as an employee has also thought of getting raw talent to the film to the cinema. In the last two years he has traveled various districts of Karnataka and found the right talent like Rahul, Uday Munda, Sri Raghav, Shravani, Dr.Chakravarthy, Hanumanthu etc and also included some of the veterans for the completion of two schedule of the film.

Shooting in Bangalore, Yelahanka, Sanehalli of Chitradurga director Pallakki invested the right money for the film without excessive spending. We are investing lakhs and have the urge to get crores he says. He says frankly that he has not paid the artists any remuneration.

The Shviasanchara and Ninasam theatre groups have been very helpful as the talents of theatre have been used for the film 'Devanahalli' who have no inhibitions says Pallakki.
