Controversies
Since the title included the name "Puttanna", it was strongly referenced to the veteran film maker Puttanna Kanagal. However, the director Srinivasa Raju denied the reports which suspected the story line linked to the legendary director.[1] Kanagal's wife Nagalakshmi raised an objection to the release of the film. She asked the director to show the film to her prior to its release to which the team agreed.[2]
Apart from the title, the film's first trailer also kicked up controversy with Komal's character mocking several Kannada film stars and directors. To this Komal denied any involvement in such activities.[3]
