 ‘Haggada Kone’ (Kannada)
Haggada Kone is a crime-drama film directed by Dayal Padm­an­ab­han and stars Naveen Krishna in the lead role.

The film is a modern-day adap­tat­ion of a play of the same name written by Parvathavani. Nave­en Krishna was selected to pl­ay the lead role and also pen the dialogues for the film, with his real-life father Srinivasa Mu­rthy, Sihi Kahi Geetha, Ta­run Sudhir and Suchendra Prasad playing supporting ro­les.

Krishna plays Channa, a prisoner awaiting his execution. The supporting cast includes Srinivasa Murthy, Suchendra Prasad, Sihi Kahi Geetha, Tarun Sudhir and HG Dattatreya. The film is based on the 1962 play Haggada Kone, written by Parvathavani, performed over 45 minutes, and involves a conversation between a prisoner and the jail superintendent, set in 1963. However, it is set in the modern-day.
