Ugadi (Kannada: ಯುಗಾದಿ) is a 2007 Indian Kannada romantic drama film directed by Om Sai Prakash and produced by Mega Hit Productions. The film cast includes V. Ravichandran, Telugu actor Srikanth, Kamna Jethmalani and Jennifer Kotwal in the main roles.[1] The film is a remake of the successful Telugu film Santosham (2002) directed by Dasaradh and starred Akkineni Nagarjuna and Prabhudeva.[2]
The film released on 6 July 2007 to average response where the critics called it as an "ordinary" remake[3] and "the only redeeming factor of this film is the last 20 minutes of the film". Nowrunning.com reviewed the film as "just another remake which does not raise above the ordinary levels and certainly does not reach the standards of its original film".[4] Ironically, the film which itself was a remake from Telugu, was later dubbed again in Telugu language and released as America Alludu (2011).[5]
