Wikipedia article
'Nee Nanna Gellalare' is a 1981 Indian Kannada-language film directed by Vijay and produced by S.A. Srinivas. The film stars Rajkumar and Manjula .
Though the movie managed to recover its budget, the movie's performance is considered to be underwhelming with a theatrical run of only 63 days (approximately) which was the lowest ever for a Rajkumar movie until the release of the 1987 film, 'Ondu Muttina Kathe', which, however, was more of an art movie with an immense cult following. This is the only movie of Rajkumar for which Ilaiyaraaja was the music composer.
