    The Rickshaw Driver is the best movie ever made in Tulu Film Industry until now.

    The movie is set for re- release d scenes, story continuity, additional scenes.

    The movies provides public messages on social unity without caste or creed difference, to stop Human Child Sacrifice based on superstitious beliefs, the importance of self employment without consideration of white collar jobs, and what is true meaning of love and thought and actions that can complicate a healthy relationship.


    I hope the produced Mr. Praveen Kumar Konchady, will in future, produce and director this type of similar movies, which provides, a good message to public and society.

    I congratulate Mr. Praveen Kumar Konchady and his whole team, for their efforts and hard work.

    We truly have a distinguished personality who will, in future run, will create a history in Tulu Movie Industry.

    Mr. Karthik, is truly a versatile actor, who will surely make his mark not only in Tulu film industry, but also we will have a great super star, from Mangalore, who will bring name and fame to our Tulunadu.

    Hats off!!!!! Rickshaw Driver Team

    All The best Mr. Karthik!!!

    Its a good movie. Good to learn that, the film is re-releasing with changes in the climax.
    I would like to suggest the Director to totally remove the Scenes of Naveen Padeel. It is total non-sense Thre is no connectivity with the Film's core story.
