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.[2] This is the only movie of Rajkumar for which Ilaiyaraaja was the music composer.

Soundtrack[edit]

The music of the film was composed by Ilaiyaraaja with lyrics penned by Chi. Udaya Shankar. I Love You was set in Carnatic Raaga called Kapi; Anuraga Enaytu is based on Madhuvanthi raaga while the song Nanna Neenu Gellalaare is based on Shuddha Dhanyasi and Hindola raagas. The soundtrack I Love You has been recreated in a number of later movies - while the 2008 movie Moorane Class Manja B.Com Bhagya recreated the entire song using the original soundtrack, the 2009 movie Circus used the opening lines of the song . The opening lines were also recreated in a sequence for the 2018 movie - The Villain.
