Set in the backdrop of Tulunadu, the movie has been made to suit the local audience.
At the Central Talkies in city, where the movie was released Director Ranjan Raghu Shetty, said: “The film gives prominence to comedy. The entire theme of the Shakespeare's play has been localized. The characterization and the treatment of the story were carefully done to make it more appealing for the audience of Tulunadu."
The film was shot at different locations in Falnir, Dakke, Kaikamba, Kadri Park, Padavu Choutara Mane (a Tuluva ancestral house) in Bikarnakatte and a few places in Mumbai.
In a first in the history of Tulu cinema two lead actors have don dual roles in Amet Asal Eemet Kusal. The Comedy of Errors tells the story of two sets of identical twins who were accidentally separated at birth. Noted Tulu actors Naveen D Padeel and Jyothish Shetty will essay the roles of identical twins.
Ranjan, who had bagged the gold medal in Nokia Mobile Film Making Competition, said that he made the film as he was attracted towards Tulu language and culture.
The star cast includes Bhojraj Vamanjoor, Saikrishna, Sadashiva Ameen, Naveen Shetty, Gopal Salian, Udaykumar Uppinangadi, Bhaskar Adyappadi, Umesh Ameen, Sudheer Kottari, Ranjan Bolar, Akshatha Marla, Sukanya Rai, Saritha Shetty and Shilpa Kotian.
Vijayakumar Kodialbail and M Saikrishna have written the dialogues. While Akash Prajapathi from Mumbai did the music, Tulu poet and actor Shashiraj Rao Kavoor wrote lyrics.
