Naanu Nanna Hendthi (transl. Me and my wife) is a 1985 Kannada-language romantic drama film directed by D. Rajendra Babu and written by K. S. Satyanarayan. The film stars V. Ravichandran, Urvashi and Leelavathi.[1] The core plot of the film was loosely based on the 1981 Telugu film Nenu Maa Aavida. The soundtrack and score composition was by Shankar–Ganesh and the film was produced by N. Veeraswamy. D. Rajendra Babu made his Bollywood debut in 1987, with the remake version of this movie, titled as Pyaar Karke Dekho. The song Akkipete Lakkamma was retained in the Hindi version as Haki Petai Lakamma- both sung by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam. The film was also remade in Tamil as Kanna Thorakkanum Saami. The film was a box office success.[2]

The music was composed by Shankar–Ganesh, with lyrics by Hamsalekha.[3] All the songs were received extremely well. The songs "Karunada Thayi", "Yaare Neenu Roja" and "Yaare Neenu Cheluve" found widespread appreciation upon release. The song "Karunada Thayi" was set in the Carnatic raga Abheri (known as Bhimpalasi in Hindustani music). The song "Yaare Neenu Roja" was remixed in the film Saheba (2017) starring V. Ravichandran's son Manoranjan.[4]
