This is not Rajeev Gandhi) (also known as Rajeeva) is a 2007 Indian Kannada-language action drama film directed by Ravi Srivatsa and starring Vijay Raghavendra in the titular role, Rakshitha, Vijay and Nagashekhar with Harish Roy as the antagonist. The film was released after a five-year delay.
Encounter specialists Rajeev, Shravya, Bikku, Musa and Vivek Acharya, dubbed as the Panchpandas, are after gangster Samson and his brother Bachchan, who are in Singapore and controlling the Bangalore underworld.[1]
The film began production in 2002 and is an amalgamation of Kaakha Kaakha (2003) and Ab Tak Chhappan (2004).[1] The film was initially titled Rajeev Gandhi Alla Godse.[2] Tilak was initially considered to play one of the City Crime Branch officers.[3][4]
The music was composed by Sadhu Kokila.[5]
R. G. Vijayasarathy of Rediff.com rated the film one out of five stars and wrote that "First up, a warning: Rajeeva is the cinematic equivalent of being shut up for two hours in a torture chamber" and advised viewers to "Watch the film solely at your own risk". [6]
