Kudlu Ramakrishna, the prominent director of the Kannada film industry, is still pinning hopes on his two projects that are currently in cold storage.

Kudlu Ramakrishna has not given up hope of his long pending 'Jugari Cross' starring Shivarajakumar. Rs. 28 lakhs have already been spent on the film, so far. Besides this, 'Udbhava' is another film and Kudlu Ramakrishna is adamant on remaking this block buster Kannada film in Hindi. He has consulted a producer from Mumbai and wants to cast Sanjay Dutt in the role that was essayed by versatile actor Ananthnag, two decades ago.

Kudlu Ramakrishna is also ready with the script for his long awaited film 'Neeru' that's based on national integration.
