Produced by Varun Studios and Gulmohar Films, the movie has been in the news since the day it was launched for the unique campaigns the makers have rolled out.

The 'protest song' -- as the first number is billed -- is a peppy number that talks about the life of hostel students. Yograj Bhat has written the lyrics and Ajaneesh Loknath has scored music for this song. The highlight of the song is that Rishab Shetty and the director, Pawan Kumar, will be seen in it. Many theatre actors were cast for this film and therefore serves as a unique experiment. Puneeth Rajkumar, Sudeep, Ramya, Rakshith Shetty, and many other big stars have played cameo roles in 'Hostel Hudugaru Bekaagidaare'.
