[3] Harsha managed the entire event and choreographed the audio launch function of Nikhil Kumar's debut film, Jaguar.

Harsha took up direction again with Birugaali in 2009, this time including Chetan of Aa Dinagalu fame and casting his wife Sitara Vaidya.

With no creative mind set, and banking heavily upon his narrative style from the previous 'commercially' successful films and off course leaving it to his favourite God - the ingredients remains the same but packed with a new label - comedy.

[15] Harsha followed with two remakes Anjani Putra,[16] which received mixed reviews even with Puneet Rajkumar in lead,[17] and Seetharama Kalyana,[18] which was a flop.

Sources add that when Harsha presented the actor with the complete script, he wasn't too happy and had reportedly told the director to fine-tune it to meet his approval standards.

Further, with the director's track record not being up to scratch, Yash's well-wishers reportedly advised him to put Raana in cold storage for the time being.
