Production

Raghav Loki met and briefed him a story written by him which had impressed Ramesh. "I think Shivaraj Kumar would be the best choice for the hero’s role in the film. If Shivaraj Kumar agrees to the main role, then I would produce the film." Ramesh assured Loki. Loki got the approval of Shivaraj Kumar and Sathya In Love became a reality.

To make Sathya in Love a memorable film, Ramesh provided all the necessary support to Raghava Loki.

Satya In Love is the first Kannada film to employ 4K digital intermediate technology.[2]

Reception

It grossed 4 crores in the opening weekend, which is a new record.[5] The movie completed 50 days in 19 centers and 100 days in 3 centers Bangalore, Hubli and Belgaum.

The film has been dubbed into Telugu and will be released shortly.
