Baala Bandhana is a 1971 Indian Kannada language romantic drama film, directed by Peketi Sivaram. It stars Rajkumar and Jayanthi in the lead roles. It was produced under ALS Productions.[1] It had a very successful soundtrack composed by G. K. Venkatesh. The film was a remake of A. Bhimsingh's Tamil film Padikkadha Medhai (1960) which itself was a remake of 1953 Bengali film Jog Biyog [2] based on the novel of same name by Ashapoorna Devi.[3] It could not meet the success of the Tamil and Telugu versions. The reason attributed was that the audience felt Sampath could not match the performance of S. V. Ranga Rao.[4]
