Upendra, (popularly also called Uppi) is a Kannada film actor, director, screen writer, lyricist and singer. He is recognised as an established Superstar actor and director of the Kannada film Industry. Born in a middle class family at Koteshwara near Kundapura, he belongs to Tulu speaking Koteshwara Magane Madhwa Brahmin community. Upendra started his career under the director Kashinath as a writer and an assistant director. His first directorial venture was Tharle Nan Maga.
In the late 90s he broke into the scene with the extremely violent Om, which portrayed actual Bangalore gangsters, and this movie is still not yet released in CDs, DVDs and Satellite Rights. He followed this up with A, in which he appeared as Surya. Upendra, his next film, starred Raveena Tandon, a Bollywood actress. After a decade of acting in Kannada, Telugu and Tamil films, he returned to the role of director with the multi-lingual movie Super, which was well-received critically and commercially.
Throughout his career as a director, he has directed many record breaking blockbusters such as Tharle Nan Maga, Shhh!, Om, A, Upendra and Super. His directional movies like A, Swasthik, Upendra and Super resembles the neo-noir film genre where he narrates the story through reverse screenplay and multiple number of flashbacks within flashbacks and thus forces the audience to watch the film multiple number of times to understand the story.

Genres: ,I know your secret
And I promise Ill never tell
Im under its magic spell
Oh Ill try to keep it to myself
I know you have a terrible vat to keep
Oh how do you get to sleep
It must possess you every waking minute
Wondering just what is in it
Where it is in front of you
I know that you wanted to
Dont be shy, Pandora
Pandora dont be shy
Sister, you just cant resist
Neither can I
And it never hurts to try
Just admit
Open it
Pandora
Well, perhaps youre right
And youre happy the way you are
Its better this way by far
Oh but can you handle never knowing?
And what if youre wrong?
And just denying yourself the best
Maybe thats how you fail the test
Oh, dont you have a life to live
And have you no initiative?
And, quick, before we both decay
Baby, are you made of clay
Dont be shy, Pandora
Pandora dont be shy
Sister, you just cant resist
And neither can I
And it never hurts to try
You cant win
Just give in
Pandora
Its no sin
Slither in
Pandora
Oh, how can you sit there in silence
With the rest of us forming a line
Do yourself favour Pandora
Anytime today would be fine
Oh dont be shy, Pandora
Pandora dont be shy
Sister, you just cant resist
Neither can I
And it never hurts to try
Its my turn,
you dont learn
Pandora
Stand aside
Let me try
Pandora
Give it here
Disappear
