Ajagajantara (transl. The difference between a goat and an elephant) is a 1991 Indian Kannada-language romantic black comedy film directed by Kashinath who himself stars in the film alongside Anjana and Sriraksha. Actor director Upendra did an extended cameo.[1] The plot was loosely based on the 1988 novel Indecent Proposal [2] which was adapted into 1993 American movie of the same name which inspired the 1994 Telugu movie Subhalagnam which in turn was remade in 1997 in Kannada again as Ganga Yamuna and also in Hindi as Judaai (1997).[3]
