Arjun, from an influential family in Kodagu district, is engaged to his childhood friend Kaveri (the Kaveri River originates in the Kodagu district). While he is in the Himalayas, he is saved from a fatal accident by Ganga from Kullu-Manali, whom he agrees to marry (Kullu and Manali are near the origin of the Ganga at Gomukh). Who he marries forms the rest of the story.
The music was composed by K. Kalyan,[1] who also wrote the lyrics. He won the Karnataka State Film Award for Best Lyricist for his work in this film. The song "Baaro Baaro Dosti" was shot in Bangkok.[2]

A critic from Bangalore Mirror wrote that "The actors are grossly under utilised while Venu manages to capture the beautiful locals in all their splendour. Throw in the few good songs by K Kalyan but there is nothing else about Ganga Kaveri worth paying a visit to the theatre".[3] A critic from Rediff.com wrote that "Ganga Cauvery is better than the present crop of films. It is slow but still good for a family viewing".[4] A critic from IANS wrote that "Despite its many technical high points, Ganga Cauvery turns out to be just another ordinary fare".[5]
