Gandhi is best remembered for producing Sudeep-starrer Veera Madakari which was a massive box office hit and even Hoo and Mallikarjuna featuring Ravichandran that also did well.

Several friends of the man and his family members expressed shock where the sandalwood industry is mourning his demise. It is reported that Dinesh Gandhi had plans to direct a children's movie with his son in the lead. The project was supposed to be produced by Ramesh Kayshao under the banner Simhadri productions. Dinesh Gandhi had also directed the commercial movie Chatrapathi, which had Siddhanth in the lead role. The movie, which released in 2013, is the remake of the Telugu film of the same name.

May his soul rest in peace.
