Amidst speculations of star wars in the film industry, sandalwood for a change has been witnessing an atmosphere of brotherhood with leading actors openly appreciating each others’ work and wishing the best of the results for all their hard works. 

Like, recently Kichcha Sudeepa tweeted wishing the team of Natasaarvabhowma and especially power star Puneeth Rajkumar on the eve of trailer release of the movie. He even wished that it may touch the extremes which the team intends to. It was soon followed by Puneeth Rajkumar thanking Kichcha Sudeepa with a special mentioning of the Pailwaan trailer, which he says he found it very interesting.

While social media has proven most effective when it comes to such goodwill gestures, the star actors are often seen promoting and encouraging new filmmakers and budding talents on various platforms. 

Unlike the past, when two biggest stars appeared together in an event, it would hit the headlines but with social media these days, they are just a tweet or post away from connecting with each other followed by their fan's joining the conversation.

Abhinaya Chakravarthy Kichcha Sudeepa says it's a new feel to play the role of Vikranth Rona in Phantom which is being directed by Anup Bhandari of the fame of Rangitaranga. He goes on to add that the character will have complete newness to it which is well crafted by Anup and his team.

Kichcha also shares that the team has created a fantastic ambiance and is sure that it will be a great time shooting for Phantom. Whereas, director Anup Bhandari who is excited about working with Kichcha Sudeepa for Phantom, says the actor nailed it on the first day of the shoot.

Abhinaya Chakravarthy Kichcha Sudeepa's next to hit the floor is going to be Phantom. To be directed by Rangitaranga fame director Anup Bhandari, this one will also see his younger brother Nirup Bhandari in a prominent role.

That's not all, the makers are keen to cast Samantha Akkineni opposite Kichcha, who was last seen with him in the Telugu blockbuster 'Eega'.

Producer Jack Manju has revealed that the script work for the film is done even as the location hunt for the same has begun. If everything goes according to the plan, the makers say that the film will go on the floors from January.

Abhinaya Chakravarthy Kichcha Sudeepa has revealed that he had borrowed Rs.25,000 from his wife Priya during the making of his film Nalla.

The star actor has said that they went on to make 'Sparaha’' on a low budget but when it exceeded, it was his sister who helped by selling her gold bangles and even borrowed money from his better half Priya, who was then working in a private company. 

"Finally, it was Madhu Bangarappa, who lend five lakhs to wrap up the film. Undoubtedly, it is my family and films like Huccha which made me what I am today," Kichcha says.

Clearing the air over the deletion of Kotigobba 3 official teaser from YouTube, producer Soorappa Babu has said that due to technical reasons the teaser was deleted, to which Anand Audio has taken up the case with the YouTube and the teaser will be uploaded shortly.

"The trouble started after the shooting in Poland with two brothers Sanjay Pal and Ajai Pal whose services we had hired for shooting in Poland. We faced a lot of problems including a couple of technicians who were not allowed to return from abroad. I got them back through the intervention of our Indian Government," said Soorappa Babu.

He further adds that he was deeply hurt following various baseless reports being telecasted and published through various mediums. "YouTube runs on its own mechanism through electronically and once somebody claims (even falsely) the rights of a content, the concerned video is taken off until it is communicated back with proofs. Since it was uploaded through Anand Audio channel, Mr Shyam has taken up the case with YouTube and it will be uploaded back at the earliest," he clarified.

That apart, all other reports are baseless, as the background score works will resume soon at the earliest in two days time after Arjun Janya fully recovers. "There is no 'pink problem' either nor any kind of misunderstanding with anyone. In fact, we are so confident of Kotigobba 3's success that we are already planning the story for Kotigobba 4! I must thank Kichcha Sudeepa for his great support. We are planning for the release in April," he adds.

Sudeep starrer 'Kotigobba 3' is ready and waiting for a release. Meanwhile, a song which was released on Sunday has garnered more than 2.5 million hits in just 20 hours and created a record of sorts.

A peppy number called by 'Pataaki Poriyo' written by Anup Bhandari and sung by Vijayprakash and Anuradha Bhatt was released on Sunday morning in the Anand Audio channel of You tube. Within a span of 20 hours, the song has got 25 lakhs hits and is marching ahead.

'Kotigobba 3' is being produced by Soorappa Babu and directed by Shiva Karthik. The film stars Sudeep, Moncia Sebastian along with Ravishankar, Aftab Shivadasani and others. Shekhar Chandru is the cameraman, while Arjuna Janya is the music director.

Entertainer to the core/

A perfect Dasara gift for the Kannada audience

Kotigobba 3 takes off from the high where Kotigobba 2 ended and zooms into another level of entertainment. The showcase is bigger, the fights and stunts grander, the songs more lavish and the overall canvas of the film literally stretches from Bengaluru to Poland. Sudeep encompasses this canvas end to end. And it is a treat par excellence for fans. 

Kotigobba 2 ended with the fictitious Shiva dying and Sathya trapping the corrupt police ACP for the death. However the confusion over whether there is just one person impersonating another continues in K3. An Interpol team following a huge heist believes Sathya is actually a person who calls himself Ghost. 

There begins a cat and mouse game of chases, intrigue, confusion and entertaining commercial masala plot churning. Sudeep hogs the limelight with various getups, not just as Sathya and the Ghost but also in a couple of other ones. One in which he dons an old man's role is surprisingly good. 

A hero's commercial outing apart, K3 has more in terms of a plot. Our hero has a motive for going international and it has a very local and personal connection too. That is a surprising and dramatic bit in the second half. 

In between there are comic situations galore that keep the entertainment quotient always high. P Ravishankar, Ravishankar Gowda, Tabala Nani churn out one special scene after the other. 

There is special place for music in the film with chart buster songs that are placed and paced well. Pataki Poriyo early on is a brilliant dance number. The cinematography makes the film feel like an international project. The scenes at the foreign location gives K3 the feel of a lavish Hollywood action film. Every scene in the film is made on a lavish scale and you can actually see the crores of Rupees in each of them. 

K3 is what a commercial film on a very big budget looks like. It has the story, charm, entertainment, drama and sentiments to cater to everyone. It is a perfect Dasara gift for the Kannada audience.

With the seventh season of Bigg Boss in Kannada is ready to hit the small screens this Saturday with a grand opening, a lot of speculations over the 'big remuneration' for Abhinaya Chakravarthy Kichcha Sudeepa is trending on social media.

Responding to such speculations, Kichcha Sudeepa has said that money is not a debate for him at this juncture of his career. "Many wrongly assume that I make a lot of money from movies. In fact, I have lost from my own pocket in some situations. Yes, I do earn beyond movies. I have had a good understanding with the makers of Bigg Boss. However, I do not underestimate myself, as I am certainly quite expensive."

He goes on to add that money is something which his family looks after. "The only person who should be completely aware of my earnings is my better half, and trust me she knows about it better than me," he adds.

The versatile actor and filmmaker who is busy with multiple projects in multiple languages shared his experiences and learnings while hosting the reality show for several seasons. He also clarified that apart from sportsman Ayyappa, whom he had recommended during an emergency situation, he had never ever influenced or recommended any other persons entry into the show.

In the seventh season, the show will see only celebrities as contestants with a new house and everything new for the audience to watch out for. The grand opening of the show will also be live telecasted in select few multiplexes.

The much awaited audio release of Pailwaan starring Abhinaya Chakravarthy Kichcha Sudeepa, produced and directed by S Krishna, will now be released on August 18. Earlier, the film team had organised a grand audio release event in Chitradurga on August 9 but due to the prevailing flood situation in the State, the venue has now been shifted to Bengaluru wherein it will be a low key affair.

The film made in multiple languages including Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi is scheduled for release on September 12. The film team had made grand arrangements in Chitradurga to accommodate huge audience but with the flood situation, they felt it inappropriate to hold any such functions there and have moved it to Bengaluru. The team is also working on helping the victims in its own capacities.

The film stars Sudeep, Suniel Shetty and Aakanksha Singh among others, which is releasing worldwide on September 12

Ever since Abhinaya Chakravarthy Kichcha Sudeepa starrer ‘Pailwaan’ took off, it has raised the expectations to another level. With the latest news being the movie releasing in eight languages including Kannada, the movie lovers especially the fans of Kichcha Sudeepa are eagerly waiting for a glimpse of Pailwaan.

Owing to the demands of Kichcha Sudeepa fans, the Pailwaan film team headed by its director Krishna has planned for an exclusive kusthi look poster from film showcasing the star in action.

He simply rocks as Pailwaan, and he is namma very own Abhinaya Chakravarthy and the Badshah of Sandalwood- Kichcha Sudeepa.

The story is straight and simple which is another crucial factor for why it appeals to not just Kichcha fans but the general audience who seeks for a complete two plus hours of pure meaningful entertainment.

Kichcha shines without an iota of doubt and all his hard work to get into the soul of the character of a pailwaan, a desi fighter has paid off. The biggest surprise of all is his transformation to fit into the role of a professional boxer in the second half. More than the physical changes, the emotional shift and the thinking of a true wrestler is the real and reel winner for the actor.

Insofar as the supporting cast, it is Bollywood actor Suneil Shetty, who makes his debut in Kannada with this one which adds greater value to the script by not limiting his talent to couple of scenes as a guest actor but is seen in major chunks of Pailwaan. That apart, Aakanksha Singh who also makes her debut too, leaves a pretty impression and stands out as a cute lover and then as a supporting wife and a mother.

The rest is more or less about the fight. The motto of a real wrestler fighter is to fight for a noble cause, and this what Pailwaan stands for. The making and everything else with respect to the technical aspects are of top notch which makes it one of the best from cinematographer turned director Krishna.

Pailwaan is worth every penny, and deserves appreciation for sheer hard work and dedication. Go watch the extravaganza at a theatre near you, as this match is won already.
