Kannada actor Sumukh, who gained recognition with Manada Kadalu, is celebrating his birthday with the announcement of his next film. Known for playing a charming lover boy in Yogaraj Bhat’s movie, Sumukh will now surprise audiences in a completely rugged look, marking a big shift from his earlier image as a chocolate hero.
To make the occasion special, the team released the first poster of the upcoming film. The poster features Sumukh standing in front of a Ganesh painting, holding a paint box. Alongside the visual, a powerful tagline reads: His dedication never bows down, it blazes like fire. This has already created curiosity about his new role.
The film will be directed by Sanjay KK, who has worked for nearly 15 years as an associate director. With this project, he is stepping into the director’s seat for the first time. Interestingly, he has also penned the story himself. The plot is based on a true incident that took place in Bengaluru. Sanjay revealed that he has been shaping the script for the last five years, and the time has finally come to bring it alive on the big screen.
Backed by Royal Fire Entertainment, the project promises to present Sumukh in a new and intense avatar. The makers have hinted that further updates regarding the supporting cast and technical team will be revealed in the coming days.
