Written and directed by Mahesh Gowda, the film, says Kaajal, speaks of vitiligo, without being preachy. “The film does not aim at creating awareness about the skin condition. Instead, it deals with the emotional state and challenges a person with vitiligo goes through and how it affects the people connected to them. The film’s director, Mahesh, who plays the lead, has this skin condition.”
Kaajal started her career with small roles on television, including Har Har Mahadev. She found her footing in Kannada cinema with Maya Kannadi, KTM with Deekshith Shetty and Pepe with Vinay Rajkumar.
Sanchith Sanjeev, now known as Sanchii, is gearing up for his debut in a crime thriller, directed by Viveka in his first directorial venture. Produced by Supriyanvi Productions and KRG Studios, the makers have planned a grand launch with the first look and title reveal set for January 24.
Joining the cast is Kaajal Kunder, known for her unconventional and meaningful roles in films like Megha and Lineman. The Pepe actor is excited to bring another intriguing character to life. Speaking to CE, Kajal shares, “The director and team had seen my earlier work and felt I fit the role perfectly. Viveka reached out and asked me to audition, and here I am.”
Kaajal shared, ‘I had one day off from shooting, so I went straight to the Mysuru Palace. It’s truly amazing. Even though it was my second time in two and a half years, it never fails to captivate me. The fact that they built something so incredible with such limited technology is just mind-blowing. It’s a must-see for anyone visiting Karnataka. The palace is so well-maintained, you feel its history. The Durbar hall still evokes that royal feeling. The paintings depicting Mysuru Dasara’s history remain stunning, transporting us back to its golden age.’
