’s Crystal Paark Cinemas — one that he is excited to be presenting. “After

#Chamak

and

Ayogya

, both of which were commercial flicks set against different backdrops — one in the urban IT sector and the other in a village — I was quite enthused by the subject of the Birbal Trilogy. This is a mystery thriller, in which the protagonist, played by Srinivas, is an advocate chasing leads on a case, which almost makes him a detective as well. I would classify it as a Kannada film that has been made like an English thriller and would, therefore, be the ‘next level’ as far as filmmaking is concerned,” says Chandrashekhar.
The filmmaker adds that what drew him to the project was that it was different from his earlier movies. “The objective of my banner is to make clean entertainers that offer something fresh to audiences and are not formulaic,” says Chandrashekhar, adding that the film will hit nearly 120 screens across Karnataka and rest of India, with an offshore release a week later.
