One of the biggest talking points among fans is Raj B. Shetty’s character.

This secrecy has also made for an even greater sense of curiosity about the film’s promotion.
South Indian Cinema is also one of the few Indian cinemas to tap cross-industry talent.
Raj B. Shetty is the manifestation of a greater collaboration of the Kannada and Tamil film industries.
Few actors have successfully crossed language lines in recent years, and so audiences from different regions have come to know about talented and diverse actors.
