Explore Business Standard

Kannada star Yash says the intention with his latest action-period drama "KGF" is to match Hollywood style of filmmaking, something which he believes the Kannada industry is capable of.
The film, written and directed by Prashanth Neel, is set in the 70s and 80s era featuring high octane action sequences.
"I always believed our industry has a huge potential. Our intention was not to match Telugu or Hindi films, it is to match Hollywood films. All of us use the same camera, lens or same technicalities. To get the best out of this is our ambition," Yash told reporters.
The actor was speaking at the trailer launch of "KGF" here. The film's Hindi version will be presented by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's Excel Entertainment.
Farhan, who wasn't able to make it to the event, in a video message said he is proud to be a part of the film and "present it to a new audience."
