Rakshit Shetty To Star In His Directorial Return, Richard Anthony - Lord Of The Sea

Bengaluru, July 11, 2021: After making his directorial debut with the 2014 Kannada film Ulidavaru Kandanthe, Rakshit Shetty took a break from directing films. Although he has been busy with acting commitments, Rakshit has often mentioned that he has been working on the script of his next, and now, there's the official confirmation. ## The star actor will be making his directorial comeback after almost 7 years with "Richard Anthony - Lord Of The Sea". He has written the script and will also be playing the lead role as Richard Anthony. The movie will be produced by Vijay Kiragandur under their banner Hombale Films. It is Hombale Films' 10th movie. ## Speaking about the film, Rakshit said, "When I was making Ulidavaru Kandante, I didn't have an idea that there would be a prequel or sequel to it. One thing that people did tell me, though, was that they wanted to know more about its central character, Richie. I know there are many unanswered questions in Ulidavaru Kandante. This film will be more linear in its narrative and can be termed as both a prequel and sequel of sorts. The universe somehow made my next directorial venture about Richie". ## "I had gone to Goa to write this story. I know people have been waiting for me to announce my next directorial project. As I began writing, I began to visualize it and the entire process excited me. I have finished the script, but I plan on doing a couple more drafts. Meanwhile, I also have Sapta Sagaradaache Ello to finish, but I have time to complete those drafts and get everything in place before we begin filming in January", he added. ## It is a crime drama film that will go on floors in January next year. The movie will also have returning characters from the earlier film. The music will be scored by B Ajaneesh Loknath who also composed the music for Shetty's directorial debut. ## Will his dream and destiny meet each other?Catch the Glimpse of our next, #RichardAnthony - Lord of the sea: https://t.co/4Mw78vd82O@hombalefilms @rakshitshetty @VKiragandur @HombaleGroup @RichiIsBack #RakshitShetty #Hombale10 pic.twitter.com/akjGsjjzXG— Hombale Films (@hombalefilms) July 11, 2021 ## Stay tuned...

Yuvarathnaa Actor Puneeth Rajkumar Questioned Government Over 50% Occupancy In Theatres

In a view of the rise of the covid-19 cases, the Karnataka government has decided to take the necessary actions to control the situation and announced some stringent guidelines which came into effect yesterday. As per these new guidelines, only 50% of the seating capacity in movie theatres will be allowed, which has certainly come as a big shocker to the owners of movie theatres, producers, and actors.## On April 2nd, Puneeth Rajkumar starrer "Yuvarathnaa" was released and doing very well at the box office across all the theaters of Karnataka. However, with new guidelines for theaters, the viewership of Yuvarathnaa will surely get affected. Yesterday, Puneeth Rajkumar and director Santosh Ananddram, came live on Facebook and urged the state government to withdraw the 50% occupancy rule in theatres. ## Puneeth questioned the government as to why the stringent rules are just for movie theatres. "When we see, in election campaign meetings, people everywhere gathering, but we can't see any such rules there, why it is only for us?" the actor asked. ## Director Santosh said, "Without giving any hint, or information if such decisions are taken then where should the producers go? We have just released our film and it is really doing well. Now, what will happen to us?" He also made a point that "All the necessary precautions like wear face masks and sanitizing hands will be followed strictly". ## Yuvarathnaa did well and earned 10.05 crores gross on its opening day. It simultaneously releases in Telugu and Kannada. Produced by Vijay Kiragandur under the banner of Hombale Films, the movie also stars Sayyeshaa Saigal, Prakash Raj, Sonu Gowda, Avinash, and Dhananjay in key roles. ## Stay tuned...
