Kannada films

, and fans of

lead actor Sudeep

lap up every bit of information that the team lets out. The latest includes a set of fresh images from the film, which also stars Madonna Sebastian (in what will be her Sandalwood debut), Shraddha Das, P Ravi Shankar and Aftab Shivdasani in pivotal roles. The film also sees Ashika Ranganath in a guest role.

In the images, leading man Sudeep can be seen checking the scenes on a monitor, while Aftab reads his lines. Kotigobba 3 was supposed to be a summer release, but with the pandemic throwing all plans into disarray and no word yet on when movie halls can reopen for business, it remains to be seen when the team can schedule the film’s date with audiences.

Kotigobba 3 is the sequel to 2016’s Kotigobba2, which had a fairly good outing at the box office. Kotigobba 3 began rolling in June 2018 in Bengaluru, but also has extensive sequences and action shot in Serbia, Malaysia, Thailand and Poland. Fans of the franchise were treated to a teaser during Maha Shivarathri, which ran into copyright issues and was taken down, only to be re-released later. The lyrical video of the song Akashane Adarisuva was then released in April, which was also well received. Kotigobba 3 has music by Arjun Janya. According to latest reports, the makers are planning to release the movie early next year.
