Rishabh further added, “But a first-time director, with so much planning, is willing to achieve a film on such a large scale, in my opinion, is a big thing in itself. With that said, he has achieved it, and the film is ready, I am watching the trailer now, which has come out very good. My favourites, Shivanna (Shiv Rajkumar) and Uppi sir (Upendra) are the actors who star in it. 45Both roles are fleshed out really well, and it’s exciting to see both on the big screen,
He praised the trailer a lot 45 For its wide appeal and thought-provoking nature, and lauded the film. However, one notable aspect of the video was the exclusion of Raj B Shetty’s name.
