Bangalore Days Director And National Award Winning Writer Anjali Menon To Direct KRG Studios' Tamil Film

KRG Studios, a film production and distribution company rooted in Kannada cinema, announced its first collaboration with Anjali Menon. Known for her iconic works, like the acclaimed Bangalore Days, Manjadikuru, Ustad Hotel, Koode and more recently Wonder Women, Anjali Menon brings her unique storytelling prowess to a special Tamil feature film in partnership with KRG.

As KRG expands its footprint from film distribution to comprehensive film production, this collaboration with Anjali Menon marks a big moment for the company. KRG gained early acclaim with “Rathnan Prapancha,” directed by Rohit Padaki and starring Dhananjay. The film, released directly on Prime Video India, garnered a lot of praise. Following this success, KRG continued its journey with the release of “Gurudev Hoysala” in March 2023.

Speaking of this collaboration, director Anjali Menon said, “I am looking forward to the collaboration with KRG Studios as we share the commitment to create engaging movies built from our cultures with world class production values. Audiences are connecting beyond language boundaries to the diverse story landscapes of India, and we are keen to take them on cinematic journeys that are memorable, entertaining and thought provoking – all at the same time.”

Adding to her thoughts, producer and co-founder of KRG, Karthik Gowda said, “Our collaboration with Anjali Menon signifies a new chapter for KRG, where the essence of storytelling takes precedence. We believe in the magic of cinema, and this partnership exemplifies our dedication to crafting tales that resonate across diverse audiences and languages. Our journey in this direction began when my dear friend and seasoned entertainment executive Vijay Subramaniam and I were discussing the power of narrative/concept based stories and the influence they have on customers when executed well. I am grateful that he too saw our potential and decided to collaborate with us as a mentor and co-producer. Collectively and with the help of like-minded folks like Chaitanya Hegde of Tulsea, we are able to build such partnerships which we hope will be special and above all to the customers we serve.”
