The Yash-led film proved to be a blockbuster and opened new avenues for Kannada cinema. The banner is also behind Salaar, starring Prabhas and Shruti Haasan.

Hombale Films’ latest offering, Kantara, opened in cinemas on Friday, September 30. The film, starring Rishab Shetty and Kishore, has received rave reviews with critics praising the production values.
