Also known as Sandalwood, Kannada cinema refers to feature films made in the South Indian language of Kannada. It is based in the city of Bangalore, Karnataka. Considered the smallest in terms of market potential among the big five film industries (with others being Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam).
All credit to Hombale Films, the production company behind the legendary KGF series and Kantara. Kannada cinema is now receiving global recognition for their outstanding stories, music, and cast performances. Appreciating the same, the central government awarded a record four awards at the 70th National Film Awards.
Firstly, Rishab Shetty was called the ‘Best Actor’ for his performance in Kantara (2022); the film also bagged the ‘Best Feature Film Providing Wholesome Entertainment’. Besides this, KGF: Chapter 2 received the award for ‘Best Kannada Film’; for the same, action choreographers Anbariv got the well-deserved ‘Best Action Direction’ award. What a day for Kannada cinema!
