Kannada star hero Upendra is popularly known for his out-of-the-box films. He acted in many movies with unique concepts and earned a big fan base in Karnataka and Telugu states. Unlike his on-screen image, he is a very soft-spoken and well-mannered person in real life. But his movies are often crazy and pose a lot of questions to the society. He is now coming up with a film titled ‘UI – The Movie’.
Well-known music label Lahari Music entered into the production business and roped in Upendra as the lead actor. They have teamed up with Venus Entertainments and bankrolled this film which will be readied in Kannada, Telugu, Hindi and Tamil languages. When all the filmmakers in the country are busy cutting teasers for their films he strokes a debate through his first BTS update video. He asked why should they watch movies by looking at the teaser or trailer alone.
This snowballed into a lot of debate within the Industry, audiences and his fans. In the latest video, we can see the fans pressuring Upendra a lot and he finally announces that the taser will be released on 18th September which makes everyone very happy. It is going to be a gift to the fans on Upendra’s birthday and the teaser will be unveiled at Urvashi Theatre in Banglore.
