It is a challenge between a journalist and a cop in this narrative based film ‘Anamadeya Ashok Kumar’. Anamadeya meaning unknown – it is a big question for the audience who is Ashok Kumar!
Apparently the firebrand journalist role is played by senior actor Kishore Kumar while Harshil Kaushik is a cop who enters in to an argument after the murder of a noted lawyer in the film.
This film directed by Sagar Kumar making waves through its teaser and trailer. It is hitting the silver screen on 7th of February.
“Anamadeya Ashok Kumar”, produced by Nirmala Kumar and Ramya Sagar Kumar under the banner SKN Films, co-produced by Kishore Kumar and directed by Sagar Kumar.
Originally an IT employee, I have directed a few short films. This is my first film on the big screen. Some crime incidents that took place in the country and a book written by a former police officer Dr DV Guruprasad are the inspiration for the story of this film. This is a story that takes place from six in the evening to six in the morning. It is also a story that takes place around the murder of a famous lawyer. I and Benny Thomas have written the screenplay. Kishore Kumar appears in the role of a journalist and Harshil Kaushik in the role of a circle inspector. Sudheendra Nair, Kantaraj Kaddipudi, Veeresh and others are in the star cast director Sagar Kumar explained at the media briefing after the trailer and song screening of the film on Wednesday morning at SRV Theater.
Actor Kishore Kumar said that he liked the story told by Sagar Kumar, I have acted as a journalist in this film. “Anonymous” means someone without a name. The director has not given away the secret of who “Anonymous Ashok Kumar” is in our film. We should know who it is by watching the film. We all know the current situation of the Kannada film industry. However, the production and release of films has not decreased. There is no doubt that the audience will appreciate a film with good content. While the big films have opening and avenues for market this kind of content driven cinema should get audience encouragement. The situation of Kishore Kumar in the film is such that it is difficult to judge whether he is victim, witness or criminal. He is happy for the share of risk (part of investment) and we are like small farmers. It is audience who should support the honesty and sincerity of the making urged Kishore Kumar.
Talking about his role, actor Harshil Kaushik said that it was a pleasure to act alongside Kishore. As a circle inspector in the film the film focus on the ideology fight throughout. He immensely appreciated the humble attitudes of Kishore Kumar. This is a film with one night happening after the break of the news a high profile lawyer is murdered.
Actors Veeresh, Sneha Sharma, Gagana, Kantharaj Kaddipudi, Deepak, music director Azad, cinematographer Sunil Honalli, editor Yesu, and distributors of Janani Pictures Kunal and Ravichandran also addressed the media.
The film Anamadeya Ashok Kumar has a kicker ‘Justice is a matter of perspective’.
