Actor Sudarshan Rangaprasad is venturing into directing with a new fictional folklore project, and he recently filmed a teaser for it. Having a background in theatre production and standup comedy, he has always had a desire to be behind the camera. He decided to pursue this after receiving positive feedback from industry experts on a specific story he worked on. The project is a psychological-horror thriller that challenges producers to break away from traditional narratives and be open to something innovative. Sudarshan believes that introducing fresh ideas is essential for the growth of Kannada cinema. He emphasizes that the industry's future hinges on taking risks and embracing new concepts. Without this, Kannada films may struggle to resonate with audiences, especially amid competition from OTT platforms. Sudarshan praises the teams in the industry that have dared to deviate from the conventional filmmaking approach, producing remarkable content and leading the way for progress. Building a team of like-minded individuals is crucial, and Sudarshan feels fortunate to have the right team supporting him in his creative endeavors.
