Bachelor Party

Debutant director Abhijit Mahesh’s comedy about two friends ending up in Bangkok after night of drunken debauchery at another pal’s bachelor party. From figuring out how and why they reached Bangkok, to finding their way back, while also hot on the trail of someone that should not be in the same city, forms the crux of the tale that was produced by Rakshit Shetty. The film stars Diganth in the lead, along with Loose Mada Yogi, Siri Ravikumar, Balaji Manohar, Achyuth Kumar.

12th Fail

It’s been more than two months since the Vikrant Massey-led 12th Fail came to OTT in its Hindi original version, a time in which Kannada audiences have repeatedly made requests for the dubbed version to be made available. The demand arose, as the film’s theatrical release included a Kannada-dubbed version, so netizens wondered why it was not part of the OTT package back in December.

Directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, 12th Fail is the true-life story of Manoj Kumar Sharma’s journey from failing in grade 12 to cracking the prestigious UPSC exam and becoming a high-ranking IPS official.

When they are cornered and required to produce Ricky, they decide to hire a washed-up actor instead.
