After a strong performance at the box-office, action-packed Kannada film Bagheera is reportedly set for an OTT debut. The film, which had a successful theatrical run during the Diwali season, focuses on the story of an IPS officer who takes justice into his own hands. After its impressive performance against popular Bollywood releases like Singham Returns and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Bagheera is now moving towards a digital platform to reach a wider audience.
When and where to see Bagheera
According to a report in OTTPlay, Netflix has acquired the rights to stream Bagheera. The report states that this is a noteworthy development as it becomes the platform’s first Kannada film acquisition. The report further suggests that the film may be available for streaming on OTT platforms as early as December. That said, the exact release date is still unconfirmed. Previously, Netflix only had Hindi-language versions of Kannada films, such as the KGF series and Kantara, both produced by Hombale Films, which is also produced by Bagheera.
Bagheera official trailer and plot
The trailer of Bagheera introduces the audience to the tense story led by Vedant, an acclaimed gold medalist and dedicated IPS officer. He finds himself challenged by citywide corruption and criminal networks that thwart his official duties. To bring justice to his city, Vedant adopts the alter ego of the vigilante “Bagheera”, who sets out on a dangerous mission to eliminate organized crime.
Bagheera cast and crew
The film stars Sriimurali in the lead role, supported by Rukmini Vasanth, Prakash Raj, Sudha Rani and Achyuth Kumar, who add depth to the entertaining story. Dr. Suri’s directorial vision is complemented by Prashanth Neel’s screenplay, with Vijay Kiragandur producing under the Hombale Films banner.
Welcome
Achieved important achievement. Bagheera, which grossed ₹17.13 crore within nine days of release, has been a standout film in the Kannada film industry, attracting a dedicated audience despite high-budget Bollywood competition from big releases like Singham and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
