Arjun Janya, known for his music, steps into the director’s chair with his ambitious debut project 45, a multistarrer featuring the iconic Shivarajkumar, Upendra, and Raj B Shetty. Produced by Ramesh Reddy, this film has already stirred excitement with its grand scale and all-star cast.

The latest buzz surrounds the film’s massive climax, which is currently being filmed at a specially constructed 2-acre set in Jigani. To be shot over the next 40 days, this climactic sequence will feature an epic action block choreographed by well-known stunt master Ravi Varma. With 100 fighters kicking off the sequence and the star trio—Shivarajkumar, Upendra, and Raj B Shetty—joining in later, the makers are trying to ensure that the climax turns out to be spectacular.

The production team is sparing no expense in their attempt to confirm that every detail is perfect. Arjun Janya, while keeping the character details of all the actors under wraps, recently revealed a close-up look of Shivarajkumar. The makers also shot an elaborate song sequence on a sprawling set in Silicon City, featuring thousands of junior artists and dancers. This sequence was captured using cutting-edge technology like Mocobot and rope cameras.

45 is being made under the Suraj Productions banner, with Kaustubha Mani as the female lead and Satya Hegde behind the camera.
