Upendra is fit, focused, and currently juggling a series of exciting projects. While announcements continue to pour in about his roles across multiple languages—including the Tamil film Coolie, where he shares screen space with superstar Rajinikanth, and #RAPO22, Ram Pothineni’s upcoming film—the actor remains equally committed to Kannada cinema.
On the home front, Upendra is gearing up for the release of his much-anticipated 45, directed by AP Arjun and produced under Suraj Productions. This project has already generated buzz among fans and is set to hit theatres on August 15. He also has Buddhivanta 2, currently under production. Alongside this, he will soon begin work on Bhargava, directed by Naganna and backed by producer Surappa Babu.
Adding to this lineup, Upendra revealed he's close to signing two more Kannada films. “I will be working with Navaneeth, the director of Karva and Choomantar for a new film produced by Raghu. It’s a very interesting subject and currently in the preparation stage,” he shares.
He also confirmed that talks are underway with Choomantar producer Tarun Shivappa for a project. “Tarun and I are in discussions, and we plan to collaborate on a project soon,” Upendra adds.
It will be interesting to see what kind of subjects and collaborations emerge from these upcoming ventures.
