The final song in Prashant Neel’s directorial KGF, starring Yash, will be shot in the coming days. Speculations are rife that this track, a retro medley, will feature a south Indian heroine. Names doing the rounds include Tamannaah Bhatia, Kajal Aggarwal, Raai Laxmi and Nora Fatehi. “Big names from the South have been approached, and many of them have shown interest to be part of the project. While talks are on with a few of them, it is just a matter of days before someone is finalised,” our source tells us.
On August 7, we are told, the makers will reveal the name of the heroine who will be sharing screen space with Yash in the special song.
A multilingual film made under Hombale films, KGF is a period drama set in the 70s, which will see Yash foraying into different industries. Apart from Kannada, KGF will be released in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi.
The film, which is in its post-production stage, has model-turned-actor Srinidhi Shetty playing the female lead. It also features Achyuth Kumar, B Suresha, and Vasishta Simha. The technical team comprises cinematographer Bhuvan Gowda, music director Ravi Basrur and art director Shivakumar.
As Yash mentioned in his previous intereviw with CE, KGF is all set to be the ‘pride of every Kannadiga’.
