The Malayalam film, Oru Adaar Love was the first to get a simultaneous release in Kannada back in February. Now, the Tamil film, Kanchana 3, written, directed by, and starring Raghava Lawrence, follows suit. The dubbed version of the Tamil film will get a simultaneous release in Kannada. This is the fourth instalment of the Muni series. It is co-produced by Sun Pictures and will hit theatres on April 19.

Kanchana 3 features Vedhika, a known face in Kannada as one of the female leads, while Kabir Duhan Singh plays the villain. It also features Oviya, who made her Kannada debut in Yash-starrer Kirataka. Kovai Sarala, Manobala and Soori are also part of the cast.

Interestingly, two instalments of the Muni series were remade in Kannada. Kanchana and Kanchana 2 were remade as Kalpana and Kalpana 2, respectively, both starring Upendra.

Kanchana 3’s music is scored by Jesse Samuel, Bharath, Sai Bharath, Saravedi Saran, Raj Thillaiyampalam and Kapilan Kugavel, and the film’s cinematography is by Vetri.

Interestingly, Raghava Lawrence will direct the Hindi remake of the film, which stars Akshay Kumar.
