Sandalwood’s Attempt At Different and Bold Movies in the Past Few Years Kannada Article

1. Kendasampige

Though the movie has the regular boy-falls-in-love with girl scenario the way it is executed deserves special mention. This is one of director Suri’s finest endeavors and the movie has something more to offer than the love element. The technical team also did their best in this movie which had Vicky and Manvitha (who are new faces) in the lead roles. There is a tinge of realism in the movie and the filmmaker should be appreciated for that.

2. Lucia

Lucia is Sandalwood’s first “crowd-funded” film and has a novel subject. It revolves around the story of a person in coma and the reason behind it.

5. First Rank Raju

The movie oozes freshness in terms of telling about the contemporary education system in a realistic manner. But the significant thing is that the entertainment element is not gone for a toss in this film.
