The year 2022 has been the name of Kannada films. Pan India films like ‘KGF Chapter 2’, ‘777 Charlie’ and ‘Kantara’ outshined Bollywood films not only worldwide but also in the Hindi belt, and it seems Sandalwood is determined to do something similar in 2023. The first pan India Kannada film for 2023 has been announced, which is going to hit the screens with the intention of competing with Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback film ‘Pathan’.
‘Kranti’ coming on 26 January
We are talking about the Kannada film ‘Kranti’, in which one of the biggest superstars of Kannada films, Darshan, will be seen in the lead role. The release date of this film has been announced on Tuesday. According to him, this film will be released in theatres on 26 January 2023. This will be Darshan’s first pan India film, whose writer and director is V. Harikrishna, and he has also given music in this film.
Darshan announces release date
On Tuesday, Darshan announced the film’s release date on social media and wrote, “Wishing Kannada Rajyotsava to all the proud Kannada people around the world. Kannada is true, Kannada is eternal. Our film ‘Kranti’ is near you on 26th January. Coming. May your love and blessings be with you always.”

Chash with Shahrukh’s Pathan
Darshan’s film ‘Kranti’ will have a direct clash with Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathan. Actually, Shahrukh Khan’s comeback film ‘Pathan’ is coming in theatres on January 25, a day before ‘Kranti’. Since the fans of Shahrukh Khan are eagerly waiting for ‘Pathan’. At the same time, in 2022, the content of Kannada films has won the hearts of the audience of the Hindi belt. In such a situation, it can be clearly assumed that if ‘Kranti’ gets better response from critics and has good mouth publicity, then it can compete with ‘Pathan’ at the box office.
‘Pathan’ made in 200 crores
Talking about ‘Pathan’, this film directed by Siddharth Anand is produced by Aditya Chopra under his banner of Yash Raj Films. Made on a budget of around Rs 200 crore, the film will also feature John Abraham and Deepika Padukone in pivotal roles. On the other hand, apart from Darshan, Rachita Ram and Ravichandran will also have an important role in ‘Kranti’. The film will be released in Kannada as well as Hindi and Telugu.
