Kannada superstar Kichcha Sudeep and director Anup Bhandari have teamed up for Billa Ranga Baasha. The pan-Indian magnum opus will be produced by K Niranjan Reddy and Chaithanya Reddy under the banner Primeshow Entertainment. The production house had bankrolled HanuMan, the blockbuster Telugu film starring Tejja Sajja and directed by Prashanth Varma.

Anup had previously made the action thriller Vikrant Rona (2022) with Sudeep. The film was announced on the account of Sudeep’s birthday on Monday (September 02, 2024). The makers released a concept video which introduces the story set in future. Set in 2209 AD, the Statue of Liberty, Eiffel Tower, and the Taj Mahal are all destroyed and one man seems to have conquered everything.

“Niranjan Reddy wanted to collaborate with me after Vikrant Rona and we met before during the post production of HanuMan. When I told that my next will also be with Kichcha Sudeep and narrated the premise of Billa Ranga Baasha and the world it is set, he was thrilled. They wanted to mount their next project on a big scale,” said Anup Bhandari.
