Actor Thrigun, renowned for his versatile performances in Tamil and Telugu cinema, is all set to make a grand entrance into the Kannada film industry with his upcoming movie, “Lineman.” Under the adept direction of V Raghu Shastry, this bi-lingual venture is not only aimed at the Kannada audience but will simultaneously make its mark in the Telugu film industry as well. The narrative backdrop of “Lineman” is intriguingly set in the rustic locales of Mandya, promising a story deeply rooted in the region’s ethos.
In a recent exciting development, the makers of “Lineman” took to social media to unveil the first look and motion poster of the film, which instantly captured the imagination of cinema enthusiasts. The promotional materials have skillfully managed to pique interest, showcasing elements that are quintessential to the life and challenges of a lineman. The first look poster, in particular, is creatively designed, featuring two electricity poles. Thrigun is depicted holding a ladder, an emblematic tool of the lineman’s trade, while key characters from the film are ingeniously integrated into the design, hinting at the intertwined lives and narratives the film is set to explore.
The anticipation for “Lineman” has been building steadily, with audiences eagerly awaiting its release. The film is slated to hit the theatres on March 15th, with simultaneous releases in both Telugu and Kannada languages. This project not only marks Thrigun’s foray into Sandalwood but also stands as a testament to the seamless blending of regional cinema, offering a narrative that transcends linguistic barriers. As the release date approaches, “Lineman” is expected to draw crowds to the theatres, offering them a glimpse into the life of a lineman, set against the picturesque yet challenging backdrop of Mandya.
