Ganesh has come a long way since Mungaru Male! I'm happy to see him experiment with different genres. Mythological fantasy with a guardian lineage theme sounds unique. Will definitely watch in theatres to support Kannada cinema. 🙌
I hope the story doesn't get too preachy like some mythological films. Ganesh is a good actor but the teaser didn't show much of the plot. Let's wait and see if 'Pinaka' lives up to the hype. #FingersCrossed
People Media Factory usually does big productions, so expecting good visuals. Plus Gowra Hari's music is always a treat. Just wish they promoted it better - many people don't even know about this film. 🤔
Interesting to see an Indian mythological film! The 'two eras' concept reminds me of some Hollywood movies but executed in our own style. Hope it does well internationally too. All the best to the team! 🌍
I love Ganesh's fan following but I'm a bit skeptical about mythological films in Kannada - they often have weak scripts. Still, the double role angle has me curious. Let's hope Dhananjaya B does justice as a debut director. 🤞
