The much-anticipated Kannada film Chowkidar, directed by Chandrashekhar Bandiappa of Rathavara fame, continues to create a buzz across social media and movie circles. After the impactful teaser and intriguing title, it’s now a soul-stirring song that’s captured the hearts of audiences.
The recently released father-son bonding anthem from Chowkidar has gone viral, crossing over 1 million views in record time. The song, rich in emotional depth and lyrical brilliance, has significantly heightened audience expectations for the film.
Penned by Kaviratna V. Nagendra Prasad, the lyrics eloquently celebrate the power and sacrifice of a father — each line echoing the silent strength and unconditional love of a paternal figure. Lending his soulful voice to the song is celebrated playback singer Vijay Prakash, whose emotive rendition ensures the song resonates deeply with listeners.
Adding to the magic is Sachin Basrur’s compelling music composition, which blends emotion with melody to create an unforgettable musical experience.
The film stars Pruthvi Ambaar in the lead role, known for his soft, romantic characters in past films. However, in Chowkidar, he is set to make a striking transformation with a mass look, showcasing a new side of his acting prowess. Veteran actor Sai Kumar plays the role of his father, bringing gravitas to this emotional narrative.
The film also features Dhanya Ramkumar, granddaughter of Kannada cinema legend Dr. Rajkumar, opposite Pruthvi Ambaar, adding an exciting generational legacy to the project. Accomplished actresses Sudharani and Shwetha are also part of the stellar ensemble cast.
Produced by Kallahalli Chandrashekhar, with Vidyadevi as co-producer, Chowkidar is being released in multiple languages, reflecting its wide-reaching appeal. Lyrics for other songs in the film have been written by V. Nagendra Prasad and Pramod Maravanthe.
With its heart-touching storytelling, emotional music, and powerful performances, Chowkidar is shaping up to be more than just an action entertainer — it’s a celebration of the unsung heroes in our lives: our fathers.
As audiences eagerly await its release, the film’s message and music have already struck a powerful emotional chord, proving that some bonds — like that of a father and child — are truly timeless.
