Sandalwood is not strange to fans going overboard to celebrate their star’s upcoming releases.
But with Sudeep’s next release, his tech savvy fans has up the ante for the rest of the star fandom in the industry.
While the fans are following the regular drill of showing up with huge garlands and performing milk abhishekas on the star’s cutout banners, a group of Sudeep fans will soon be coming out with a game.
The team is in the process of making a 3D game of the star’s upcoming film, Hebbuli. Visual graphic artist, Santhosh DV, who is part of a startup company along with his 13-member team has come up with a game titled Hebbuli, which they plan to launch just before the film’s release.
“As a fan of Sudeep anna, I wanted to do something special for his film and so I, along with my friends decided to create this adventure with caricatures of Sudeep,” says Santhosh.
The team has invested 25 lakh on the game. “We are not considering the money invested. We have put in our best effort to bring out this adventure game,” Santhosh tells City Express.
The game will be available on Google Play store for two months following its upload.
Meanwhile, Hebbuli directed by S Krishna is left with just a day of patch work, and will be out with the first copy soon. The film under SRV Productions in association with Umapathy Pictures is gearing for a Shivaratri release, which is likely on February 23.
