Director Gurutej Shetty and actor Kiran Raj, who previously made waves with their collaboration in Rani, are teaming up once again. This time, Kiran Raj takes on a bold new avatar as “Jockey”, galloping into the spotlight on horseback.
The film’s technical team brings back the trusted crew from Rani — Raghavendra B Kolar handles cinematography, Satish leads the art direction, and Umesh R B takes care of editing.
Produced by Bharathi Satyanarayan under the banner of Golden Gate Studios, Jockey 42 is a full-fledged commercial entertainer set against the adrenaline-filled backdrop of horse racing.
The shoot will span locations in Bengaluru, Mysuru, and abroad. The recently unveiled title and poster have already captured attention — featuring Kiran Raj as a jockey atop a horse, with rolls of money beneath its hooves, powerfully reinforcing the racing theme and title Jockey 42.
With a mix of action, romance, family sentiment, and humour, director Gurutej Shetty promises a cinematic experience that appeals across the board. The film is set to go on floors on May 15.
