Taking no break, Krishna is now getting ready to start the next project in January 2020. He confirms that the film is based on a real story, but refrains from giving out any further details, except that he is excited about working on a new genre compared to his previous films --  Gajakesari, Hebbuli, and Pailwaan.

“This is an entirely new subject from my end, and also for Nikhil, “ says the director, adding, “I am trying to come up with a different style of narration, which is making it interesting. Meanwhile, Nikhil is undergoing a transformation and is getting ready for the character.”

The team is also in the process of finalising on the cast and crew, and is said to be looking for a heroine, 
Lyca Productions has been associated with films such as Rajinikanth starrer 2.0, and the upcoming Indian 2, starring Kamal Haasan. This will be their venture in Kannada.
