For the unversed, Sudha Kongara made her directorial debut in 2008 with the Telugu film ‘Andhra Andagadu’ and then helmed the Tamil feature ‘Drohi’. She got the Filmfare Award for Best Director in Tamil for her work on ‘Irudhi Suttru’ (‘Saala Khadoos’ in Hindi). Sudha Kongara then rose to prominence with her film ‘Soorarai Pottru’, which is based on the life of Air Deccan founder Captain GR Gopinath.

Hombale films, on the other hand, are most remembered for making the visual spectacles ‘KGF: Chapter 1’ and ‘KGF: Chapter 2’, which were pan-India releases. Both films did exceptional business all over. ‘KGF 2’ has gone ahead to become one of the highest-grossing Indian films ever, and the business is still going strong with every passing day.
