Landlord is an upcoming Kannada-language film starring Duniya Vijay in a powerful lead role, directed by Jadesh K. Hampi, the writer behind Katera. Produced under the Sarathi Films banner by Hemanth Gowda K.S. and K.V. Satyaprakash, the film is slated for release during Dasara or Deepavali 2025, adding festive fervor to its intense narrative.

Set against a rural backdrop, Landlord explores themes of land ownership, self-reliance, and the socio-political dynamics of village life. The story revolves around a protagonist who challenges the status quo, advocating for education and dignity in a system dominated by feudal control. The film delves into the idea of “independent land” and how the hero’s vision sparks a revolution among the oppressed.

The cast includes Rachita Ram as the female lead and Ritanya, Duniya Vijay’s daughter, making her acting debut. The ensemble promises strong performances that reflect the emotional and ideological weight of the story. The music rights have been acquired by Anand Audio, with the soundtrack expected to be a highlight, especially the background score which the team claims will elevate the film’s intensity.

With post-production in full swing, Landlord is shaping up to be a socially charged drama with mass appeal. Combining action, emotion, and a message of empowerment, the film aims to resonate with audiences across Karnataka. It’s not just a story—it’s a statement about identity, resistance, and reclaiming one’s rightful place.
