In an era where film adaptations of novels are increasingly rare, acclaimed writer Poornachandra Tejaswi’s renowned work Jugaari Cross is being brought to the big screen. Director Gurudatta Ganiga, known for his much-anticipated film Karavali, is now set to direct and produce this bold project under his own banner.

The title promo for Jugaari Cross has just been released, putting an end to the suspense around the lead role Raj B Shetty will play the protagonist. The promo, featuring powerful visuals of skulls, blood, and red gemstones, paired with intense background music, has sparked massive buzz and raised expectations for the film. This marks a significant collaboration between Gurudatta and Raj, who had earlier worked together on Karavali. Interestingly, Jugaari Cross has gone on floors even before Karavali’s release, keeping the duo busy.

Raj B Shetty, known for his unique role choices, takes on another challenging character after his standout performances in Su from So and Karavali.
