Hombale Films, is a Bengaluru-based film production company founded by Vijay Kiragandur with an intent of bringing in a corporate style of filmmaking to an already prosperous South Indian film industry.[1]
History
Hombale Films was founded by Vijay Kiragandur, an entrepreneur from Bangalore. Hombale Films' first production endeavour was the Kannada film Ninnindale in 2014, starring Puneeth Rajkumar. Their next venture was Masterpiece, starring Yash, in 2015. Their third venture Raajakumara was directed by Santhosh Ananddram, and became the top grossing Kannada film at the time. It reportedly grossed more than Rs. 75 crores in the Karnataka box office and was an industry hit.[2][3]
Hombale Films' fourth film was K.G.F: Chapter 1 directed by Prashanth Neel of Ugramm fame. This film was released in five languages across India: Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Hindi. K.G.F: Chapter 1 was very successful at the box office, becoming the first Kannada film to enter the Rs. 200 crore club worldwide, and collected more than 250 crores.[4][5]
Hombale Films' next venture was Yuvarathnaa in 2021, which marked their third collaboration with Puneeth Rajkumar, and second collaboration with director Santhosh Ananddram. Yuvarathnaa released on 1 April 2021 in Kannada and Telugu, and was made available on Amazon Prime Video shortly after due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Yuvarathnaa marked Hombale Films' first foray into music production, under the label Hombale Music.
