From AK 47 to AK 56 - AN UPGRADE, FINALLY

Kannada movie Director N Omprakash Rao has reached a new milestone in his career. Shooting for his 25th film as director, AK 56 started on Monday, September 14. He has roped in Siddanth and Nikitha for the lead roles. Rao had directed the kannada film AK 47 exactly 10 years ago in 1999.

Known for his big-budget kannada action films, Rao is making it clear that his new film too is a high-octane extravaganza. Defying the cost cutting measures of some producers, he has gone ahead and launched a 25-page invitation in the form of a book for AK 56. Siddanth has appeared in only one film, Minchu, before.

Rao has hit kannada films like Lockup Death, AK 47, Kalasipalya, Huchcha, among others to his credit. Of late he has been accused of making movies plagiarised from different language films. But he would candidly admit that he was indeed making films that way. Later, he promised that he would only make original films only to break it. It is not known if AK 56 has various sources, though the credit for the story has been given to D Manohar.
