It’s been known for a while that at least three upcoming PRK Studios projects were headed for direct-to-OTT release on Amazon Prime Videos. The titles included D Satya Prakash’s Man of the Match, Likith Shetty’s Family Pack and the Danish Sait-starrer One Cut Two Cut. This had been announced well before Puneeth’s passing, but it now seems that the streaming platform has a release plan ready for these films.
In a statement released today, they said, “Honouring the creative prowess of Late Puneeth Rajkumar, Prime Video today announced a slate of three new Kannada movies with PRK Productions which includes Man of the Match, One Cut Two Cut and Family Pack, to be available exclusively for Prime Members worldwide. Paying a humble tribute to the legend, Prime Video will also make five of his most memorable movies— Law, French Biryani, Kavaludaari, Mayabazaar & Yuvarathnaa, available to watch for free, even for non-Prime members, for 1-month starting February 1.”
While Man of the Match is a modern-day reflection of human emotions and social challenges starring some of the finest upcoming actors like Atharva Prakash K Jayaram, Dharmanna Kadur and Nataraj, One Cut Two Cut brings the story of a day when everything went haywire in a mad-cap comedy featuring Danish Sait, Prakash Belavadi and Samyukta Hornad. Family Pack is a romantic comedy starring Likith Shetty and Amrutha Iyengar in lead roles. With these three movies, Prime Video aims to carry forward Puneeth Rajkumar’s legacy.
