Landlord is directed by Jadesh Kumar Hampi, who co-wrote the 2023 hit film Kaatera, starring Darshan. Jadesh Kumar has also written the screenplay of the film, with M M Shrikantha contributing the dialogue. Kaatera was also set in rural Karnataka of the past, and it would be interesting to see how Jadesh Kumar has created the world of Landlord. The film also has music by B.

Action-packed rural drama
The 2026 Kannada film takes us to rural Karnataka of the 1980s. The period drama is high on raw action sequences as the landlord’s henchmen and the villagers clash. From the innocent villagers to the feudal practices of the era, Landlord gives us a rustic portrayal from a not-so-distant past. If you are someone who enjoys rural drama, then Landlord should be on your watchlist.
