Today, Yash is known to the world as the might Rocky Bhai. But, before that, he became a superstar in the Kannada film industry. Googly was one of the successful films that showcased his acting prowess. Now, producer Mahesh Danannavar has secured the remake rights of Googly in Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi and other north Indian languages. The film, directed by Pavan Wadeyar, features Anant Nag and Sadhu Kokila in lead roles.
Mahesh Danannavar said, "I have close ties with the Kannada film industry and have followed Yash's career closely and seen him grow from strength to strength to the phenomenon he is today posting the success of the KGF franchise. This film depicts him in an off-beat romantic avatar and I feel, audiences who have not seen the Kannada version will enjoy different versions of the story in different languages." Opening up about the cast and crew, he said, "We will soon make a more detailed announcement but this is truly an exciting time for all makers. Actors, producers, and storytellers are now truly consolidating various industries into one powerful entity called the Indian film industry where we can collaborate across regions and create content that transcends all barriers. This film will be a perfect example of this synergy."
