'Won't be starting anytime soon,' Karthik Gowda on KGF Chapter 3

KGF:Chapter 2 (2022) has already broken every box office record on this planet. The Yash-starrer Kannada film has impressed the audiences with its thrilling action sequences and gripping screenplay. The film, which was second installment of KGF Chapter 1, surpassed the latter in terms of craze, popularity and box office collection.

It was through the post picture credit that people got to know that KGF Chapter 3 is also on the cards. Producer Vijay Kiragandur too, had admitted that the third film in KGF franchise will roll later this year.

However, Executive Producer of the film Karthik Gowda has now put to rest all speculation about KGF Chapter 3. Taking to Twitter on Saturday, Kartik wrote, “The news doing the rounds are all speculation. With a lot of exciting projects ahead of us , we @hombalefilms will not be starting #KGF3 anytime soon. We will let you know with a bang when we start the work towards it."
