Nani To Team Up With HIT 3 Director Sailesh Kolanu For A Comedy Entertainer

Hit: The Third Case, the latest film in the popular HIT franchise, is doing well at the box office and earning praise from both critics and viewers. Directed by Sailesh Kolanu, the film stars Nani and Srinidhi Shetty and was released in theatres on May 1. The movie’s success has inspired Nani to team up with the director again—but this time, for a very different kind of project.

Nani Collaborates With Sailesh Kolanu Again

At a recent success meet for HIT 3, Nani announced that his next film with Sailesh Kolanu would not be another thriller but a comedy entertainer. The actor shared his excitement with News18 and said, “My next film with Sailesh Kolanu will be a comedy entertainer. He has hilarious comic timing. You can’t believe it because, until now, he has made mostly crime thrillers. Sailesh has already told me an idea that is brilliant and hilarious.”
