Shine Shetty is busy promoting his latest film ‘Shankarabharana’, which is all set to hit the screens on the 20th of November. Meanwhile, the trailer of the film has been released recently.
Private buses continue to dominate the coastal and Malnad regions of Karnataka and the story of this film is also set against the backdrop of the coastal region. It explores the struggles of private bus owners who take loans to purchase buses and the challenges faced by drivers in their daily lives, while adding a touch of horror to the narrative. The film had already generated considerable curiosity through its teaser and songs and the newly released trailer has increased the expectations.
In the film, Shine Shetty plays an ordinary man who works as the driver of the Shankarabharana bus. Apart from other characters, the Shankarabharana bus also plays an equally significant role in the film. Going by the recently released trailer, the film appears to be a horror thriller. Sampath Kumar is seen playing the antagonist in the film.
