Wikipedia article
'Kendasampige' is a 2015 Indian Kannada thriller film directed by Duniya Soori and written by Surendranath. It stars newcomers Santhosh Reva (Vikky Varun) and Manvitha Harish in the lead roles, making their debuts with the film. Rajesh Nataranga, Prakash Belawadi and Chandrika feature in supporting roles. The film is a sequel to forthcoming film 'Kaage Bangara'. The plot which is centered on a couple who are framed in a case of crime and are on a run from police, exposes the nexus between the latter and the influential. The road drama was praised for bringing forth a dirty web of drug trade, the mafia, corrupt police officials and a questionable judicial system. The movie is based on a 1996 story by writer Surendranath.
Produced under the banner Parimala Film Factory, the cinematography for the film was done by Satya Hegde and was edited by Deepu S. Kumar. V. Harikrishna composed the film score and the soundtrack.
On 18 December 2015 Kendasampige completed 100 Days run in 5 theaters. Director Soori had initially announced that the film will have a prequel titled 'Kaage Bangara' and a sequel titled 'Black Magic'. But 'Kaage Bangara' was stalled owing to demonetization since the director felt that the storyline he prepared was no more relevant after issue of new currency notes. However, he revived ' Kaage Bangara' after the 2020 movie 'Popcorn Monkey Tiger' which served as a link between 'Kendasampige' and 'Kaage Bangara'.
