Streaming platform Voot Select is all set to premiere the highly anticipated Kannada comedy-drama, ‘Petromax’, on August 26.
Written and directed by Vijaya Prasad, ‘Petromax’ is produced by Sudhir KM and Rajashekar KG, and stars Sathish Ninasam, Hariprriya, Nagabhushan, Karunya Ram, Achyut Kumar, Suman Ranganathan, and Arun Kumar, UNI reported from New Delhi.
An adult comedy, the film perfectly blends the aspects of family values and relationships to create an entertaining potboiler that reflects the pun intended in the movie’s title, a metaphor for “light and life”.
It revolves around the lives of four orphans, Oodbatti Shivappa, Agarbatti Madappa, Krishnamurthy, and Kavita Krishnamurthy, and their quest to find unconditional love from their parents. Growing up in an orphanage right from their childhood, these four individuals longed for care and compassion from their parents.
As fate would have it, when they start looking for a house, they cross paths with a real estate agent Meenakshi who eventually falls in love with Oodbatti Shivappa and together they start looking for houses. Chronicling the trials and tribulations of a lonely life, the movie outlines the essence of companionship, human relations, and togetherness.
