Shailesh Kolanu, known for his gripping crime thrillers, is hard at work on the fourth instalment of the Hit franchise. The series has already delivered two blockbuster hits, and fans are eagerly awaiting the next chapter. While the hero of Hit 4 was teased in the climax of Hit 2, Kolanu is now focused on developing the story in fresh and innovative ways.
The filmmaker Shailesh Kolanu is exploring crime from new angles, using books on criminal behaviour as references and examining media reports of past crimes in India, Canada, and Australia. Sources reveal Kolanu plans to travel to Canada and Australia in the coming month to gather firsthand insights, working closely with local authorities. The research trip is expected to last around two months, indicating the script will take more time to finalise.
Meanwhile, Tamil star Karthi, who will feature in the film, remains busy with several projects. Filming for Va Vaathayar has concluded, with post-production ongoing and a December release planned. The sequel Sardar 2 has also wrapped shooting, and post-production is in progress for a release next year. Karthi is also involved in Marshall and preparing for Khaidi 2, with dates for Hit 4 expected only after these commitments are complete.
Kolanu’s approach to Hit 4 promises a fresh perspective on crime storytelling, drawing from both local and international events to create a realistic and thrilling narrative. Fans of the franchise can expect an intense exploration of criminal investigations and suspenseful drama when the film eventually releases.
With careful research and meticulous planning, Hit 4 aims to raise the bar for crime thrillers, continuing the legacy of one of India’s most successful thriller franchises.
