Kannada Thriller 'Elumale' Heads to Zee5 in October 2025

The Kannada romantic thriller Elumale is gearing up for its digital release on Zee5 on October 17, 2025. Directed by Punit Rangaswamy and produced by Tharun Sudhir and Atlanta Nagendra, the film features a talented ensemble cast including Raanna, Priyanka Achar, Jagapathi Babu, Kishore, and TS Nagabharana.

Set against the rugged borderlands of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Elumale traces the journey of Harish (Raanna), a cab driver from Chamarajanagar, and Revathi (Priyanka Achar), a privileged young woman from Salem. What starts as a tender cross-border romance quickly spirals into a web of crime, law enforcement chases, and political intrigue. As the two lovers struggle to protect their bond amid rising chaos, unexpected turns and mounting tensions drive the story toward a thrilling, edge-of-the-seat finale.

Speaking about his role, actor Raanna said, "Harish is a simple, boy-next-door character, and playing him was a journey that felt very personal to me. From working on the local slang to understanding his backstory, the process was challenging and rewarding. What makes Elumale special is that it has been made with a lot of heart, and now, with its digital premiere, I hope even more audiences connect with Harish's story."
