"Marriage, child, cinema... Despite everything, Darling Krishna is busy with the production of Love Mocktail-3!"

Darling Krishna has a unique reading of the name actor, director, storyteller and now the man of the family! Krishna, who won the hearts of cinephiles with 'Love Mocktail', is now making a comeback with 'Love Mocktail 3'. But this time his path is more planned and more emotional.

The first part of 'Love Mocktail' was released before the lockdown in 2020. The film, which ran for 42 days in theatres, became hugely popular on OTT as well. Part 2 earned three times more than the previous film. But this success did not immediately jump into the sequel to Dwara Krishna. It took me three-and-a-half years to write Part 3. In the current trend, it is common for several producers to make their films pan-India. But Krishna has clearly said "no" to this. "I am not going to make a pan-India film. I will dub only after winning the film here," he said. Even though the budget is three times higher, they are also using the technique of using money as a beacon.

"I was a bachelor when I was doing 'Love Mocktail'. Now I am married and have a child," says Krishna. The responsibility of the family, the time to take care of the child and the shooting of the movies all combine to demand time and balance. Yet they have adapted everything to creativity. Part 3 will have Milana Nagaraj back in the lead role and most of the previous team will continue. New characters will also be added. "There will be a tour in this film. Location is very important," says Krishna. It is also intended to portray an emotional connection with visuals that are pleasing to the eye.

"I am an accidental director," Krishna says with a smile. Writing a story is a challenge for them. But, they are confident that they can handle all this too. As of now, he doesn't have any other story on his mind and is not considering anything until 'Love Mocktail 3' is completed. Darling Krishna has taken the 'Love Mocktail' franchise to another level with his deep emotion, dedication and artistic vision. Though there is no pan-India strategy, the belief in the story and the use of simplicity in technology shows his true cinematic devotion. The film, which is slated to release in February, is sure to be another loving experience for Kannada lovers.
