Shilpa Shetty Kundra is all set to make a comeback in Kannada films after almost 18 years with the upcoming film 'KD- The Devil'. She took to Instagram to announce the news on Ugadi. While Hindi films have been failing to get the cash registers ringing, she is fortunate to be starring in a multilingual film.
Reacting to the debate between Bollywood and regional language films, Shilpa told Hindustan Times, "It is a very difficult time for films, in general. You can't say that Hindi films are less, or inferior to other films from different languages. My perspective is that films are being churned out and the audiences have become a little fastidious. Also, the fans in South are a little more fanatical, so they really will venture out, plus the ticket prices are much lesser [there]."
Nonetheless, it cannot be ruled out that her comeback films, ‘Hungama 2’ and ‘Nikamma’, were panned by the audiences and critics. Talking about it, the actress added, "I don't think about it only. I just know that every film comes with its own destiny. And nobody came out saying that, 'Oh, Shilpa was bad in the film'. As long as that doesn't happen, I am fine," she quips, adding, "Also, once I finish my job as an actor, I forget about the film. I don't take that onus or that pressure [of the box office result]. You've delivered the child. Now whatever or however that child turns out to be, you've to accept it with all your heart and it still is your baby."
Meanwhile, Shilpa will also be seen in 'Indian Police Force', an upcoming Hindi language cop action drama streaming series, which is created and directed by Rohit Shetty. It also stars Sidharth Malhotra and Vivek Oberoi in the lead. It is set in Shetty's fictional Cop Universe.
