New Delhi [India], December 22: Riddhi Entertainments today unveiled the first single from Karikaada, the highly anticipated romantic action drama directed by K. Venkatesh. Titled “Kabbinjalle,” the duet is presented in Kannada as the film’s flagship track. It has been simultaneously recorded and released in four other major Indian languages — Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam — as part of the makers’ clear pan‑India strategy.
Athishay Jain, who composes the film’s music, also lends his voice to the original Kannada version alongside Manasa Holla. At the same time, the lyrics for the Kannada cut are penned by director K. Venkatesh himself. The song’s choreography, crafted by Bhushan, showcases signature hook steps performed on screen by the film’s lead pair, Kaada Natraj and Niriksha Shetty, adding a visual element designed to spark the digital excitement and shareability the team hopes to capture.
