Chowka is a 2017 Indian Kannada action drama film directed by Tharun Sudhir, making his debut, and produced by Dwarakish, marking his 50th production film. It features an ensemble cast of Prem Kumar, Vijay Raghavendra, Prajwal Devaraj, Diganth, Priyamani, Bhavana Menon, Aindrita Ray and Deepa Sannidhi. Actor Kashinath appears in a special role and Darshan in a cameo appearance.
In the first of its kind, the film boasts of employing five music directors, five lyricists, five cinematographers, five art directors and five dialogue writers.
The movie was reported to be in the process of remake in four languages.
The film is the narrative which emerges through five different timelines and geographies within the state of Karnataka, encapsulating the lives of four people and their love lives while sending across a strong message relating to the common man. Four individuals, each with their own dreams and aspirations, get framed for sins they did not commit and land up in jail. They meet a school teacher who not just shows them hope but also stirs up a passion towards reform.
The story takes place in the city of Bangalore in 1986, followed by 1995 in Mysore, 2000 in Mangalore and 2007 in Bijapur. The present day is depicted in 2017, in the Central Jail of Bellary and ends in the Suvarna Vidhana Soudha premises in Belagavi.
