JKS (director)

JKS is an Indian film director who has worked on Kannada, Tamil and Telugu and language films. After beginning his career in Kannada films, JKS made a trilingual film Alone (2015), which became his second film release.[1]

Career

Jagadish Kumar made his directorial debut with Shatru, under the screen name of JK.[2][3][4] The film's average response prompted him to begin work on Subramani with Srinagar Kitty and Disha Pandey, while he changed his named to JKS for the venture.[5] The production of Subramani was later put on hold, as JKS moved on to direct the horror thriller film Alone (2015), which was made as a trilingual in Kannada, Tamil and Telugu.[6][5] Featuring Nikesha Patel and Iniya in the lead roles, the director attempted to bring in Suniel Shetty for a role, before finalising Simran to portray the particular CBI character. The Kannada version opened in November 2015 to mixed reviews, while the Tamil film released in January 2016.
