Prashanth Neel Bio/Wiki:
Prashanth Neel is an Indian Kannada film director best known for directing the Sandalwood pan India movies KGF Chapter 1 and KGF Chapter 2. He completed his early education at Baldwin Boys School and then joined Seshadripuram College for higher studies. He decided to drop out of college during his MBA studies and started writing scripts for films.
Many films were shot in his family’s Hotels Highlands and Moti Mahal so he was well versed in the film industry. He would often write scripts for films while sitting alone in his room. However, he was also an unemployed youth who had come to earn money in filmmaking. After that he did a filmmaking course and took the script of his movie Aa Hudugi Neene, he went to his brother-in-law and actor Srimurali to cast them.
Neel changed his mind after Srimurali expressed concern over Prashanth’s inexperience in filmmaking. After that, he slowly started looking into Srimurali’s modus operandi and came back with a brilliant script for an action film, Ugramm in 2010.
Neel hadn’t attended any film school nor did he work with anybody as an assistant in the Movie business. So he learned everything on the job in his debut movie. So he formed his core team and they started shooting for Ugramm in 2010 and it took 4 years for him to complete since it was his first movie and he was very adamant for it to be his best and didn’t care about time
He cast his brother-in-law and actor Srimurali in the film Ugramm and released it in 2014. Upon release, the film turned out to be a massive commercial success and emerged as the highest-grossing Kannada film of 2014. Then, in early 2015, reports emerged that Prashanth had been signed to direct three films, the first of which was the sequel to Ugram, with Srimurali in the lead.
His second film was Kolar Gold Fields (KGF Chapter 1), in which Kannada actor Yash played the role of Rocky Bhai. The film was made for a total of ₹80 crores, which earned a total of ₹250 crores at the box office. His third film was KGF Chapter 2 which was released nationwide on 14 April 2022 due to Covid. Making history at the box office, the film earned ₹625 crores in just 5 days of its release.

श्रीमुराली ने प्रशांथ के फिल्ममेकिंग में अनुभवहीनता के कारण चिंता व्यक्त की जिसके बाद नील ने अपना विचार बदल दिया। उसके बाद उन्होंने धीरे धीरे श्रीमुरली के तौर तरीकों देखना शुरू किया और एक एक्शन फिल्म उग्रम्म की शानदार स्क्रिप्ट के साथ वापस आए। उग्राम्म फिल्म में उन्होंने अपने बहनोई और अभिनेता श्रीमुरली को कास्ट किया और 2014 में रिलीज किया।
