Video (Kannada with English Subtitles)

Video at Victory Cinema Video begins with a mystery hidden inside abandoned cameras. A group of Bengaluru vloggers known as the Tarle Gang reaches one million subscribers and decides to celebrate the milestone by travelling to explore what is described as India’s most haunted place. They disappear. Three months later, a couple from Tamil Nadu travelling along the road comes across cameras left behind, and the recordings inside them begin revealing what happened to the missing vloggers. Victory Cinema presents Video in Kannada with English subtitles for audiences from across Bengaluru. Written and directed by Srinidhi Bengaluru and produced by Dheekshith Shetty under Dhee Cinemas, the film stars Bharath K Tumkur, Jeevan Shivakumar, Tejesh S Manjunath, Priya J Achar and Nalme Nachiyar. Avinaasha Shastry handles cinematography, Prasanna Kumar M. S. creates the film’s sound and music environment, Sanjeev Jagirdar edits the film and Bharath Sagar serves as executive producer. Video releases theatrically on September 11, 2026. The Tarle Gang goes searching for fear At the centre of Video is a group of Bengaluru vloggers whose online success encourages them to attempt something more adventurous. After reaching one million subscribers, the Tarle Gang sets out to explore a place surrounded by stories of terror. For vloggers, the camera is normally a tool for entertainment. Every experience is something to record, edit and share. Video turns that familiar digital behaviour into the foundation of its horror. The group goes looking for frightening content, believing that the cameras will document their adventure. Instead, the footage becomes evidence of something far more disturbing. When the vloggers fail to return, the recordings they leave behind become the only apparent route towards understanding what happened to them. Abandoned cameras reveal the mystery Three months after the disappearance, a travelling Tamil Nadu couple discovers abandoned cameras on the road. What they initially find is simply recording equipment. What the cameras contain is something else entirely. As the footage is examined, fragments of the Tarle Gang’s journey begin to emerge. Ordinary vlogging gives way to uncertainty. Jokes, conversations and adventurous excitement can gradually take on a different meaning once viewers know that the people behind the camera eventually disappeared. This structure allows Video to build suspense around information the audience receives piece by piece. Instead of an outside narrator explaining the events, the recordings themselves become witnesses. The question is not merely whether the place is haunted. The larger mystery is what the cameras captured before the Tarle Gang vanished. Horror through found footage Video belongs to the found-footage tradition, where the film is presented as material recorded by the characters themselves rather than through a conventional cinematic camera. Director Srinidhi Bengaluru has described his approach as a “vlogumentary” — combining the visual language of vlogging with documentary-style footage. The characters do not always appear to be performing for a traditional movie camera. Instead, their world is captured using the kinds of devices people increasingly use in everyday life. CCTV footage, action cameras, dash cams and handheld devices become part of the storytelling. This creates the impression that the audience is not simply watching a fictional recreation but examining recordings recovered after something terrible has happened. That feeling of discovery is central to found-footage horror. The camera cannot always turn towards the place where the danger exists. Sometimes it records only a sound, a movement in the background or the frightened reaction of someone who has seen something the viewer has not. Twelve action cameras create an unusual visual experience Srinidhi Bengaluru has spoken about using multiple action cameras to build the film’s visual style, including as many as twelve action cameras during production. This allows the perspective to shift naturally between characters and recording devices. The approach also changes the relationship between the actors and camera. Rather than always performing in front of a cinematographer operating a conventional cinema setup, the actors can become part of the recording process themselves. That helps create the casual quality required for vlogging scenes. Conversations can feel spontaneous, movement can appear imperfect and the framing can remain deliberately uncontrolled. When horror enters such footage, the imperfection becomes an advantage. A camera may fall. A person may run out of frame. Darkness may hide part of an image. The audience must search the screen for information just as the characters search their surroundings. Srinidhi Bengaluru returns with another genre experiment Video is directed by Srinidhi Bengaluru, who previously made the Kannada science-fiction thriller Blink and later worked on the fantasy-comedy series Jerax. Rather than repeating the same genre, the filmmaker has moved towards found-footage horror for Video. He has spoken about wanting to explore horror from a different perspective and about the relative rarity of the found-footage form in Indian cinema. Kannada cinema has an important connection with the format through 6-5=2, which became widely known for presenting horror through supposedly recovered recordings. Video returns to this approach more than a decade later but places it inside the contemporary world of vloggers, subscriber counts, action cameras and digital content creation. Dhee Cinemas begins with Video Video is also significant as the first production from actor Dheekshith Shetty’s Dhee Cinemas banner. After working with Srinidhi Bengaluru on Blink, Dheekshith moved into production with the intention of supporting fresh ideas and emerging talent. Video became the first project chosen for that new production journey. Rather than beginning the banner with a conventional commercial formula, Dhee Cinemas has chosen a relatively uncommon filmmaking format. A found-footage horror film depends heavily on concept, atmosphere and execution rather than familiar song-and-dance structures. The CBFC record specifically notes that Video contains no songs, reinforcing the film’s decision to maintain the illusion of recovered recordings. Sound becomes part of the fear Found-footage horror depends heavily on sound because the audience cannot always see the source of danger. A noise outside the frame, footsteps in darkness, interference in a recording or a voice heard through another device can become more frightening than something shown directly. Prasanna Kumar M. S. handles the film’s sonic environment, while Srinidhi has explained that Video avoids relying on a conventional background-score approach for much of its horror. Instead, ambient sounds and sounds captured within the scenes help maintain the realism of the footage. This gives silence additional importance. If the viewer becomes accustomed to hearing only what the vloggers themselves would hear, every unexpected sound can immediately create tension. Avinaasha Shastry and Sanjeev Jagirdar shape the footage Avinaasha Shastry serves as director of photography, while Sanjeev Jagirdar handles editing. Both previously worked with Srinidhi Bengaluru and return for Video. Their work is particularly important because a found-footage movie must appear uncontrolled while actually being carefully constructed. The camera movements need to feel accidental without confusing the viewer. The editing needs to suggest recovered material while still creating suspense and narrative progression. Multiple video sources also create opportunities for the film to reveal the same environment from different perspectives. What one camera misses may have been captured somewhere else. Digital culture becomes a source of horror The premise of Video is rooted in contemporary behaviour. Vloggers routinely travel to unusual locations, undertake challenges and record themselves for online audiences. The Tarle Gang’s decision therefore begins as something recognisable rather than supernatural. They have achieved a major online milestone and want content capable of attracting attention. But a camera cannot protect the person holding it. Video uses the gap between online performance and physical reality as part of its tension. A situation that begins as entertainment can become dangerous long before the people recording it understand what they have entered. The audience knows from the beginning that the vloggers vanished. Every apparently harmless moment in the recovered footage therefore carries an underlying sense of dread. Kannada with English subtitles Victory Cinema presents Video in Kannada with English subtitles, allowing audiences to experience the original performances while following every important line clearly. Subtitles can be particularly helpful in found-footage cinema because dialogue may occur while characters are moving, speaking over one another or reacting to unexpected sounds. The film also contains small portions of English and Odia dialogue according to the CBFC certification record. For Bengaluru’s diverse audience, the English-subtitled presentation makes the film more accessible while preserving the voices, reactions and natural conversational quality of the original Kannada performances. An A-certified horror experience The Central Board of Film Certification has given Video an A certificate. The certified length is 122.35 minutes, placing the runtime at a little over two hours. The adult classification positions the film as a horror experience intended for mature audiences. Rather than depending on songs or conventional commercial breaks from the story, Video is designed around the escalating discovery of what happened to its missing vloggers. That uninterrupted format can make the theatrical experience especially intense because the audience remains inside the recovered-footage illusion as the mystery becomes darker. A horror film built for a theatre audience Found footage may imitate small cameras and digital recordings, but that does not make it a small-screen experience. A cinema screen gives viewers more visual space to search for details hidden in darkness or in the background of a frame. Sounds arriving from around the auditorium can make an unseen threat feel closer. The trailer itself was presented unusually by incorporating reactions from audiences at an advance screening, emphasising the filmmakers’ interest in the shared reaction that horror can create inside a theatre. Fear becomes contagious in a crowd. One sudden reaction can travel through an auditorium, while silence before a frightening moment can create collective tension.
