[edit]

In this edit I removed some confusing content. The article said:

"Shot primarily in the Kannada language, the film was simultaneously dubbed into Telugu, and Tamil languages..."

It's unclear what "simultaneously dubbed" means. Does it mean that there were other actors who were recording voiceovers during the filming? Or do we mean that the film was shot in multiple languages like Baahubali? If the latter, that's not dubbing, that's filming in two different languages. If we mean that after filming the movie was dubbed into the other languages, then we are misusing the |language= parameter of the infobox. This field should contain the language that the film was originally shot in, which seems to be Kannada.

Additionally, |released= contained the values:

{{film date|2016|1|1|df=yes}} (Kannada)<br>{{film date|2016|1|7|df=yes}} (Telugu).

This is a misuse of |released=. All Template:Infobox film is interested in, is where the film first released. Kannada is not a country. Telugu is not a country. So the correct value is:

{{film date|2016|1|1|df=yes|India}}.
