Much-awaited and most talked-about Kannada film, Kurukshetra is a day away from its grand release. Though producer Muniratna irked fans a couple of times for several reasons, he has managed to make his film as magnificent as possible. There is a lot of hype surrounding this film ever since it was announced. While Darshan fans feel his 50th film calls for a celebration, Rebel Star Ambareesh's fans are waiting to watch the legendary actor play Bheeshma on screen. The makers are also taking pride in the fact that it is the first mythological film to be made in both 2D and 3D versions. All these factors seem to have worked in Kurukshetra's favour as the film has already made Rs 20 crore through pre-release business!
