Horror franchises are rare in Indian cinema. Rarer is horror comedy franchises. But director-actor Raghava Lawrence hit the sweet spot with his Kanchana series. His latest movie, Kanchana 3—third in the Kanchana series and fourth in Muni series—is set to hit theatres on Friday.
Kanchana 3, (also known as Muni 4 : Kanchana 3), has all the ingredients that the franchise is known for—horror, action, comedy and drama. Directed and written by Raghava Lawrence and staring himself along with Oviya and Vedhika, Kanchana 3, according to the director, will offer maximum entertainment to the audience.
