Zee Kannada has always captivated its audience with unique content, offering engaging fiction stories, exciting reality shows, and blockbuster World Television Premieres. With its commitment to quality entertainment, Zee Kannada has consistently maintained its position as one of the most loved channels among Kannada viewers. Zee Kannada is all set to surprise its audience once again with the World Television Premiere of Landlord, this Saturday at 4 PM.
Set in rural Karnataka in the 1980s, Landlord is a gripping social drama that explores themes of dignity, oppression, justice, and resistance. Rooted in realism, the film highlights caste-based discrimination and deep-seated inequality, while reflecting the everyday struggle for survival in a divided society. At its core, it captures the clash between power and humanity, and the strength that emerges when ordinary people stand together against injustice.
The story follows Rachayya (Duniya Vijay), a humble labourer who dreams of a peaceful life with his wife Ningavva (Rachita Ram) and daughter Bhagya, along with owning a small piece of land he can proudly call his own. His aspirations, however, are constantly challenged by the oppressive rule of landlord Sanna Dhani (Raj B. Shetty), whose influence extends across land, politics, and the village hierarchy. While Rachayya believes in lawful justice, the escalating cycle of exploitation and fear forces him to confront harsh realities. As tragedy strikes and tensions rise, suppressed anger within the village begins to erupt, pushing Rachayya from a quiet observer into an unexpected leader of resistance.
Watch the World Television Premiere of Landlord this Saturday at 4 PM, only on Zee Kannada, and witness whether Rachayya and the villagers will rise against decades of oppression and reclaim their dignity.
