Johnny Will Become A Franchise With One Film A Year: Preetham Gubbi

Kannada flick Johny Mera Naam Preethi Mera Kaam released in 2011 starring Duniya Vijay and Ramya in the lead roles. Helmed by Preetam Gubbi, the flick was bankrolled by Jayanna and Bhogendra under Jayanna combines banner. Now Vijay and Preetam are back with the sequel of the film.

Their second film together is Johnny Johnny Yes Papa. When asked how they came up with the idea of its sequel, Gubbi said, “People used to ask us frequently about working together again, especially on a sequel, considering that the characters were so well liked. But we believed that everything has its own time to fall in place, and that time is now. We always knew that we would do another film, but didn’t find the right script. Then we decided to do Johnny Johnny Yes Papa (JJYP) as a sequel, with Vijay doubling up as producer also”.

He further added, “And we are not going to stop with this film. Johnny will become a franchise with one film a year. I was the first director to tap into the comic in Vijay. Until then, he was only known as an action star. He has impeccable timing when it comes to comedy, which I noticed off screen”.
