Finally, after years of watching original content in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam while feeling frustrated about the lack of attention to Kannada and its audience, it seems like things are changing. A major streaming service just revealed that it will launch its very first Kannada original crime drama.

Ayyana Mane is set to premiere on Zee5 soon...

Ayyana Mane is a 7-part crime drama produced by Shruti Naidu, who is well-known for her work on popular Kannada TV shows like Brahmagantu, Yaare Nee Mohini, and Sangharsha, as well as the Kannada film Premier Padmini featuring Jaggesh and Pramod. The series is directed by Ramesh Indira, recognized for his roles as Soma in Sapta Sagaradaache Ello and Dinoo Saavkaar in Kotee, and he’s currently one of the most in-demand villains in Kannada films. The cast includes Kushee Ravi, known from Dia, along with Akshya Nayak and Manasi Sudheer, among others. All 7 episodes of Ayyana Mane will be available on Zee5 starting April 25.

The official summary of Ayyana Mane reveals that the show incorporates horror aspects, centered on the eerie deaths occurring in an ancient mansion where no woman has ever made it out alive. The plot centers on Jaji (Kushee), who marries into a family that has seen three other daughters-in-law meet untimely and mysterious ends. Once Jaji uncovers this unsettling truth, she sets out to investigate, enlisting the help of the household staff and a police officer. Are these deaths connected to the family's deity? Is there a curse involved, or is something even darker happening?

Jaji is racing against the clock to uncover crucial information that could save her life before it’s too late. Ayyana Mane is now part of the growing list of Zee5 originals, including titles like Ayali, Broken News, Vikkatakavi, Taj, and Manorathangal, marking it as the first Kannada series on the platform. It’s been some time since major content creators have explored the web series scene in Kannada. While a few shows like Honeymoon, By Mistake, and Hate U Romeo were produced by Niveditha Shivarajkumar and RJ Pradeepa with minimal buzz, others like Kyaabre went directly to YouTube.
