The movie makers of Kannada film industry have taken an initiation to create awareness among the people by making the films, which are based on real life incidents. After Veerappan Attahasa, Khatarnak is another biopic of the most wanted criminal, a psychopath and serial killer. Umesh was former police constable turned serial killer, who terrorised Karnataka in late 90s. He used to attack houses where women stayed alone. He would tie the victim and allegedly rape them with the knife point. Umesh was also called as psychopath killer in the police records as he used to wear the women dress after rape. The crew had named the movie as Umesh Reddy initially. Later, due to the opposition from the Umesh Reddy's family, they renamed it as Khatharnak. Though Khatarnak was declared as the biopic of the psychopath killer Umesh Reddy by the crew, the movie starts with the disclaimer which states 'Characters in the movie are purely imaginary and it is not targeted to any individual'. The plot mainly deals with the circumstances that led Umesh to become a criminal. Khatarnak has Ravi Kale and Roopika in the leads. It is directed by Malavalli Saikrishna.
