A less time consuming way would be, configure Android Studio to run Java Program and then call your Kotlin Class from that main method:

public class JavaApplication{
  public static void main(String[] args){
     KotlinApplicationKt.main(new String[]{});
  }
}

To configure your android studio to run Java Application: 1. Just add a new configuration(Run Menu > Edit Configurations > + icon ) 2. Select Application & then configure your Main class to your JavaApplication.class 3. Set the working directory to your project directory & JRE as JDK 4. Apply and Run !
