Kantara: Chapter 1 Continues Its Box Office Triumph

Udaipur: Rishab Shetty’s ‘Kantara: Chapter 1’ continues to rake in phenomenal box office collections. Released during Dussehra, the film has already crossed ₹235 crore in just four days, with night show earnings likely to boost the total further. It has been houseful across India and overseas, reinforcing its widespread popularity.

Written, directed, and starring Rishab Shetty, the film explores events a thousand years before the 2022 blockbuster ‘Kantara’, delving into the tribal community’s struggle against a tyrant king, set against the backdrop of the guardian deity Panjurli Daiva. The performances of Rukmini Vasant, Jayaram, and Gulshan Devaiah add depth and dimension to the epic narrative.

The film’s success lies in its unique blend of folklore, cultural devotion, and cinematic grandeur. Both audiences and critics have praised it as a cinematic masterpiece. Continuous houseful shows across Indian theaters reflect its enduring appeal.

‘Kantara: Chapter 1’ not only strengthens Rishab Shetty’s reputation as a visionary storyteller but also highlights the global appeal of regional storytelling. Amid its box office success, the film was also showcased in a special screening at the Rashtrapati Bhavan, marking a proud moment for the entire team.
