All about Kantara
Kantara, written and directed by Rishab Shetty himself, is produced by Vijay Kiragandur under Hombale Films. The film stars Shetty as a Kambala champion who challenges upright DRFO officer, Murali (played by Kishore).
‘Kantara’ was released with less expectations on 30 September and it clashed with Mani Ratnam’s ambitious film ‘Ponniyin Selvam: Part 1’. With highly positive words, the movie managed to strike gold not only in Karnataka but in the Hindi belt and the Telugu-speaking states.
