Rishab Shetty starrer Kantara has been receiving much love from the audience and is running successfully in theatres. The makers, who are flattered by the response that the Kannada version has been getting, are now also trying to explore the Hindi market, and they have now released the film’s Hindi trailer.
The production house Hombale Films dropped the movie’s trailer in Hindi version on Youtube and it is all things intriguing. The two-minute-forty-four-second trailer starts with a small village, and the narrator tells the tale of a king who donates his land to the demigods, which has been taken by the local people of a village. The movie showcases sacred customs and traditions, hidden treasures and generational secrets against the backdrop of uniquely rugged, charming landscapes of coastal Karnataka. The movie also showcases Rishab’s character a villager -Shiva – and his fight with a forest officer (essayed by Kishore). We also see glimpses of Kambala’s traditional culture and the Bhoota Kola art form. The story of Kantara is set up in the fictional village of Dakshina Kannada. The story revolves around the human and nature conflict, which is deeply rooted in the coastal culture and folklore of Karnataka.

Kannada film Kantara is raking in good reviews from critics and audiences from across the county. Made on a small budget, Kantara hit the theatres on September 30. The film, which did not have much buzz before its release in the country, has been drawing everyone’s attention for its spectacular content and performances.
On Saturday, Kannada superstar Kiccha Sudeep penned a long appreciation post for Kantara team and its lead actor Rishabh Shetty and thanked them for believing in a subject like this. Kiccha also gave a shout-out to Rishabh for his “fantabulous performance” in the movie. He also praised music director Ajaneesh B Loknath for his commendable score in the film.
The ‘Vikrant Rona’ star said that rarely does he come across a film that leaves him speechless and Kantara is one such movie.
