THIS South superstar play key role in Rishab Shetty’s Kantara: Chapter 1
Rishab Shetty’s upcoming film, Kantara: Chapter 1, is generating excitement among fans. According to reports, the legendary actor Mohanlal might play a key role in this prequel to the blockbuster Kantara. Rumors suggest that Mohanlal could portray the character of Rishab Shetty’s father, though this information has not been officially confirmed by the filmmakers.
The buzz surrounding Kantara: Chapter 1 has been growing ever since Rishab Shetty and his wife, Pragathi, were seen meeting with Mohanlal earlier this year. Pictures of their meeting have fueled speculation about the collaboration between the two iconic actors. If true, this casting choice would add a legendary dimension to the already anticipated film.
Kantara: Chapter 1 will serve as a prequel to the original Kantara, which became a massive hit with its story of folklore, myth, and visual grandeur. The film explored themes of divine intervention and the relationship between humans and nature, earning widespread acclaim. The first part followed the character of Shiva, played by Rishab Shetty, as he fought to protect his village’s sacred land.
The new film is expected to delve deeper into the lore of Panchurli Deiva, an ancient deity, and is set during the Kadamba era. Rishab Shetty will once again direct the movie, while Ajaneesh Loknath, the music composer from the first installment, returns to create the score.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the release of Kantara: Chapter 1, which is expected to hit theaters in late 2024 or early 2025. After its theatrical release, the film will also be available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Meanwhile, Mohanlal is busy with his directorial debut, Barroz, and his acting projects L2: Empuraan and the tentatively titled L360.
With these exciting developments, Kantara: Chapter 1 promises to be an epic addition to Indian cinema.
