The divine fury conquers. Kantara Chapter 1 crosses 3M in North America and the roar just got louder! (sic), Prathyangira Cinemas, the overseas distributor of Rishab Shetty's movie, stated. The period mythological action drama was released with October 1st premiere shows in NA. The film, produced by Hombale Films, has been receiving applause from all sections of society. From actors and sportsmen like KL Rahul to politicians, they are celebrating the movie. Former Karnataka CM HD Kumaraswamy watched the movie in New Delhi with his wife. A magnificent celebration of Kannada identity. A heartfelt portrayal of our cultural essence, deeply moving and profoundly authentic. A grand unveiling of Tulu Nadu s rich traditions, spirituality, and divine heritage. This film is a creation that transcends words, a masterpiece of imagination and artistry. In New Delhi, my wife, Smt. Anitha Kumaraswamy, and I had the privilege of watching Kantara: Chapter 1, he wrote on social media. Meanwhile, the makers have asked the public not to mimic the rituals depicted in the movie. Dhaivaradhane or Daiva worship, as featured in our film, is rooted in deep spiritual tradition and is not intended for performance or casual mimicry. Such acts amount to trivializing our belief system and deeply hurt the religious sentiments and faith of the Tulu community. Hombale Films therefore makes a strong and sincere appeal to the public and audiences to refrain from any act that involves imitating, mimicking, or trivializing the Daiva personas—whether in cinema halls or in public places, they wrote. Rishab Shetty has directed the movie. Also Read : Ravi Teja Shot 'Tu Mera Lover' While Seriously Unwell, Went Straight to Hospital Prabhas Pournami Set for Grand Re-Release in 4K on October 23rd
