Kantara

It's an amazing movie showcasing the regional culture of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi region of Karnataka.

I am from this region and am familiar with the tradition of Bhoota Aradhana. This may seem superstitious and even scary initially, but it's okay, believe me, even I felt or used to feel the same. My humble request to the audience who are not familiar with this tradition, is that you to do a small research into 'Bhoota Kola' , 'Panjurli' and 'Guliga' daivas...this would make your experience and understanding this movie more enjoyable!.

This movie is a masterpiece trying to bring out the hidden, often misunderstood traditions into the mainstream. This is the reality, who many people in our country are not aware and it's absolutely okay. Such movies are helpful to make us all understand that India is a land of such a diversity and yet so beautiful!

This is a masala movie with some artistic touch. I feel it is hyped to the moon and you may feel underwhelmed after watching it. Totally predictable but the last 15 minutes are worth waiting. Atleast 20 minutes of the film could have been edited out. But still I think the movie has heart and shows us that a cinematicaly beautiful film is possible to make in budget. I saw some reviews and film essays after watching the movie and just can't understand how people can say it is beyond understanding. I may sound little harsh but it is because I felt cheated by all those YouTube movies reviewers who hyped this film like crazy.

Rarely does a movie like this come out which makes you feel you have been transported into another world. As a tuluva this made me so proud. More than anything else I want to thank Rishab Shetty for bringing out and showing our motherland and its rich culture to the entire world.

Coming to the movie part, it was nothing less than perfect. The acting, the story telling, the cinematography etc was class apart <3 Rishab shettre ereg dever edde malpad. Keep growing and keep delivering such master pieces throughout your life. This movie should receive National award and Rishab Anna should also receive National award for his brilliant acting.

No words to explain.... Outstanding Cinema. All departments hardwork shows in the screen. Aravind Kashyap cinematography is next level. BGM and Song from Ajaneesh gives goosebumps. The Director and Actor Rishabh Shetty is fire. Saptami Gowda did excellent and romantic part is very raw and goes with the story well. Kishore and Achyuth Sir perfect casting and brought justice to the role. Subtle comedy by Shiva and Gang keeps the story moving. The last climax is the must watch theatre experience and a divine moment. Proud film from Kannada industry and deeply rooted cultural but commercial entertainer. Finally thanks for Hombale Films to backing this project.
