Kantara will be released in Hindi on October 14. Directed and led by Rishab Shetty, it also stars Sapthami Gowda, Kishore, and Achyuth Kumar. Set in the fictional village of Dakshina Kannada, Kantara is a visual grandeur that brings alive the traditional culture of Kambala and Bhoota Kola art form to the fore.
