But the excitement is not just about the trailer. Behind the scenes, ‘Kantara: Chapter 1’ has been made on a scale rarely seen in Indian cinema. A massive war sequence has been created with international experts, featuring over 500 trained fighters and nearly 3,000 people in total. To shoot this, the makers built an entire town across 25 acres of rugged land.
The sequence alone took almost 50 days to film.
The movie also brings together a strong creative team: music by B. Ajaneesh Loknath, cinematography by Arvind Kashyap, and production design by Vinesh Banglan.
Set for a grand worldwide release on October 2, the film will release in multiple languages: Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil, Bengali, and even English.
