Rishab Shetty became a pan-India star with 'Kantara' which emerged as one of the biggest blockbusters of 2022. The film has completed 100 days and now, Rishab has officially announced 'Kantara 2'. Speaking at an event, he said that the sequel will actually be a prequel to whatever was shown in the first film. It is expected to go on floors later this year.
Rishab said, 'We are very pleased and thankful to the audience who had shown immense love and support to Kantara. With the blessing of almighty Daiva, the film has successfully completed 100 days and I would like to take this opportunity to announce the prequel of Kantara.'
He added, 'What you have seen is actually Part 2, Part 1 will come next year. The idea flashed into my mind while I was shooting for Kantara because the history of Kantara has more depth to it. Currently, we are in the middle of digging into more details. As the research is still underway, it would be very early to reveal details about the film.'
'Kantara' also stars Kishore, Achyuth Kumar, Sapthami Gowda, and Pramod Shetty. The Rishab Shetty directorial earned over Rs 450 crore at the box office.
