Rishab Shetty starrer Kantara released in theaters back in 2022 and enthralled the audiences. The success of the film led to the announcement of Kantara: Chapter 1, which is going to be a prequel to the original film.
For the unversed, Kantara film is set of a village of Karnataka during the 1990s. During that time, a forest officer attempts to curb illegal tree felling and hunting in the area as it was a part of the reserve forest. However, villagers were against this idea as they believed the land was gifted to them as a boon from their Davia, a demigod who is a protector of the forest.
Following that, Rishab Shetty’s character in the film fights against Murali to protect his village and his land. The film showcases the age-old conflict between man and nature.
Meanwhile, Kantara: Chapter 1 is expected to explore the origins of Panjurli Davia and provide a backstory to the events that took place in the original film. The film will again feature Rishab Shetty in the lead role. The actor has already started preparing for his role in the film. Meanwhile, other details about the Rishab Shetty starrer are still under wraps.
