Rishab Shetty to shoot major portions of Kantara: Chapter 1 in his village in April
On Tuesday, Kantara: Chapter 1 was announced in a grand way in association with Hombale Films and Rishab Shetty since it will be streaming on Prime Video post its theatrical release. Since the film is in its shooting stages, Rishab Shetty who was also at the event made a big revelation related to the much-awaited film and said, “Humare gaon ka jo ek kahaani aur folklore leke aana chahiye bade screen pe – yeh ek dream tha. When I was in my second year of college toh uss samay yeh kahani tha dimaag mein – mann mein (I started my acting career from here, which I performed when I was in the 6th standard. Our village’s story and folklore should be brought to the big screen. When I was in my second year of college, this story was in my mind).”
He continued, “When I became a filmmaker, ek screenplay jaisa construct kiya. Shoot karne se pehle humara plan tha ki prequel ja raha hai. So, baad mein, darshako ne itna bada support diya hai. Humare gaon mein bada set lagaya hai abhi. Next mahine hum log shoot jaa rahe hai (When I became a filmmaker, I constructed a screenplay properly. Before shooting, we planned that a prequel is going to happen. We also got a huge support from the audience. We have set up a big set in our village now. We will be shooting there next month)”.
It can’t be denied that the first film in the franchise, Kantara: A Legend gave audiences an unforgettable theatrical experience to audiences as it opened up a whole new world.
