  2. Rishab Shetty's Vision is Uncompromised: As both star and director, Shetty's vision for the prequel—exploring the origins of the Bhuta Kola ritual and the lore of land guardianship—is clearly connecting on an emotional and spiritual level.

The Kantara universe is officially one of the most bankable franchises in the country!
