‘Kantara’ is a village backdrop film, an ecological drama about the conflict between humanity and nature where the police can be seen condemning the customs of locals in the teaser, sparking a feud between locals and the cops.

The film title has a tagline calling it a ‘dhanta kathe’ or a legend. While the title itself has mystery in it, it has Sanskrit origins and has been used in Kannada too. It is used in Yakshagana, a folk dance form of Karnataka too, where they call a very mysterious forest as Kantara.

The shooting has been done in Keradi village and in the coastal parts of Karnataka, which also has an element of sports attached with it.

Known for their unique style of storytelling and supporting content specific script, this marks the fourth announcement from the production house Hombale Films, after the release of their Magnum Opus “KGF: Chapter 2′.

Post the success of ‘KGF” Chapter 2’, the producers have made several big ticket announcements of regional films as well as pan-India film. Sudha Kongara of ‘Soorarai Pottru’ fame was also recently roped in by the production house for a new pan-India film.
