Kantara: Chapter 1 First Review
Since the release of the trailer of 'Kantara 2', the audience has been eagerly waiting for this movie. The movie is set to release grandly in theaters on October 2, 2025, during the festival of Dussehra. The trailer suggests that the story of 'Kantara: Chapter 1' will start from where the first part ended.
In this trailer, Shiva (the hero of the movie Kantara) is shown asking his mother how his father disappeared in the same place. This scene indicates the continuation of the story. Moreover, the trailer makes it clear that the story of this movie revolves around the origins of the 'Bhoota Kola' culture during the Kadamba Dynasty. This point has increased the interest in the movie even more.
At a time when expectations have increased with the trailer, the first review of this movie has now been released. Renowned film critic Umair Sandhu has given this first review. Umair Sandhu tweeted on his Twitter account, "All that glitters is not gold! Kantara Chapter 1 is an overrated, weird film."
This means that he seems to have not liked the film that much. According to him, the hype surrounding 'Kantara 2' is not that great. Even though Umair Sandhu gave a negative review to 'Kantara: Chapter 1', if we look at the advance bookings of this film, it seems that it has the potential to create a new history in terms of collections at the box office.
However, the real quality of the film will be known to the audience only after its release in theaters. Therefore, it is too early to say anything about the film now. There is a possibility that the audience's response will be different from Umair Sandhu's opinion.
Because, many times in the past, the reviews given by Umair Sandhu have not been in line with the audience's opinion. There have been times when the film, which he has described negatively, has impressed the audience. So, to know what happens in 'Kantara: Chapter 1', we will have to wait until October 2, 2025.
