Insights from HT Review of Kantara Chapter 1

A segment from the Hindustan Times review highlighted, “Rishab Shetty effectively merges folk traditions with contemporary sensibilities in this installment. The women characters are given more agency compared to the previous film, though there are still instances that follow traditional tropes. While women are portrayed with power, it often requires them to rebel, hinting at tokenism.”
