A good film needs no language barrier—Kantara (2022) proved this by earning over ₹400 crore on a ₹16 crore budget. Directed and led by Rishab Shetty, with music by Ajaneesh Loknath, and produced by Hombale Films, the movie's massive success has now led to a prequel.

The latest buzz suggests that Kantara 3 is in the works, set to release on October 2, and Jr NTR might join the cast. If confirmed, audiences could witness a powerful cinematic duo.

Jr NTR gears up for his grand Bollywood entry in War 2, sharing the screen with Hrithik Roshan—slated to hit theatres on August 14. He’s also working on a film with Prashanth Neel (tentatively titled Dragon), a mythological project with Trivikram Srinivas, and Devara 2.
