One year of Kantara

What a life-changing, crazy, unforgettable ride this was. I still think about the time we spent making this film, from long days on set to incredible remote locations, the chaos, the laughter, the learning, and all the little moments in between that led to a film that I’ll always be proud of and grateful for.

Thank you to the entire team and to all of you for the endless love you’ve showered on us all.

Rukmini made her film debut in the Kannada thriller Birbal (2019).
