Episode 11 - Kantara: Chapter 1 (2025)
In Episode 11 of The BoM Podcast, we discuss one of our most anticipated releases of the year — Kantara: Chapter 1, the prequel to a film that holds a very special place in our hearts. ❤️
The original Kantara ranks among our favorite films of all time, and this new chapter dives deeper into the mythology, culture, and spiritual essence that made it unforgettable.
This story hits especially close to home for us — our roots are in Mangalore, where the sacred traditions of Bhootha Kola originated and continue to hold deep cultural and spiritual significance. 🙏
We break down:
🔥 Whether Kantara: Chapter 1 lives up to the original’s legacy
💰 How the film utilizes its bigger budget and expanded world
🎭 Rishab Shetty’s performance and vision as a director
🌾 The cultural authenticity, spiritual symbolism, and cinematic storytelling that make this franchise unique
Join us as we unpack what makes Kantara: Chapter 1 such a powerful continuation — and a proud representation of the land, people, and beliefs we call home.
