As of November 10, 2025, the recently released 'Kantara: Chapter 1' continues to captivate audiences and artists across India. In a now-viral video, a group of creative individuals in Kerala have revealed their remarkable recreation of the film's striking tiger figure, which was made entirely using waste materials.
The artists began with a wooden frame, layering it with dried banana leaves, straws, and papier-mâché to form the base of the sculpture. For the fur, they utilized coconut fiber husk, while the facial features were sculpted with precision. The final touches included spray-painting and hand-painting the black stripes to give the sculpture a realistic finish similar to the tiger seen in the film.
