Last month, on September 30th, the promotion of the Telugu version of 'Kantara Chapter 1' was held in Vijayawada with great fanfare. The film's director and lead actor, Rishab Shetty, along with heroine Rukmini Vasanth, met with enthusiastic fans at the Vijayawada Expo Grounds. Rishab's dramatic arrival on stage and Rukmini's captivating appearance generated immense excitement among the audience.

Addressing the fans, Rishab Shetty acknowledged the close bond between Kannada and Telugu cultures, stating, "Kannada, Kannadiga, and Telugu are brothers; everyone is a brother." He promised to learn Telugu properly for his next Telugu film, 'Jai Hanuman,' assuring the audience that he would speak in their native language during that project.
