Dulquer Salman’s Much-awaited Film “Kanatha”, Directed by Selvamani Selvaraj, is Geering up for a Grand Release on November 14. The film Features Rana Daggubati, Samutihiran, and Bhagyashree Borse in other Lead Roes. Ahead of the release, dulquer and rana shared insights about the project at a press conference.
Addressing the buzz that “Kaantha” might be a biopic, Rana clarified, “It’s a completely fictional story. It’s inspired by a bygone era of cinema. It was a time when great artists competed for creative brilliance. It’s not based on anyone’s grandfather or father,” he said with a laugh.
Dulquer added, “I instantly connected with the story. It’s a fictional tale told with great emotion and authenticity. Kantha is one of those rare films that come once in a lifetime. You can’t recreate such experiences easily.”
Talking about the casting, Rana revealed, “Director Selva searched for the heroine for almost six months. When we met Bhagyashree Borse, she seemed too modern for the part, but once she auditioned with Dulquer, we knew she was perfect.”

Sharing his excitement, Rana said, “Kaantha is very close to our hearts. We are both lifelong lovers of cinema, and this film feels like giving back to the art that shaped us. It’s not just a movie. It’s a celebration of cinema itself.”
Rana also added,” “Yes, that’s true. Some of the rare equipment used during that golden era is showcased in Kaantha. The set features authentic props and items that were once part of several legendary film productions. You’ll be amazed to see that Pathala Bhairavi was actually filmed with such cameras.”
