Yeah, but the Original language is available right?

As usual, Hindi will be released later.
Probably a month.

Are they still playing that song "varaha roopam" as court ordered to stop using it due to the copyright infringement.

No, they have changed it pensive pensive. It was the only song I played on a loop for almost 2 months. I just hope that the original song will be added again 🤞.

Kannada best language to watch. Original script dialogues worth it. Hindi translation doesn't even come close to the original. Watched both kannada n Hindi.

Those who really want to watch for its essence, better watch the original audio with English subtitles.. it's quite good. And it's a simple movie (with a good twist). You need to get connected with the culture to feel the depth. fire raised_hands💯

I prefer watching all South Indian movies with subtitles because as you said essence, emotions and feel of the scenes is always lost in other language dubbing. 

In 2005, I saw Korean movie My Sassy Girl without any subtitles aid as I downloaded it from torrents by mistake. It was such an intense romantic drama that I really got teary eyes in the end after watching that movie without knowing any word they said. Even music of I beleive song in background was so ultimate that I kept whistling it for days. I know love stories have no logic, but after watching some powerful movies, one can feel good about their ownselves 😍

Hope Kantara is also like that.

Promotions? Which promotions??
It's the word of mouth that's brought it to this place.

Kantara created history (mainly coz of climax) because for most of the common normal audience it's something new never witnessed act, but not for me who is aware of such supernatural phenomena that's why there was no fun for me, e.g for foreigners slumdog millionaire was epic but for we Indians nothing extraordinary, same goes with Kantara audience who are unaware of such practice and spiritual powers went crazy @bdatta1981 @chiraggyl170 @Ash-D @B3A5T @superdimes @deb3l @MSDfan @saucap @amey_dev143 @Dileep_kumar right Dileep too much hyped movie but not through promotions, it was word of mouth instead, YouTubers exaggerated reviews and timing, nowadays anything from south is making news, simple common sense and logic to prove my point distinguish between Tumbbad vs Kantara and all will find the answer. Thanks me later.

Why the Hero or Hero father disappear in the starting of the move and ending of the movie. Are they dead? What's the point in that?

@Baaap

If you think Kantara is just about supernatural powers and it's repercussions, I'm sorry to say.. you have missed a lot more that it did offer to make you feel about. Had it be like that.. there would not be any sufferings on the people's side.. the cop would have not understood where he went wrong.. the main protagonist through which the deity appears in the end would have never happened as he was the one after killing the same God the whole time. So many thing to watch and feel about the tribal life and their beliefs. Obviously, it's not everyone's piece of cake. Oh yes, a wide range of people from all over the art and cinema fraternity could able to recognise the gem inside SDM and hyped it unnecessarily, as it's no big deal for anyone living that life daily and couldn't differentiate the cinematic aspect of any fine cinema. Believe me, almost all Academy flicks are hell bore to the core for entertaining masses, yet they have their own charisma and place amongst all. And yes, not a single one I've watched did fail to amaze me!

Being said that, in art.. there can be hundreds of views/ perspectives on any subject and it surely doesn't have to coincide with others sitting just beside us watching the same piece. It all depends on the way you perceive it. You are absolutely right defining it in your ways just like the rest gave their 'insights and feel' about this piece (though they have tried to make it less art and more entertainment). Nothing can be denied!!

@Dileep_kumar Even many North/ East Indian movies are not everyone's favourite. Being from a region has got no meaning on how you perceive something made with heavy detailing and still feel disconnected to that. To each his own! grinning

@indianboy my point is Kantara would be a good movie but not great, just coz of timing "Boycott Bollywood" Kantara earn more than what it deserves, synonyms of Quality Content and definition of Art + Entertainment = Tumbbad. You can't Dabate/Argue or Counter.

I must say that the newer version of varaha roopam ( earlier one was bang on but plagiarized ) is not creating the same effect.. 😢

Can anyone comment same for Avatar, Sholay, Andaz Apna Apna, Hera Pheri, Bahubali, RRR? Problem is not with the movie problem is with the Hype, Undeserving factor.

Even I am not very impressed. No doubt, last 9.5 minutes of the movie was exceptionally brilliant. Beginning was also sketched beautifully but middle part was dull.

Ab dekh li ek baar, ab uska kya port-mortem karna. Dobara dekhi jaaye aisi movie nahin hai. Hype toh kuch jyada hi tha. Actors were all good, story itna manjha hua nahin tha.

This film has extremely Misogynistic Love story and cringe jokes like comparing the teeth of a woman to a buffalo's teeth.

The hero follows heroine. She doesn't like it. 

Hero pinches her waist without consent. She hates it.

In the song, he peeps into her bathroom while she is taking bath.

Just coz you make a film based in the 80s, you don't have to copy the cringe love stories from 80s films.

Achyuth's Character Devendra Suttoor has to be one of the better portrayals of Savarna Liberals. Savarna Liberals stay so-called 'allies' of Dalits as long as Dalits don't disrupt their Caste and Class Privilege.

Deva : God's Shiva Vishnu Mata Parvati Lakshmi etc ... who shower unconditional motherly love n can forgive for the mistakes one does.

Daiva : Example Veera Bhadra, ferocious guardian diety of Lord Shiva. Not d forgiving type. No mercy. One gets the punishment for their mistakes then n there itself.

Panjurli is accompanied by ferocious Guliga.

King finds the sacred stone, Panjurli God.

Panjurli tells him that even though he can forgive if any mistake committed, he  would be accompanied by ferocious guliga who will not forgive if the promise is broken.

Nearly hundred years later, when the king’s descendant wants to the land back.

During Bhoota Kola( bhoota means pancha bhoota, the Earth, sky, water, fire n air... the worship of nature in general) a ritual performance in which the gods are said to possess the body of the performer, the descendent demands for the land to be given back to him...

Performer (Panjurli) tells him, if the descendant could return back what he/ his family got from him in exchange,  for all those n henceforth coming  generations ( the peace of mind), then I can get back the land from d people.

The descendant says "so u can't give me back what belongs to me. Then I do know, how to take it back"( where he thinks of legal approach but doesnt mention abt that openly)

Panjurli Performer : U want to go to court. But this land belongs to people. And this will be settled, not today, but later, in the coming years at the right time. U go to the court but I will do the justice on the court steps.. (before the descendant could proceed legally with it)

The descendant questions the performer if these words were from the God, Panjurli or were the words of the performer (trying to scare him of dire consequences.)

Performer possessed by Panjurli at that moment, tells him if these words were from the performer, may u or people find him.

And if it's my words i.e God Panjurli's words, (find him if u can expression/ challenge) and vanishes in d dense forest.

Hope this explains @Subhodayam

The act of vanishing or disappearing into the forest by the performer doesn't  seem to be a myth, as i saw a video on YouTube where people form human chains during Bhoota kola to stop the performer from running away into forest. I don't know why so but anyone from that region who knows it can explain that better...

Watched the second day it released on Prime. The production house is same as KGF. That has major play in the hype created. The story is as simple as those 10 pages books. Only good thing is climax performance. They should delete the unnecessary parts and keep only the last 20mins. laughing
