Dulquer Salmaan in a New Avatar, Supported by a Strong Cast
Dulquer Salmaan, known recently for Lucky Baskhar, appears in a completely different avatar in this film. Actress Bhagyashree Borse stars opposite him, while Samuthirakani and Rana Daggubati play key supporting roles.
The film is based on the life of a Madras film star, exploring themes such as stardom, legacy, personal conflicts, and generational struggles. It is presented as a compelling and emotionally layered period drama.
Plot: The Story of a Superstar Son and His Director Father
The central narrative of Kaantha revolves around a superstar son and his father—who is also a film director. Their relationship is marked by creative disagreements, emotional turbulence, and personal challenges.
A major turning point comes when the protagonist signs a horror film titled “Santha”, considered the first horror film in Tamil cinema. However, due to creative conflicts with his father, the title is later changed to “Kaantha”. This clash forms the emotional core of the story.
