It is without a doubt that 'Kantara' is the most successful film in recent times. This movie which was made on a budget of 15 crores ended up minting more than 325 crores and it is still getting good money from all over the country. It was a straight Kannada film at the beginning but it became popular in other parts too and started collecting big in the South as well as North.
Till date, this super hit film got over 70 crores in the Hindi market and turned out to be the biggest Kannada film after 'KGF'. Rishab Shetty's movie is expected to collect more than 100 crores in North India and cross the collections of 'Pushpa: The Rise'. But it is not possible according to many. Getting over 30 crores with news films coming thick and fast is going to be a huge task and even if it beats 'Pushpa', the success of Allu Arjun's film is unparalleled since the conditions were very difficult during the time of its release.
This rustic action drama came during the third lockdown where ticket prizes were low and only fifty percent of people were allowed in theatres. Also, there was no proper promotion for 'Pushpa' in the North and people still loved the film thereby making it a blockbuster. While 'Kantara' is a huge success, it does not have the same hurdles as 'Pushpa' and experts claim that what Bunny's film managed to do is beyond everyone's imagination.
'Pushpa' is set in the backdrop of red sanders smuggling. Rashmika played the role of Srivalli in this film while Malayalam star hero Fahadh Faasil played the role of Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat. Actors like Ajay Ghosh, Sunil, Anasuya and others played negative roles in this high-budget film. Devi Sri Prasad gave the music while Mythri Movie Makers bankrolled it.
