All the while, Director Prashanth Neel has been the leading Kannada Cinema Director in South Indian cinema, and his legacy has been growing beyond imagination. But finally, after all these years, we have another interesting addition to the list of talented directors in Kannada cinema.

The latest news is that another extremely talented, Kannada actor and director Rishabh Shetty has managed to deliver extreme commercial success with his latest film Kantara 1.

The film has opened on a pretty good note at the box office and it is bringing good revenues at the ticket counters.

However, the point of difference here is that Rishabh Shetty appears to be evolving as one of the most talented commercial directors in South Indian cinema.

The kind of large scale filmmaking and blending of religious sentiments that Rishabh has been able to deliver is beyond. He has quickly as much as the most promising commercial director in recent times.

The super success of Kantara is going to build a bigger platform for him and could help generate more traction for him in the near future. He is right up there very next to Neel when it comes to commercial filmmaking.

It is perhaps time for Telugu heroes to also consider the area of working with Rishabh Shetty in the near future if he has something interesting in terms of script preparation. He has the right commercial ingredients to present our superstars in a good manner on big screens.
