Simbu is all praise for the newly released Kannada film Kantara. The actor wished the Kantara’s team on their success by sending them a cake. Karthik Gowda, the creative producer of the film, reacted by posting a picture of the cake on Twitter and thanking Simbu for his gesture. Simbu responded by saying, “the pleasure is all mine.”

Kantara is an action-thriller film with a prominent presence of Bhootha Kola form of worship entwined in its story. Written and directed by Rishab Shetty, who also plays the lead in the film, Kantara is produced by Vijay Kiragandu under his banner Hombale films. Shetty plays a Kambala (traditional buffalo racing sport) champion in this film that talks about the conflict between the people of the land and forest officer.

The cast of the film includes Kishore, Achyuth Kumar, and Sapthami Gowda. The cinematography for the film is handled by Arvind S Kashyap while Ajaneesh Loknath composed the music for the film. Kantara hit the theatres on 30 September and received overwhelmingly positive reviews. 

Silambarasan, who is hot on the heels of his Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu’s success, is currently shooting his portions for Pathu Thala, which is a remake of the Kannada film Mufti.
