Dulquer Salmaan believed heavily in the script of Kaantha, and he not only acted as the film’s lead but also produced it. However, his efforts went in vain as the film failed to receive positive responses from audiences and critics. After a poor theatrical performance, Kaantha disappoints upon its OTT debut as well.
Rana Daggubati, who played a crucial role in the film, is also a co-producer for the film. The movie was expected to be one of the classic films even before its release. However, it failed to connect with theatrical audiences and ended up as a box-office failure.
Because of the periodic backdrop and movie shooting backdrop, many expected it to receive a better response in the digital space. But surprisingly, the OTT audiences’ response to Kaantha has been even poorer than the theatrical response, and the film disappoints in both theatrical and digital releases.
