I am from the Tulu Nadu, where Bhootha Kola, Theyyam are happening..
The people of this land are very devotive and believe the Daiva, The Gana's save their life and land...
So Kanthara shooted on this theme and its first mythology based Indian film had Greatest hot and Rishab Shetty hot National Award for best Actor..
Why Kantara 2 is called a very good mythological movie
1. Mythological Roots – Unlike the first part, Kantara 2 dives deep into the origins of the Daiva (divine spirit) and its connection to the land, people, and traditions.
2. Spiritual Storytelling – It doesn’t just show rituals, but explains their meaning, power, and the bond between man and divine.
3. Prequel Setting – The movie is set centuries before Kantara 1, giving it a mythical, almost epic backdrop.
4. Bhoota Kola & Folklore – The film captures authentic rituals, chants, and performances, making the experience highly spiritual and rooted in Karnataka’s culture.
5. Cinematic Grandeur – Rich visuals, powerful music, and intense performances make the mythological theme feel larger than life.
6. Cultural Pride – It highlights the sacred traditions of Tulunadu, giving the audience both entertainment and a sense of respect for heritage.
👉 In short, Kantara 2 feels less like a regular movie and more like a blend of mythology, folklore, and divine storytelling, which is why people are praising it as a very good mythological movie.
But film like Kanthara not creating much Horror experience and the songs are not good as Kanthara..and repeated song at the end Varaha roopam ..
Overall movie makes you sit till the last scene
