The Rishab Shetty-starrer has dominated the box office since its October 2nd release. The Kannada movie has become a huge box office success in addition to getting excellent reviews at the ticket windows.
Kantara Chapter 1 is now just behind Chhaava in terms of domestic box office receipts, surpassing big films like Coolie, Saiyaara, and War 2. It is the third-highest-grossing Indian film of 2025; however, it still lags behind Saiyaara and Chhaava in terms of global revenue. Kantara Chapter 1 has undoubtedly taken centre stage, even though it was released with Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.
