The Kannada film “Kantara” is showing steady growth in the Hindi market. The film’s climax sequence and the divine elements have struck a chord with Hindi audiences as well. The film’s first week collections stand at Rs 13.50 Cr.
With no major competition from Hindi films during this Diwali period, “Kantara” has the potential to gain more.
The Bollywood trade analysts say it will comfortably cross the Rs 20 crore mark. If it performs well during the Diwali period, it has a chance to touch the gross of “Kartikeya 2”.
Nikhil Siddharth starrer collected Rs 25.5 crore in Hindi. It is one of the biggest hits in the Hindi market this year. “Kantara” is hoping to collect as much as “Karthikeya 2” did.
The Rishab Shetty starrer is also holding well in the Telugu states.
