Rishab Shetty’s much-awaited film Kantara: Chapter 1 is all set to hit theaters tomorrow, but the excitement begins a day early. Initially, the makers had announced paid premieres across India, but many of those plans were canceled yesterday. Despite this, the team has decided to go ahead with special premieres in Karnataka and select regions, keeping the buzz alive.

According to industry reports, premieres will officially start from 5 PM today in Karnataka. With theaters allowing up to two special shows in the evening, the film is technically getting a half-day head start before its official release. This move is seen as a strategic advantage, especially if the response is strong.

The early evening shows will conclude by around 9 PM, ensuring that first reviews and audience reactions hit social media well ahead of tomorrow’s festival release. Positive word of mouth could create a strong pull for audiences and boost ticket sales right from day one. With the film already carrying solid pre-release buzz, the combination of early shows and festival advantage may turn Kantara: Chapter 1 into a strong box office performer.
