Moviegoers are saying
Kaantha emerges as a bold genre-bending experiment that divides audiences with its ambitious shift from slow-burn period drama to Agatha Christie-style whodunnit. While Dulquer Salmaan delivers what many consider his career-best performance as the charismatic 'Nadippu Chakravarthy,' the film's surface-level writing and jarring tonal shifts leave viewers either captivated by its meta-cinematic ambitions or frustrated by its unfulfilled potential.
