Actor Gulshan Devaiah recently posted a fun behind-the-scenes snapshot from the hit movie “Kantara: Chapter 1,” playfully referring to his on-set pals as “good for nothing fellas.” The photo captures Gulshan and his friends, in character, enjoying a water dip, striking a pose for the camera.
In the caption, Gulshan humorously labeled the group as “Good ‘for nothing’ Fella #BTS from a cut scene #kantarachapter1.” “Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1” is a grand mythological action drama helmed by Rishab Shetty, who also portrays key roles like Berme, Mayakara, Annappa, and Kaadubettu Shiva.
The film features prominent actors like Jayaram, Rukmini Vasanth, and Gulshan Devaiah. Serving as a prequel to the 2022 film Kantara, this installment delves into the roots of the traditions and ancestral conflicts introduced in the original movie.
Set against the backdrop of pre-colonial coastal Karnataka, the prequel weaves regional folklore and spirituality into a storyline that examines humanity’s connection with nature. The film emerged as a massive commercial hit at the box office, ranking as the second-highest-grossing Kannada film to date, the second-highest-grossing Indian film of 2025, and among the top-grossing Indian films ever.
