From the word go, the movie hooks its audience deep into Kantara’s magnificent and spellbinding mystical forest. It profoundly explores the age-old topic of land and who it belongs to, the king, the indigenous people, or the government. The movie’s raw depiction of class politics and the struggles born from it, deeply rooted in our Indian society, cannot be ignored.

Whose land is it anyways? Does the land belong to the kings before us, the government, or the indigenous people who live there? Do we need to claim something that is not ours, by right? Kantara dives deep into the insidious need of man to claim something that has never belonged to them in the first place. The indigenous people try hard to protect their land and their culture. They are naïve, raw, and direct and believe that they are one with nature and thus are entitled to whatever the forest offers.

Rishab Shetty bedazzles us as the director and lead actor of this magnificent masterpiece. His performance is mesmerizing, to say the least. The film is set in the coastal land of Karnataka and packs an ensemble cast of Kishore, Achyuth Kumar, Pramod Shetty, and Sapthami Gowda. The movie binds us with its sturdy performance, gripping storytelling, and sumptuous spectacle that leaves you wanting more.

Kantara was to make its OTT debut by the 4th of November on Amazon Prime, but the date has been pushed forward, considering the fantastic box office streak that it currently enjoys. It stands tall with its box office earnings surpassing KGF Chapter 2, and its IMDB rating of 9.1 makes it the highest-rated Indian movie of all time. Kantara continues to achieve new milestones daily and is an aesthetic cinematic experience for all movie lovers.

Chiang Mai
Chiang Mai, the northern capital of Thailand, is always one of the best cities to visit for its many festivals throughout the year. Loy Krathong is another festival that takes the city incredibly seriously with lots of food, parties and celebrations throughout the ancient city.

The Lanna Ritual is one of these festivities, with scores of Thais and foreigners alike coming together to let go of the wind-blown, floating lanterns.

Tak -Loy Krathong Sai Festival
The Loy Krathong festival in Tak is celebrated as Loy Krathong Sai. One of the things that makes Loy Krathong Sai so unique in Tak is the way the Krathongs are prepared. Instead of making them out of Styrofoam, the locals in the hunt for baked bread or banana leaves are made from coconut shells. The shells are filled with wax to hold the wick in place, effectively turning the entire krathong into a giant floating candle. The main attraction of the Loy Krathong festival is the competition organized among the local community.

People help each other thread coconut krathongs together and launch them down the river in a series of candles, creating an extraordinarily beautiful display of light.
