Kaantha

Set in the 1950s, Kaantha follows Ayya, a talented director who turns T. K. Mahadevan from an ordinary man into the star known as Nata Chakravarthy. A decade later, their relationship breaks down, yet they reunite for Ayya’s dream project titled Shaantha. Mahadevan’s ego disrupts the process when he changes the title to Kaantha and takes control of the direction. The debut heroine Raja Kumari listens only to Ayya, which increases the tension on the set. Conflicts grow every day, and during the climax shoot, a murder occurs.
