Actor-director Rishab Shetty has issued an apology over a controversial poster related to “Kantara Chapter 1.” The poster, shared by a fan handle, urged audiences not to enter theaters after smoking or eating non-vegetarian food, claiming the film carried devotional elements and theaters screening it should be treated like temples.
The poster quickly sparked criticism and was taken down. When questioned by a journalist, Rishab Shetty clarified that the poster was neither created by his team nor by the production house, Hombale Films.
Still, he apologized on behalf of his team, stressing that such messaging did not originate from them.
Meanwhile, the trailer of “Kantara Chapter 1” was released yesterday to mixed reviews. The film, produced by Hombale Films, is slated for release on October 2, 2025.
