Rishab Shetty, the sensation from Sandalwood, became a household name with his massive 2022 hit, Kantara. As the prequel to the blockbuster prepares for its release on October 2, he made a special trip to Mumbai for the event.
Visiting the Maximum City again brought back some memories for Rishab from his struggling days. He revealed that he used to work as an office boy for a production banner in the Andheri West region in Mumbai.
“Mumbai is extremely special for me because back in 2008, I used to work as an office boy for a production house in Andheri West. I was the driver of one of the producers, and today, with the power of cinema, I am sitting here, getting so much recognition, love, respect, and blessings.”
“We used to have Vada Pav on the streets of Andheri West and never thought I would make it here. Cinema, which we see as God, being an artist has brought me here today, and I am grateful for that,” he recalled.
Kantara Chapter 1 releases in theatres on October 2. It is presented by Homable and also stars Gulshan Devaiah and Rukmini Vasanth.
