Kantara Review and Analysis - A Video Essay
A small brief description about this movie:
Kantara is a Kannada-language film that focuses on a plot involving a conflict of land acquisition and the involvement of demigods to the story.
The film's highlight is how it represents the Tulu culture of celebrating the Bhuta Kola and its traditional dynamics around the film's plot.
Kantara made rounds around the Indian Cinema's space, and now it's being acknowledged around the world too by cinephiles.
Though Kantara have a predictable and common plot about the war between two groups of the same village and who wins the war, but -
The greatest strength of Kantara is the cinematic and thematic elements present in the whole film and how Rishab Shetty, the main lead along with the writer and director of Kantara, represents the Tulu culture of Bhuta Kola in the movie.
Here's my take on "What's the Value of Kantara" for so many people in India, especially the people who are accustomed to the ritual of Bhuta Kola in Karnataka and other areas.
This video gives a brief description of the Bhuta Kola, then went on to give review with how Rishab Shetty materialised this movie and provides an analysis on the story of Kantara, eventually summing up with a conclusion.

Rani Abbakka Chowta - The fearless queen
There were at least two queens named Abbakka Chowta who ruled over the small kingdom of Ullal in India. Both fought against the Portuguese during the 16th and 17th century and held them at bay. They are remembered in legend as the same character: “Abhaya rani”, the fearless queen, and considered as the first Indian women freedom fighters against European colonialism.
These queens belonged to the Chowta dynasty, ruling Ullal, a port on coastal Canara. Power was passed through the female line in this dynasty, the son of the ruler’s sister becoming the next king. Since king Thirumala Raya III had no nephew, he gave his niece Abbakka an education usually reserved to male heirs. She learnt military science, sword fighting and archery. Local legends paint her as a visionary child, gifted in art and science. At that time, the Portuguese dominated the trade in the Indian Ocean and had installed a string of forts on the West coast of India. In 1526, the Portuguese took possession of a port close to Ullal.
A marriage was arranged for her, but as Abbakka kept living in her own home with her husband visiting her occasionally. She gave birth to three children who all stayed with her. Legends say that Abbakka parted with her husband because of her desire to fight off the Portuguese. She reportedly sent back him her wedding jewelry, which resulted in a divorce.
This Abbakka is believed to have ruled from 1544 to 1582. She refused to accept the Portuguese embargo on her ships and to pay the tribute they demanded. In 1555, the Portuguese sent an admiral against Ullal, but Abbakka fought back and the battle ended in a truce. In 1567, the Portuguese army attacked Ullal again. They managed to capture the city, but the queen hid in a mosque. She led 200 soldiers in a night attack, which resulted in the Portuguese general as well as 70 of their men. The invaders retreated to their ships, but she followed them and killed their admiral.
In 1581, Ullal faced another attack by a grand armada. The queen led her soldiers from the front, exhorting them to fight for their land. She, however, died during the invasion.
Another queen named Abbakka succeeded her and won a decisive victory by attacking and burning the Portuguese fleet in 1618. When the Portuguese captured one of her rich ships, she had her soldiers sneak into their boats and burn them, inflicting heavy losses. Her fame spread across the Indian Ocean. Italian traveler Pietro della Valle met her, noting the simplicity of her retinue as well as her dedication to her work. He gave the following description of her:
“Her complexion was that of a natural Ethiopian(...) She was girded at the waist, with a plain piece of white cotton and barefoot (...) From the waist upward the queen was naked. In brief, her aspect and habit represented rather a dirty Kitchen wench, or Laundress, than a delicate and noble Queen; (...)Yet the Queen shew’d her quality much more in speaking than by her presence; for her voice was very graceful in comparison with her Person, and she spoke like a prudent and judicious Woman. I imagine she was handsome in her Youth; and, indeed, the Report is that she hath been much of a Lady, of majestic beauty, though stern rather than gentle.”
For other valiant Indian queens who fought against colonialism, you can read about Rani Velu Nachiyar, Rani Avantibai and Rani Lakshmibai
