In recent years, it's hard to deny that sequels have been a big part of building up excitement before a movie comes out and bringing in huge numbers at the box office, often without a lot of advertising. So, it shouldn't be a surprise that artists want to build on what their predecessors have already done well.

The huge success of 'KGF Chapter 2' across the country is a great example, and now the second part of Kantara is set to do the same. Even though 'Kantara 2' hasn't even started filming yet, all the talk is about how much it will cost. The first part was made on a budget of about 16 crores, which is a small amount. This smart way of spending money made the movie a huge hit, putting it in the record books of all-time hits. Now, the movie is said to be going in a very rich direction.

The new word on the street is that 'Kantara 2' will have a staggering budget of 125 crores, which is an absolutely mind-boggling number. Compared to the 16 crores that were set aside for part 1, this is a huge rise of around 681%, which has left us speechless.

When we look back at the first part, we can see that it made history by making a huge 410 crores at the box office around the world. In its home state of Karnataka, it even had more visitors than the well-known 'KGF Chapter 2'.
