Rishab Shetty and Hombale Films' 'Kantara: Chapter 1' has achieved a major milestone in its box office journey, having crossed a monumental Rs 500 crore gross worldwide. The film is standing tall with a total gross collection of Rs 509.25 crore in its first extended week, making its Rs 1,000 crore journey look easier and possible.
Written and directed by Shetty, the film stands as the second-biggest Kannada film worldwide, only after Yash's 'KGF: Chapter 2. Once it crosses the mammoth Rs 1,000 crore benchmark, the challenge to go past 'KGF 2' at the global box office is expected to look like a cakewalk.
The announcement of the film crossing Rs 500 crore was made by the makers on social media, where they shared a thrilling poster announcing the worldwide collection of 'Kantara: Chapter 1'
