While several big names from the entertainment fraternity have heaped praise on Rishab Shetty’s ‘Kantara’ there are a few who think the film is ‘overhyped’. Critically acclaimed filmmaker Abhiroop Basu who has worked with seasoned actors like Pankaj Tripathi and Adil Hussain is one such name among them.Abhiroop recently dropped a social media post taking a dig at Rishab’s film after watching it on the big screen. As expected, the post received outrage but the young filmmaker has no intention to change his stand.When ETimes reached out to Abhiroop he explained why he feels ‘Kantara’ is overhyped. “I feel it's a mockery of anyone's intelligence. Poorly made, regressive, loud, replete with tropes, no real character to root for, so called plot twists appear dishonest and merely serve as gimmicks, the protagonist's redemption arc is laughable and by the time the film reaches the much talked about climax, I am not really interested anymore,” shared the filmmaker.
