Just a day before release, Hombale Films has dropped the much-awaited “Rebel” song from Kantara: Chapter 1 — and it’s already stirring up a storm.
Sung by none other than Diljit Dosanjh, the track captures the intensity of rebellion with a mix of raw energy and soul. Fans are calling it a perfect prelude to what’s being touted as one of the grandest cinematic events of the year.
In the video, Diljit Dosanjh doesn’t just lend his voice but also makes an appearance, amplifying the world Rishab Shetty has created. The song is edgy, pulsating, and unapologetically fierce. Simply put, it feels like a war cry before the film even hits theatres.
A Cultural Epic Reimagined
After the phenomenal success of Kantara in 2022, expectations for its prequel were sky-high. With Rishab Shetty once again at the helm, Kantara: Chapter 1 promises folklore, faith, and spectacle on a scale rarely attempted in Indian cinema.
The film’s trailer had already hinted at spine-tingling visuals and an immersive narrative. But the “Rebel” song, with Diljit Dosanjh’s thundering voice, has given fans that final push of excitement. The makers posted on social media: “A voice that roars rebellion, a beat that shakes your soul. The Rebel song from Kantara: Chapter 1 just got extra special with Diljit Dosanjh’s magic.”
Scale Like Never Before
This isn’t just another release for Hombale Films. The team has mounted the project on an enormous scale, including a massive war sequence filmed over 45 days with 3,000 people and over 500 trained fighters. Music director B. Ajaneesh Loknath, cinematographer Arvind Kashyap, and production designer Vinesh Banglan have joined forces to bring Shetty’s vision to life.
The film opens worldwide tomorrow, October 2, across Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil, Bengali, and English. With Diljit Dosanjh’s Rebel setting the tone, the countdown to Kantara: Chapter 1 feels louder than ever.
