Kantara OTT Release: Fans Can Finally See Varaha Roopam In Rishab Shetty Starrer? Court Rejects Thaikudam Bridge’s Plea

The Kannada film Kantara had a phenomenal run at the box office upon its release on September 30. While the film became a blockbuster soon due to positive word of mouth but landed in controversy after Kerala-based rock band, Thaikkudam Bridge, accused the makers of copying their song Navarasam and took legal action against them.

After the theatrical run, the Kannada film was released on Amazon Prime Video on November 24. Fans were thrilled to watch the film online but they were disappointed to see the changes that were made to the song Varaha Roopam, owing to the accusation made by the Thaikkudam Bridge.

However, now it seems fans can finally watch the original version of Varaha Roopam in Kantara as Kozhikode District Court in Kerala dismissed the band’s plea citing lack of jurisdiction. As per the India Today report, the court passed an interim order against the Varaha Roopam song stands canceled.
