Kantara Chapter 1's water can goof-up sparks meme fest

Entertainment Oct 12, 2025

Rishab Shetty's Kantara Chapter 1 is smashing it at the box office with over ₹500cr worldwide, but eagle-eyed fans spotted a funny slip-up—a modern plastic water can appears in a song set during the ancient Kadamba dynasty.
This sparked debates online about how such a prop ended up in a historical setting.

Gulshan Devaiah also reacted to the goof-up

Social media had a field day, with comments like, "Didn't know the Kadambas used plastic water cans."
Actor Gulshan Devaiah also chimed in after seeing someone impersonate Guliga Daiva at a screening, calling it a "cheap gimmick" and reminding fans to keep tributes genuine.
Despite all this, Kantara Chapter 1 is still going strong in theaters across languages and remains culturally relevant.
