Kaantha story and cast 

The plot of Kaantha, which is set in the 1950s, centres on Samuthirakani and T.K. Mahadevan, a rising celebrity played by Dulquer Salmaan. Mahadevan's path to fame is shaped by Ayya. Friction goes beyond that, too, as the actor questions the mentor's authority and influences the film's artistic path. The break between the two gives Mahadevan more control over Ayya's dream project.
 
The ensemble cast of the historical drama Kaantha is led by Samuthirakani, who plays the esteemed director Ayya, and Dulquer Salmaan, who plays the up-and-coming actor T. K. Mahadevan. Bhagyashri Borse is the primary female lead, while Rana Daggubati plays a crucial part as well. 
 
Among the supporting cast are Bagavathi Perumal, Gayathrie, Nizhalgal Ravi, and Ravindra Vijay. Selvamani Selvaraj is the director and co-writer of the movie.
