At the event, NTR praised Shetty and said the film would have been impossible without his efforts. He said, “There's no path to go to the temple there. They made one because they put up a set to shoot. It's humanly impossible. If it was not for Rishabh Sir, if it was not for the team that he believed in, I really don't think anything would've been possible for Kantara Chapter 1.”
