Dulquer Salmaan and Rana Daggubati are currently gearing up for the grand release of their period drama Kaantha, scheduled to hit theatres on November 14. However, just days before its release, the film has been dragged to court by the grandson of veteran Tamil actor MK Thyagaraja Bhagavathar. The petitioner claimed that the film portrays Bhagavathar in a defamatory manner and has demanded a stay on its release. The court has issued notices to the producers, including Dulquer Salmaan and Rana Daggubati, seeking an explanation.
