India, Oct. 2 -- Malayalam actor Jayaram's second Kannada film after 2023's Ghost is Kantara Chapter 1, the Rishab Shetty led prequel to the 2022 blockbuster, Kantara. Jayaram plays King Rajashekara of Bangra, whose interest and intentions with Kantara remain unclear until the very end. Unlike Ghost, Jayaram did not have to worry about his Kannada diction, as the team got someone to dub for him, so all that he needed to focus on was the dual shades of his character and creating maximum impact.
