The spotlight was firmly on actress Rukmini Vasanth, who has been creating waves across industries, while NTR Jr. graced the occasion as the special guest, amplifying the excitement and grandeur of the night.

Speaking at the event, Rukmini Vasanth expressed her heartfelt gratitude to NTR Jr. for his consistent encouragement and support. “I am extremely happy to be here for the pre-release event of Kantara. Most of all, I want to thank NTR Sir. The support you have given our team and this film from the very beginning has been incredible. You treated it like your own project and brought your energy and encouragement to every single event. Thank you for being here in person today. I also want to thank the Telugu audience for your support for me across all my films, in every language, means so much.

Rukmini also took a moment to acknowledge the creative force behind the film—director Rishab Shetty—and the backing of Hombale Films. “Thank you, Rishab Sir, for giving me the role of Kanakavathi. This film is very special to me, and I hope all of you will enjoy it. I am also grateful to Hombale for giving me opportunities—first with Bagheera and now with Kantara. I have grown so much through this journey, and I sincerely thank you for that.”

Adding a touch of humor and charm to the evening, Rukmini lit up the stage when asked to describe Rishab Shetty in one word, calling him “Divine.” When the same question was posed about NTR Jr., she quipped, “One word is not enough… Dictionary!” sparking laughter and applause from the audience.

The event captured the passion, camaraderie, and excitement surrounding the film, setting the stage for its grand release on October 2nd. Rukmini Vasanth will next be seen in TOXIC and NTR Neel, starring Yash and NTR Jr., two of the most anticipated films of the coming year.
