This humorous take on a pressing civic issue taps into the growing online and offline sentiment that, despite ongoing repair efforts, Bengaluru’s potholes remain a significant concern for commuters. The meme’s timely appearance has amplified its impact, striking a chord with netizens who are increasingly vocal about road maintenance and civic infrastructure.
Social media users have lauded the meme’s originality and humor. Many have commented on its widespread appeal, with one user declaring it the “winner of this template,” while another noted, “Seen many memes on this pic but this one has won the trend.”
About Kantara: Chapter 1
The film ‘Kantara: Chapter 1’ stars Rishab Shetty in the lead role, with Rukmini Vasanth portraying Princess Kanakavathi. Vasanth shared her enthusiasm for the role, stating:
“For me, Princess Kanakavathi has been one of the most special journeys of my life. It wasn’t just about looking regal, it was more about carrying a piece of our land, our folklore, and our faith in every movement. I think that’s why the trailer feels so powerful, because it’s the spirit of an entire culture shining through the glimpses. Kanakavathi is royal, yes, but she is also human and vulnerable. I had to surrender to her grace, but also to her grit. I can’t wait for people to meet her in theatres.”
The recently released trailer for ‘Kantara: Chapter 1’ has already generated significant buzz, offering glimpses into the film’s compelling narrative and deep cultural roots.
