In a recent interview Dulquer spoke about Ajith Kumar, saying “I’ve seen many videos of Ajith sir riding bikes on race tracks”.

“He inspired me a lot when I used to compete in F3 and F4 races. I really admire how he turned his love for bikes into a way of life. It’s amazing how he’s living his dream”.

Kaantha marks Dulquer’s return to Tamil cinema after Hey Sinamika (2022). The film also features Ravindra Vijay, Nizhalkal Ravi, Bhagavathy Perumal and others.
