The Kantara team underwent extensive training in meipayattu (body conditioning exercises), chuvadu (basic steps), kolthari (weapon techniques with sticks) and ankathari (sword and spear combat). For each scene, he consulted Vipin Das to better understand the required physicality and movements. Several members of the Athma Kalari team – Gokul, Gopika, Vigilesh, and Anushree – were cast in notable roles in the film. Vipin Das considers the experience of travelling and training with Shetty a significant milestone in his Kalari career. Currently, Vipin Das is choreographing action sequences for Tovino Thomas’s upcoming film Pallichattambi.
