The film has now been released on Amazon Prime Video. The platform shared a post on social media stating:
"The legend returns to where it all began—Kantara Chapter 1, now streaming on Prime Video!" However, the film is only available in the Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam languages.
The absence of a Hindi-dubbed version has angered Hindi-speaking viewers.
