Our take

In the Kadamba reign, King Vijayendra meets his end in the mystical forest of Kantara, and his son Rajashekara seals the realm's borders in this Not Rated period epic. Prince Kulashekara later reopens them through a brutal massacre, and Berme crosses the divide chasing prosperity, sparking a clash of faith, power, and destiny. Action violence, strong language, and scary beats come with that conflict. ClearAge puts it around 16 for mature older teens and adults.
