DQ fans assemble! The versatile actor had something special in store on the occasion of his birthday. The actor unveiled the much-awaited teaser of his upcoming film ‘Kaantha’ on Monday (July 28).The announcement came with a warm invitation from Dulquer himself, who posted, “The road to release begins with the first tease at 3PM tomorrow. Join us for the official (Tamil) teaser release of @kaanthafilm.” As the clock struck 3 PM, the teaser dropped, offering a gripping first look into what promises to be one of the most intense drama films of the season.Intense drama meets visual splendourThe teaser of ‘Kaantha’ offers more than just glimpses. The teaser draws you into a world marked by depth, conflict. Alongside Dulquer Salmaan, the movie also features the actors Rana Daggubati, Bhagyashri Borse, and Samuthirakani. The teaser starts with a film crew all set to shoot a horror film, where Samuthirakani asks for the first shot. He finds out that the actor Chandran (Dulquer Salmaan) is part of the film. The shots then cut to Dulquer’s character, who appears to be preparing for his role. It is revealed that Samuthirakani and Dulquer’s characters share an intense past, which has caused them to not speak for a long time. Later we see an intense ego fight between Dulquer and Samuthirakani’s character. It’s the visual scale which is cut between monochrome and colour that truly elevates the teaser. With Dani Sanchez-Lopez behind the camera, the period setting is brought to life with a striking palette and meticulously crafted scenes.Netizens react – Performer incomingThe teaser has indeed impressed the audiences. One comment read, “waiting for another peak performance.” Another comment read, “Perfomer incoming.” A third one praised DQ’s acting, as the comment read, “Peak level acting.”Watch the teaser here.
Backed by magnificent craft, built for emotionDirected by Selvamani Selvaraj, ‘Kaantha’ brings together a technical crew as compelling as its cast. Jhanu Chanthar’s music adds mood and mystery, while Lewllyn Anthony Gonsalvez is in charge of editing. The teaser doesn’t give away too much—but that’s precisely where its strength lies. Overall, ‘Kaantha’ is surely one of the most awaited films of Dulquer Salmaan and the expectations are high for all the right reasons.
