The first single from Dude, Pradeep Ranganathan's upcoming film, has been released amid much anticipation. Titled 'Oorum Blood', the song has been composed and sung by Sai Abhyankkar with lyrics by Paal Dabba.

The high-energy song has visuals from various parts of the city including prominent beaches, Mount Road, Omandurar Hospital and others. The song also gives a peek into how the colourful video, featuring Pradeep and Mamitha Baiju, and a host of others, was made.

Dude is Pradeep's fourth film as the lead. He has previously headlined Love Today, which was released last year in which he served as the director; Ashwath Marimuthu's Dragon, and Vignesh Shivan's Love Insurance Kompany (LIK), which will be released in October.

The film, also featuring Mamitha Baiju, Sarathkumar, Hridhu Haroon, Rohini and Dravid Selvam, is bankrolled by Mythri Movie Makers and will also release in Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi, apart from Tamil. This film is the production company's second Tamil film after Ajith Kumar's latest hit, Good Bad Ugly.

Keerthiswaran had earlier worked as an assistant director for Sudha Kongara in Soorarai Pottru, her segments in Paava Kadhaigal and Putham Pudhu Kaalai.

Dude has cinematography by Niketh Bommi, and cuts by Barath Vikraman. The film is set for a Diwali release and will clash with Mari Selvaraj's Bison, starring Dhruv Vikram, and Pradeep's own Love Insurance Kompany, helmed by Vignesh Shivan which releases a few days prior to the festive occasion.
