It is well known that director Lokesh Kanagaraj is making his acting debut with Arun Matheswaran's upcoming film DC. After a title glimpse which introduced the Coolie filmmaker's character as Devadas and Wamiqa Gabbi's role as Chandra, the makers have now unveiled a new glimpse showcasing more elements and characters from the action thriller's blood-soaked world.
The new video opens with Sanjana Krishnamoorthy taking the mic as singer Parvathi. The saree-clad woman with kohl-rimmed eyes also seemed to be playing Devadas' romantic interest besides Chandra. Further, we see these two women witnessing Devadas' troubled and disruptive world, and one of them even joins him in his mission by planting explosives and shooting people. The glimpse ends with Devadas carrying what looked like a dead woman in a car.
Plot details and actors who are a part of the extended cast have not yet been revealed yet.
Anirudh composes music for DC. Arun Ranjan has written the additonal screenplay, with dialogues by Arun and Franklin Jacob. The crew of the film includes Mukesh G as the director of photography, GK Prasanna as the editor, S Kannan as the art director, and PC Stunts handling stunt choreography. Sun Pictures is backing DC, in their second collaboration with Lokesh after the Rajinikanth-starrer Coolie. With the film progressing at a brisk pace, DC is scheduled for release in theatres this summer.
Arun's last release was 2024's Captain Miller, which starred Dhanush and Priyanka Mohan in the lead. Arun will also direct music composer Ilaiyaraaja's biopic, with Dhanush in the lead. Putting an end to rumours, the director's team had recently confirmed he is still a part of the project and that pre-production work on the biopic has been completed.
