‘Kaantha’ teaser: Dulquer stuns with visual drama

Dulquer Salmaan celebrated his birthday with a special surprise for fans — the release of the teaser for his upcoming film Kaantha. Set in the 1950s, the teaser offers a visually striking and emotionally intense glimpse into what appears to be a powerful drama. Directed by Selvamani Selvaraj, the film also stars Rana Daggubati, Bhagyashri Borse, and Samuthirakani in key roles.

The teaser opens on the set of a horror film, where Samuthirakani’s character is preparing for the first shot. Tensions rise when he discovers that Dulquer’s character, Chandran, is part of the cast — hinting at a long-standing rift between the two. What follows is a strong build-up of emotional conflict and ego clashes between the characters, framed in a unique visual style that blends monochrome and color sequences.

Dani Sanchez-Lopez’s cinematography stands out, painting a vivid picture of the period setting. The teaser's editing by Lewllyn Anthony Gonsalvez and background score by Jhanu Chanthar further elevate the impact, adding layers of mystery and tension without revealing too much.

Fans have flooded social media with praise for Dulquer’s intense performance and the film’s grand look. With its intriguing premise and impressive visuals, Kaantha is shaping up to be one of Dulquer’s most awaited releases. The teaser has set the tone, and excitement is building fast as the film heads toward release.
