The trailer of Pradeep Ranganathan’s upcoming film Dude, directed by debutant Keerthiswaran, has taken social media by storm.
Since its announcement, Dude has carried massive expectations, especially after Pradeep’s back-to-back blockbusters Love Today and Dragon. Fans say the trailer looks highly entertaining and believe the actor-director is on track for his third 100-crore hit.
Viewers feel the film, like his previous ones, balances humour with strong emotion. They noticed glimpses of heartfelt moments in the trailer, similar to what made Love Today and Dragon resonate deeply with audiences.
Many also praised the chemistry between Pradeep Ranganathan and Mamitha Baiju, calling it refreshing. They believe Dude could mark another major breakthrough for Mamitha after Premalu.
However, not everyone is convinced. Some say Pradeep’s movies seem repetitive, claiming Dude’s trailer feels similar to his earlier works, with only the heroine changing each time.
Despite that, Dude continues to ride high on buzz. With a Diwali release giving it a strong box office window, industry watchers predict it could become Pradeep Ranganathan’s biggest career hit if it connects emotionally with audiences like his past films.
All eyes are now on whether Dude can meet the sky-high expectations and extend Pradeep’s winning streak.
