Kuberaa trailer:The trailer for Sekhar Kammula's Dhanush, Nagarjuna, Rashmika Mandanna and Jim Sarbh-starrer Kuberaa was released at a pre-release event held in Hyderabad on Sunday. SS Rajamouli was the chief guest. Expectations are high on the film as it's Dhanush's debut in Telugu and Sekhar's second film in Tamil after Anaamika. (Also Read: Kuberaa producer claims Prime Video threatened to cut ₹10 crore from deal if film isn't released on time) The trailer begins with Dhanush, who plays a beggar, wondering about the value of crores. Nagarjuna states that in this country, money and power work, not ethics or justice, as history has shown. While supportive of Dhanush, he also seems to have a grey side. Rashmika's character seems to be someone whom Dhanush's character has faith in, despite her insisting otherwise. She also believes the rich and powerful will always rule the world. A character even wonders how a beggar threw a whole government into risk. It ends with Dhanush challenging the status quo. The pre-release event of Kuberaa was initially scheduled to be held on 13 June but was postponed after the Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad. The film's team made the announcement and wrote, 'The pre-release event of Kuberaa, scheduled for tomorrow, has been postponed in light of the tragic Ahmedabad flight crash. We stand in solidarity with the grieving families.' They also added, 'Our hearts go out to all affected by the devastating plane crash in Ahmedabad. We extend our sincere condolences to the families and friends of the victims. May you find strength in this difficult time.' Kuberaa is slated for release on 20 June and is produced by Suniel Narang and Puskur Rammohan Rao of Amigos Creations. The film has music composed by Devi Sri Prasad. Dhanush, who essayed the role of a beggar in the film, recalled shooting at a dumpyard for hours. At the launch of the song Pippi Pippi Dum Dum Dum, he said, 'To see another part of the world, a sight which you're not exposed to... You're always in your comfort zone, like you do only what's convenient, you're protected. I come from very humble roots.' He also said that shooting for Kuberaa took him back to his childhood, 'Today, I'm here by God's grace. I've seen that, and to go back there to see that world again, it was very enlightening and nostalgic. I'm very thankful to this film for so many reasons, but it takes me back to my childhood as well as one of them.'

Kannappa trailer: Vishnu Manchu promises visually striking spectacle with Akshay Kumar, Prabhas and Mohanlal's powerful cameos
Kannappa trailer: 'Only if we take that stone and throw it into the forest will their madness subside,' declares warrior Thinnadu (Vishnu Manchu), referring to the Lord Shiva idol of his clan. Far away, in Mount Kailash, the divine abode from which they observe all that happens in the world, Goddess Parvati (Kajal Aggarwal) asks her consort Lord Shiva (Akshay Kumar), 'What makes you believe that such a person (Thinnadu, a staunch non-believer) will eventually become your devoted follower?' With a gentle smile, he replies, 'Just like you, I too am waiting for that moment.' Among the many glimpses of Kannappa's world offered in the newly released trailer, this moment stands out as it forms the emotional crux of the story. Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, the film follows the transformation of Thinnadu, a fearless warrior who sees no point in worshipping a 'stone with no ears', into Kannappa, a staunch devotee of Lord Shiva. Although he is a non-believer, evil forces with their sights set on the sacred Vayu Lingam in Thinnadu's village know they must defeat him to claim it, as he will do anything for his people. As Thinnadu engages in the battle of a lifetime, he encounters Rudra (Prabhas), who serves as a divine link between him and Lord Shiva. As struggles intensify and he faces unprecedented conflicts in life, Thinnadu comes to profound realisations. The trailer ends by showing him embracing a stone lingam and declaring, 'I will never leave you from now on. This is Thinnadu's promise.' Watch Kannappa trailer here: The trailer promises that Kannappa will feature rich visuals, enhanced by heavy visual effects and anchored by a strong emotional core, thus delivering a unique cinematic experience.
