Director Boyapati Srinu has taken a unique approach to editing this teaser. Every frame is visually grand and powerful, from beginning to end.

Industry rumours suggest that the man in the shot is none other than Aadhi Pinisetty, a well-known actor in both the Tamil and Telugu film industries. His dramatic transformation in the teaser has made him nearly unrecognisable. Aadhi is reportedly playing the role of an Aghori or Naga Sadhu, someone deeply knowledgeable in Tantric practices. The film is said to revolve around a strong face-off between his character and Balakrishna's. (News18 Telugu)

This speculation has caught fire on social media, but the real story will only be confirmed once the film hits theatres. Aadhi has portrayed powerful antagonists before when he played the villain in Sarrainodu and took on Pawan Kalyan in Agnyaathavaasi. His ability to command the screen in such roles is well established. (News18 Telugu)

One of Aadhi's most acclaimed performances came in Rangasthalam, where he played Kumar Babu, the elder brother of Ram Charan's character. His portrayal was so natural and convincing that many felt he didn't just act the part, he lived it. Since then, he has consistently taken on key roles, both as a villain and as a supporting actor, showcasing his versatility. (News18 Telugu)
