Kubera: Nagarjuna’s First Look Video Revealed

Nagarjuna Akkineni, renowned for his rugged charm, was recently featured in the Telugu film Naa Saami Ranga and received mixed reviews. However, he is now gearing up for his next project, Kubera, alongside actor Dhanush. Following Dhanush’s first look, makers recently shared a glimpse of Nagarjuna’s appearance in the film. This has further sparked excitement among fans.

Directed by Sekhar Kammula, the film was initially introduced under the tentative project title, DNS. In March 2024, makers unveiled Dhanush’s first look for the film under the original film’s title, Kubera. According to Hindu Dharma, Kubera is a god of wealth and the king of yakshas (nature spirits). In contrast to the name, Dhanush’s first look depicts him as a beggar, generating curiosity among the audience.

The film boasts a star-studded cast, including Dhanush, Nagarjuna Akkineni, and Rashmika Mandanna in pivotal roles. Moreover, Kubera is produced under the joint banners of Sree Venkateswara Cinemas LLP and Amigos Creations. Devi Sri Prasad composed the film’s music, Niketh Bommi handled the cinematography, and Karthika Srinivas managed the film editing department.

Nagarjuna took to X (formerly Twitter) to unveil the first glimpse of himself for Kubera and wrote, “Here is my first look in.”

The fifty-one-second teaser showcases Nagarjuna in a blue shirt and black trousers, sporting a pair of glasses. He walks under an umbrella amidst heavy rain, surrounded by trucks full of Indian currency notes. As he steps forward, he spots a wet ₹500 ($6) note on the ground, then walks back towards the money bundle and puts his ₹500 note into the bundle. Reportedly, he is said to play the role of a CBI officer, set against the backdrop of financial corruption in Mumbai. Additionally, Kubera is expected to be released in both Tamil and Telugu dubs.

As a director, Sekhar is known for his consecutive hit projects such as Fidaa and Love Story. Now, seeing how his vision unfolds on the screen with Kubera will be intriguing. Stay tuned for more updates.
