Dulquer Salmaan’s work front
Dulquer Salmaan was last seen in the movie Kaantha, directed by Selvamani Selvaraj. The film follows superstar TK Mahadevan, who is locked in a long-standing ego-driven feud with his former mentor, filmmaker Ayya.
When Ayya attempts to revive his shelved film Saantha, Mahadevan uses his influence to take over the project and reshape it into Kaantha to suit his own image. As tensions rise, a mysterious death on the film set turns the story into a thriller, with Inspector Devaraj investigating the case while Mahadevan and Ayya’s rivalry intensifies.
Looking ahead, DQ is also filming for the movie titled Aakasam Lo Oka Tara. The upcoming adventure drama film stars Shruti Haasan and debutant Satvika Veeravalli as the co-leads and will be released in multiple languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Hindi.
