Tamil filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj, known for redefining modern Tamil cinema with blockbusters like Vikram and Leo, is now stepping in front of the camera. The director is set to make his acting debut opposite the talented Wamiqa Gabbi in Arun Matheswaran’s upcoming film titled DC. The announcement came through a striking teaser unveiled by Sun Pictures, offering fans a first glimpse at this unexpected and exciting pairing.
The teaser introduces Lokesh Kanagaraj as ‘Devadas’ and Wamiqa Gabbi as ‘Chandra’. Sun Pictures shared the teaser on social media with the caption, “Sun Pictures proudly presents #DC starring @lokesh.kanagaraj & @wamiqagabbi. Directed by @thatswatitis. An @anirudhofficial musical.” The one-minute, eight-second clip sets an intense tone — Lokesh appears bloodied and rugged, walking down a dim, narrow hallway with long hair and a thick beard, radiating a raw, menacing energy that immediately grabs attention.
Wamiqa Gabbi, on the other hand, delivers a powerful visual punch in a fierce and commanding avatar, her confidence matching Lokesh’s brooding intensity as she walks toward him. The chemistry between the two sparks curiosity, hinting at a complex dynamic between their characters, Devadas and Chandra. While the teaser keeps the plot tightly under wraps, its gritty tone suggests that DC will be high on drama, emotion, and style.
Written and directed by Arun Matheswaran, DC is produced under the banner of Sun Pictures and also stars Sanjana Krishnamoorthy in a key role. The film’s music is composed by Anirudh Ravichander, whose signature sound promises to elevate the tension and mood of this gripping cinematic world.
The teaser has left fans electrified, not only for its striking visuals but also for the novelty of seeing Lokesh Kanagaraj swap the director’s chair for an acting role. His strong screen presence and intensity have already won praise, with audiences eager to see how he performs in front of the camera. With its intriguing pairing, stylish presentation, and a mystery-laden narrative, DC is one of Tamil cinema’s most anticipated upcoming releases. The official release date is yet to be announced.
