Multilingual Thriller Gears Up For Global Release

The movie, jointly produced by Suniel Narang and Puskur Ram Mohan Rao under the banners Sree Venkateswara Cinemas LLP and Amigos Creations Pvt Ltd, was officially announced in June 2021 under the working title D51, marking Dhanush's 51st lead role. With Nagarjuna joining the cast, the title briefly changed to DNS, a reference to Dhanush, Nagarjuna, and Sekhar Kammula, before finally being titled Kuberaa in early 2024.

Principal photography began in February 2024 and took place primarily in Hyderabad and Mumbai. The technical crew includes cinematographer Niketh Bommireddy, editor Karthika Srinivas R, and production designer Thota Tharani. Music is composed by Devi Sri Prasad, marking his third collaboration with Dhanush and his first with Kammula.

In India, Kuberaa had its official pre-release event on June 15 at Hyderabad's JRC Convention Centre. Director Sekhar Kammula and lead actors Dhanush, Nagarjuna, and Rashmika Mandanna were present. The trailer was launched at the event by filmmaker S. S. Rajamouli and was subsequently made available online.

The promotional rollout has been steady, with two singles-"Poyiraa Mama" (also released as "Poyivaa Nanba") and "Anaganaga Kadha" ("Kadha Kadha Kadhai")-already out. A teaser titled Trance of Kuberaa was released on May 25, giving audiences an early look into the film's tone and themes.

Kuberaa is scheduled to release worldwide on June 20, 2025. With U.S. bookings showing early momentum, attention will now turn to how the film performs closer to its release date across various territories.
