The pan-India production house Mythri Movie Makers, known for backing several blockbusters, is now presenting an out-and-out entertainer, DNK, featuring Mouli Tanuj Prasanth in the lead role. Produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar, with Anil Yerneni as co-producer, the film marks the directorial debut of Sreenu Kambala. The teaser and first single have already generated good buzz, and with the film gearing up for a theatrical release on November 13, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja has unveiled its theatrical trailer.
The protagonist, who is addicted to online betting, lands in a financial crisis after taking multiple loans from online apps and borrowing money from his girlfriend as well. The situation takes a serious turn when his girlfriend’s father visits his house, demanding repayment and issuing a stern warning. With mounting debts and no way out, the protagonist and his friend resort to robbing wealthy houses. Meanwhile, the police launch an investigation into the series of robberies, suspecting a Bihari gang to be behind them.
Mouli Tanuj Prasanth, who shot to fame with his lively performance in Little Hearts, effortlessly owns his character and brings humour to every situation. His impeccable comedy timing is one of the major highlights. Sushmitha Shetty looks charming and innocent as his girlfriend, while Ali and Rajitha add to the fun as Mouli's parents. Babloo, Raghubabu, Priya, Gundu Sudharshan and Nanda Gopal are also seen in important roles, delivering their parts effectively.
Director Sreenu Kambala has picked a subject that strongly connects with the current generation, particularly youngsters falling prey to online betting and taking extreme measures to overcome their financial troubles. Beyond its humour, romance and robbery elements, the film also appears to carry a relevant social message. The way the director blends these contrasting elements promises an engaging entertainer with a meaningful core.
Cinematographer Suriya Balaji brings a slick visual appeal to the film, while music director Sinjith Yerramilli effectively captures both the fun-filled moments and the tension surrounding the robbery sequences. Sreedhar Sompally takes care of the editing, while Nagendra Guvvala handles the production design. Mythri Movie Makers has backed the film with impressive production values, befitting its genre.
With a storyline that is likely to resonate with Gen Z audiences as well as their parents, DNK promises to be an engaging theatrical entertainer.

“Ali (Father): డబ్బులు ఇవ్వకపోతే ఆన్లైన్ లో ప్రైవేట్ వీడియోస్ పెడతానని బెదిరిస్తున్నాడు.
Son (Mouli): బాగా నచ్చి ఉంటాయి.”
#DNK is aptly captioned as “Most Chillar Film of the Year,” and its tone, sensibilities and characterisation perfectly live up to that tagline.
It’s hilarious, packed with Mouli-style jabs, quirky humour and entertaining moments.
Looking forward to November 13! 👍
