Nag Ashwin Reviews Kuberaa Trailer and Leaves Everyone Shocked
The trailer of Sekhar Kammula’s Kuberaa, featuring Dhanush, Rashmika Mandanna, and Nagarjuna, has been generating solid buzz since its launch. But what truly caught fans and industry insiders off guard was the surprising reaction from none other than Nag Ashwin—the acclaimed director behind Kalki 2898 AD.
Ashwin’s Reaction: “Sekhar Garu 2.0”
Speaking about the trailer on social media, Nag Ashwin described it as “Sekhar Garu 2.0”, a nod to Kammula’s bold departure from his usual style. Known for his feel-good narratives and emotional arcs, Kammula seems to have ventured into darker and more intense cinematic territory with Kuberaa, and Ashwin took note.
Ashwin didn’t hold back, saying he had been waiting to see this side of Kammula’s storytelling. The praise felt authentic and spontaneous, not just the usual industry politeness. Coming from a director with a visionary approach to cinema, his approval added significant weight to the buzz surrounding Kuberaa.

The trailer launch event featured powerful glimpses of Dhanush in a rugged avatar, Rashmika in a compelling emotional role, and Nagarjuna in a commanding presence. With a fresh concept and gritty visual tone, the trailer signals a major shift in Sekhar Kammula’s storytelling style.
Nag Ashwin’s reaction fueled further excitement, elevating the trailer’s visibility and boosting audience curiosity. His comment not only amplified the film’s hype but also lent credibility to its artistic ambition.
