Trance of Kuberaa: Nagarjuna Reveals Hidden Talent Behind Teaser Cut
The recently released Trance of Kuberaa teaser, featuring Dhanush and directed by Sekhar Kammula, has taken social media by storm. With its striking visuals and soul-stirring music by Devi Sri Prasad (DSP), the teaser has set high expectations for the upcoming film. But what truly caught attention was King Nagarjuna’s heartfelt reaction and the revelation he made during a recent interview with Galatta Plus.
Nagarjuna, who plays a pivotal role in Kuberaa, praised the teaser, calling it “brilliant.” He said,
“There are two people I want to congratulate. The first is DSP. I’ve known him since before his big break. He composed music for Manmadhudu, which became his first major hit. When I heard the Kuberaa teaser song, I went into a trance. In Telugu, we call that ‘Poonakaalu’ — a kind of ecstatic hysteria.”
But the real surprise was Nagarjuna’s praise for the editor behind the teaser cut.
“I asked who cut the teaser and was told it was done by a boy from Annapurna College of Film & Media. His name is Sushrith. I was so proud that I immediately went and told Amala about him. I’ve met him before. That moment gave me a sense of accomplishment, that maybe I did something right by founding a film school,” he said emotionally.
Nagarjuna also commended Sekhar Kammula for trusting a young talent with such an important task:
“Even for a director like Sekhar Kammula, it’s not easy to convey the story through just a song in a teaser. But this was done beautifully.”
With Kuberaa set for release soon, the buzz around the film is only growing louder. From the musical magic of DSP to rising talents behind the scenes, the film is shaping up to be a standout in 2025.
