Lokesh Kanagaraj to produce Mr Bhaarath; check out the fun and quirky promo

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is known for LCU films, is backing films under the G Squad banner. On Wednesday, the director took to social media to announce a new film, titled Mr Bhaarath. A quirky and fun promo of the film was released, which looks refreshing, compared to the brand of dark and action-oriented gritty films that Lokesh is known for.

Lokesh Kanagaraj to produce Mr Bhaarath

Lokesh Kanagaraj and Jagadish Palanisamy are set to bankroll an upcoming Tamil film titled Mr Bhaarath. Written and directed by Niranjan, the makers released an introductory promo of the film.

The promo begins with a group of men holding a boy accountable for not repaying his debts, after promising to promote videos on YouTube. As they scroll through the boy's phone, they see a contact called Mr Bharath. After they seek a ransom, Bharath says that he wants his friend alive. Meanwhile, we see the gang's leader as Lokesh Kanagaraj, who meets the boy and his friend. While Lokesh asks them to make lengthier videos, the conversation soon takes a lighter note, as the boys give out a media byte saying they are doing a film for G Squad, which is Lokesh's banner.
