‘I’ll be back’ – that’s the clear indication that Darshan Thoogudeepa has given his celebrities with the trailer of his next, The Devil. “The sun won’t stay eclipsed forever… and neither will I,” he says, which Darshan fans have interpreted as the Kannada superstar’s strong message to all his detractors. The trailer that director-producer Prakash Veer released earlier on December 5 is pure fan service and they are loving every aspect, from the actor’s style and swag to the rich visuals, background score and more, even though the filmmaker still managed to keep the plot under wraps.
Comments ranged from, “A complete feast for fans”, to “#DBoss is a drug addict in #TheDevil. A never before seen avatar of Darshan on screen from 11th Dec”, “The most stylish #DBoss has ever Looked Since very long time!! Trailer is Very interesting!! Looks like a Something new character in DBoss Career!!”, “Expecting a racy thriller”, “This is a sure-shot blockbuster”, among others.
Netizens are convinced that Darshan has a negative shade in the film, albeit for a particular purpose, with the shots of the red and green pills of great significance to this plot point. The general consensus is that as far as production quality goes, The Devil has aced that department, with every frame looking fantastic. All that is left is for the film to have a decently presentable story and it should have no problem at the box office.
The Devil is releasing in theatres on December 11, 2025, a day ahead of the earlier plan. Advance bookings for the 6.30 am fan shows will open on December 6, with the rest to follow in due course of time. Darshan is paired with Rachana Rai, while Sharmiela Mandre will be seen in a pivotal role. The rest of the cast also includes Mahesh Manjrekar, Achyuth Kumar, Huli Karthik, Vinay Gowda, Chandu B Gowda, Gilli Nata, Roger Narayan, Shobraj, among others.
