Visual glimpse of Vinay Rajkumar's much-awaited 'Pepe' out on THIS date

Young actor Vinay Rajkumar has been striving hard to be a cut above the rest with his choice of roles. As someone who represents the third generation of the esteemed Dr Rajkumar clan along with younger brother Yuva Rajkumar and cousins Niveditha Shiva Rajkumar, Dheeren Ramkumar & Dhanya Ramkumar, Vinay's picks so far an actor can be best described as 'offbeat'. One such unconventional project in his upcoming lineup of films is Pepe, a promising crime action thriller directed by Shreelesh S Nair.

Pepe has been in the making for quite some time and according to recent reports, the team managed to wrap up production back in November of 2022. The post-production is currently in full swing, one assumes, but the makers are yet to comment on the possible release date of the film. However, director Shreelesh Nair took to social media recently to announce that a visual glimpse of Pepe will be out on May 7, to mark Vinay Rajkumar's birthday.

While fans expressed excitement over the latest announcement, a majority of them questioned the lack of publicity as far as the release is concerned. The trailer of the film, too, came up in the discussion with Shreelesh Nair promising that it will shortly be released. One does hope, however, that the upcoming visual glimpse of Pepe will carry a few relevant details regarding the theatrical release.

The teaser of Pepe was released in February 2022 and though it does not shed much light on the story of the film, it does reveal that Vinay Rajkumar will be seen in a rather alluring rugged avatar; there is a lot of bloodshed and violence in the film, no doubt, but along a more relatable & realistic tone. In his previous interviews, Vinay revealed that he plays an intense character called Pradeepa who is known as 'Pepe' among his peers.
