The trailer of Nani’s ambitious pan-India action entertainer Dasara was released on Tuesday evening. The film marks Nani’s transformation into an action hero in a large-scale big-budget mass entertainer. The transformation has been earning praise from the fans since the teaser was released last month.
The trailer opens with a shot of an aarti on the banks of a river illuminated by hundreds of lamps. We see Keerthy Suresh’s character dressing up and admiring herself in the mirror. The trailer suddenly kicks into high gear as Nani explodes on to the screen, jumping on moving trains and smashing drinking glasses. His character is Dharam, a local ruffian known to beat up local goons on whim.
But the wayward ruffian finds purpose when his friends are threatened. He takes up arms and decides to fight for his village and people, no matter how much the odds are stacked against him. We then see a montage of high-flying action with jeeps flying, men being bludgeoned and Nani spilling a whole lot of blood.
