Neha Shetty Stuns After Long Break in Dude Trailer
Dressed as a bride in a red saree with kumkum on her forehead, Neha’s expression carries a quiet ache.
By: Shanaz B Syed | 9 Oct 2025 4:53 PM ISTComebacks in cinema can be unpredictable, like rain after a long summer, refreshing yet unexpected. Neha Shetty, once everyone’s favourite as Radhika in DJ Tillu, has finally returned to screens, catching attention with her brief but striking presence in the Tamil film Dude. Earlier this year, she made a cameo in Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s OG song “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” which didn't get her the fame she was expecting. But now, with Dude, she looks ready to make a strong comeback.
The film stars Pradeep Ranganathan and Mamitha Baiju and promises youthful energy with a hint of emotion and chaos. Directed by Keerthiswaran and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, Dude feels like a mix of romance, humour, and pain. Pradeep, who connects easily with young audiences, leads the story with his typical charm. The trailer, though fun, takes a turn when Neha appears, not for long, but long enough to make people pause.
Dressed as a bride in a red saree with kumkum on her forehead, Neha’s expression carries a quiet ache. There’s a shot where Pradeep seems ready to tie the knot, but her eyes tell a different story, one of loss, love, and maybe betrayal. The trailer gives nothing away, and that mystery has fans hooked. Even without a single dialogue, Neha manages to bring depth with her silence.
After facing a few setbacks last year, Dude could give Neha the restart she needs. Fans have already started talking about her online, saying she brings back the same spark that made her unforgettable in DJ Tillu. It’s a short appearance, but it’s powerful, the kind that reminds you why she stood out in the first place. This Diwali, Neha Shetty might just light up the screen again, quietly but confidently.
