Pradeep Ranganathan Ignites Buzz With Dude First Gear Teaser

Pradeep Ranganathan, the young filmmaker who turned actor, is back in the limelight. His new film Dude has him paired with Mamita Baiju in a youthful entertainer that looks tailor-made for today’s audience. Veteran actor Sarathkumar also steps in with a key role. Directed by Keerthiswaran and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, the film is being planned as a Diwali release in five languages, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi.

The teaser, titled First Gear, has caught attention with its breezy tone. Pradeep appears as a lively, everyday guy with a quirky edge, while Mamita brings freshness to the pairing. The clip doesn’t reveal much of the story but makes it clear that the film wants to connect through mood, energy and style rather than heavy emotion. That simple, youthful vibe is what has made the teaser click instantly.

To add to the build-up, the makers also announced the first single, Boom Boom, which will be released on the 28th of this month. The promo poster shows Pradeep and Mamita in cool, modern outfits, hinting at a high-energy track. Music is by Sai Abhyankar, and cinematography by Niketh Bommi promises a glossy, colorful look on screen. The supporting cast includes Hrudu Haroon, Dravid Selvam and others.

With Mythri’s strong backing, stylish visuals, and music aimed at the youth, Dude is being positioned as a festive entertainer with Pan-India appeal. The teaser alone has sparked enough curiosity, and now all eyes are on whether the songs and the film itself can deliver on the promise of fresh fun.
