Vishwaksen Did Well, But Concept Is Debatable
Undoubtedly, the teaser of “CULT” has a vibe to it, as the young hero banked more on violence to deliver the needful, carving out a violent action movie that takes place inside a pub.
By: Shanaz B Syed | 23 Feb 2026 6:47 PM ISTExactly a week after his disastrous film “Funky” was released, talented hero Vishwaksen has come out with the teaser of his upcoming film, probably to wipe out the pain caused by the previous film. Undoubtedly, the teaser of “CULT” has a vibe to it, as the young hero banked more on violence to deliver the needful, carving out a violent action movie that takes place inside a pub.
Though Vishwaksen claimed a lot about #CULT movie, nothing is exciting the Gen Z audience for a reason. While there might be something else inside the movie, the released teaser looks like a mere spoof of the superhit Netflix web series “The Squid Game” only. Though the hero also claimed that “Project X’ movie inspired him, that’s only a part.
In the Project X movie, the plot involves a lot of uninvited people attending a party, while the teaser of CULT showcases how an animated character announces a game, and people get killed, like how it is in The Squid Games series. If the concept of CULT is close to any of the most-watched web series, then surely it won’t get much appreciation from the younger audience. If the concept gets debatable, the success of the film is doubtful.
