Ravi Teja Unveils 'DNK' Trailer, Praises Mouli's Performance

Actor Ravi Teja unveiled the trailer of Telugu crime comedy 'DNK' (Donga Naa Koduku) on November 9, praising its entertaining presentation, energetic background score and comic elements. Starring Mouli Tanuj Prasanth, who earned recognition with the successful film 'Little Hearts', the movie is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on November 13, 2026.

Directed by debutant Sreenu Kambala, the film revolves around a young man whose addiction to online betting pushes him into serious financial troubles. Mouli plays a youngster who loses money through cricket betting and borrows funds using online loan applications. He also takes money from his girlfriend, played by Sushmitha Shetty, leaving him struggling to repay his debts.

The situation takes a dramatic turn when his girlfriend's father confronts him over the borrowed money and demands repayment. Desperate to arrange funds, the youngster decides to rob wealthy people's houses with the help of his friend Babloo. Their attempts to commit robberies lead to a series of unexpected situations, disguises and hilarious incidents.

The trailer also introduces a police investigation into the robberies. A police officer initially suspects a gang from Bihar, adding suspense to the crime-comedy narrative. The film blends dark humour, witty dialogues, family entertainment and police chase sequences while highlighting the dangers of online betting addiction and easy-money schemes.

The supporting cast includes Ali, Rajitha, Raghu Babu, Priya, Gundu Sudharshan and Nanda Gopal. Ali and Rajitha portray Mouli's parents, while Sushmitha Shetty plays his girlfriend.

The film is produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar under the Mythri Movie Makers banner, with Anil Yerneni as co-producer. Suriya Balaji handles cinematography, while Sinjith Yerramilli has composed the music. Sreedhar Sompally is the editor, and Nagendra Guvvala is the production designer.

The makers are promoting the project under the abbreviated title 'DNK' instead of its full name following a reported objection from the censor board. With its unusual crime-comedy storyline and Mouli's growing popularity, the film is generating interest ahead of its theatrical release.
