Valentine’s Day took a darker, adrenaline-fueled turn as Lokesh Kanagaraj dropped the explosive intro teaser of his upcoming Tamil film DC, captioning it, “Happy Valentine’s Day from the world of #DC.”
Tagging director Arun Matheswaran, composer Anirudh Ravichander, co-star Wamiqa Gabbi, and key crew members, Lokesh kept the message simple — letting the visuals do the talking. And what visuals they are.
Clocking in at 98 seconds, the teaser titled “A Bloody Valentine” wastes no time setting the tone. Bathed in moody red lighting, it opens with romantic tension simmering between Devadas and Chandra — the characters whose initials form the film’s title. But just as quickly, love bleeds into chaos. Car chases rip through dimly lit streets. Fists fly. Blades flash. Romance collides with rage.
For fans of Lokesh’s signature high-octane storytelling, the teaser feels both familiar and refreshingly bold. Known for crafting gritty cinematic worlds, he now steps into the spotlight himself, marking his acting debut as Devadas. Opposite him, Wamiqa Gabbi’s Chandra exudes quiet intensity, hinting at a love story that’s anything but gentle.
Directed by Arun Matheswaran — best known for his raw and stylized filmmaking — DC positions itself as a gritty action-romance with emotional stakes as sharp as its action sequences. The Valentine’s Day drop feels intentional. This isn’t roses and soft ballads; it’s passion drenched in danger.
Elevating the teaser further is Anirudh Ravichander’s pulsating music. The theme track, “Ain’t Nobody,” layers tension with attitude, amplifying every glance and gunshot. The sound design pulses like a heartbeat — steady at first, then racing toward something explosive.
Released on February 14, 2026, the teaser quickly sparked online frenzy, with fans praising its intensity and cinematic scale. Social media timelines lit up with reactions, theories, and frame-by-frame breakdowns. The buzz signals strong anticipation for the film’s summer release, as Lokesh expands his creative universe — this time not just behind the camera, but in front of it. If this Valentine’s Day proved anything, it’s that love stories in Tamil cinema are evolving. In the world of DC, love doesn’t whisper. It roars.
