Dude (2025)
Dude is a Tamil romantic comedy that marks the directorial debut of Keerthiswaran. Cousins Agan (Pradeep Ranganathan) and Kural (Mamitha Baiju) run an event-planning business together. When Kural confesses her love, Agan turns her down and she leaves for Bangalore. Some time later Agan realises that he loves her and approaches her father, Minister Athiyamaan Azhagappan (R. Sarathkumar), to ask for her hand. The minister arranges the wedding, but without Kural's consent. Hridhu Haroon plays Paari, Kural's partner, and Rohini plays Agan's mother Parvathy, with Neha Shetty, Satya and Vinodhini Vaidyanathan also in the cast. Mythri Movie Makers produces the film, which was shot in Chennai. Pradeep Ranganathan initially turned the role down over concerns about the script. Dude released in theatres in October 2025 and streams on Netflix since 14 November 2025.
