Watching Dude 2025, felt like was watching a Dhanush
While watching Pradeep Ranganathan’s Dude, I had the same feeling as I had after watching Dhanush’s first film “Thulluvadho Ilamai” in 2002. Same acting, action and romance is Dhanush’s style of Pradeep Ranganathan, and there is nothing wrong in it, today’s big stars of South, who are superhit, have also become successful by copying Rajinikanth’s style, be it Mahesh Babu or Prabhash.
The action seems a bit over-the-top as per the personality.
Pradeep Ranganathan’s personality might make cult action seem a bit over-acting. While actors with six-pack abs are currently doing everything they can to pull off the action, Pradeep Ranganathan, with a single rib, is making waves in action. However, his acting is commendable, which is why this film has a rating of 7.8 on IMDB.

Dude plot summary

Seeing the poster of the film, Raghav Juyal thought it was
The poster for Dude 2025 might suggest Bollywood’s Raghav Juyal in a negative role, but a closer look reveals it’s from 32-year-old South Indian actor and director Pradeep Ranganathan. His long hair and beard look bear a striking resemblance to Raghav Juyal, who is also a popular star in Bollywood these days.
Cinematography & Music:
Visually, Dude captures urban youth culture with colorful frames and dynamic camera work. The soundtrack is another highlight — full of catchy tunes and meaningful lyrics that amplify every scene.The film’s songs, dances, and dhoom-dhadak are all the best of a typical South Indian film. The film’s colorful poster is reminiscent of Bollywood’s Gunz and Gulaab. In other words, if you’re a Bollywood movie fan, Dude will make you feel that way.
