The teaser of the the much-awaited Kannada actioner KD – The Devil was unveiled on Thursday. Directed by Prem and produced by Venkat K Narayan of KVN Productions, the movie stars Dhruva Sarja and Sanjay Dutt in lead roles as two forces 'bonded by blood'.
Packed with high-energy action and intense dialogues, the teaser introduces the key players, starting with Sanjay Dutt's Dhak Deva and Dhruva Sarja's Kaali Dasa, also known as KD. Several other important characters are also revealed. In the teaser, Dhruva appears to play a character with grey shades, while Sanjay seems to take on a dark, powerful role.
The ensemble cast also features Shilpa Shetty, Ravichandran, Ramesh Aravind, and Reeshma Nanaiah. Nora Fatehi will make her Kannada debut with a item song in the movie. KD – The Devil appears to be a gritty, blood-soaked action drama in the vein of Ranbir Kapoor's Animal and Lakshya's Kill. However, what sets it apart is that it's based on a true story. The film's release date has yet to be announced.

The teaser launch of KD in Mumbai was attended by Priyadarshan, Dhruva Sarja, Sanjay Dutt, Shilpa Shetty, and Reeshma Nanaiah.
Talking about his co-stars Dhruva and Shilpa, Sanjay shared, 'I had a lot of fun. And I pray to God that Dhruva becomes a very, very big star. I have done a lot of work with Shilpa. You don't get a better actor than her. She takes care of the house, looks after the kids, and still works. And I've never seen her change. Shilpa is still the same.' He also praised KD director Prem. 'He is such a lovely man. And he's such a humble man, even though he's such a big director and has made so many big films, he is still such a down-to-earth man. He's got fantastic talent and made iconic films in his language. And I follow his vision.'

The Internet slammed the actress for supporting such toxic masculinity. What's Happening Rashmika Mandanna was recently in conversation with Barkha Dutt, where a fan asked her if she would date a man like Animal's Ranvijay (Ranbir Kapoor) in real life. Rashmika Mandanna's answer left the audience surprised, and the Internet also trolled her severely. Rashmika Mandanna said, "I truly believe that if you love someone and someone loves you, the changes will happen." To which Barkha Dutt asked her, "Do you actually think that you can change people? You know that's a young and romantic idea?" Explaining her answer, Rashmika added, "I said that because, for example, when you grow up with a partner or someone from a younger age, you are still forming a personality. You are still figuring out what you like and what you do not like. And when you grow up together..." Furthermore, she said, "When you remember your best friend or your partner being a certain way maybe a decade earlier, suddenly, to the person who they are today, you're just like, 'Do you remember how it was? And do you realise how much we have changed together?" However, she also mentioned, "Maybe I am just talking about those miracle partners or situations."

Someone else added, " Jo reel life mein fix nahi kar paayi woh real life mein kya fix karegi?", while someone else mentioned, "What world is she living in? Only to defend her mere character, you can't sit there and make such statements. Women are not RESPONSIBLE for fixing anyone." Another comment read, "She is a major pick me."
