Bagheera Trailer OUT: Sriimurali transforms into a ruthless crime-fighting killer, fans compare him to Batman

Bagheera starring Sriimurali is one of the most awaited films of this year as the story is penned by Salaar director Prashanth Neel. Recently, Hombale Films unveiled the trailer of the film in which the actor is seen as a masked vigilante. While fans were impressed with Sriimurali’s screen presence, others compared him to Batman.

The trailer of Bagheera begins with a dialogue between a mother and her son. She mentions how divinity manifests itself in different ways as people fall into darkness. However, she warns that in such moments not only God can appear, but also a demon. We then see Bagheera, a masked vigilante, fighting the villains. Despite his intentions, his colleagues view him as a criminal because he acts outside the law.

Soon, fans took to their social media accounts to post their reactions after watching the Bagheera trailer.

One social media user posted: “Our own #DarkKnight is here. #Bagheera begins. The trailer is excellent. The graphics are brilliant. SriMurali seems apt for the role of vigilante. Garuda as a villain didn’t have that “Goliath” feel.”

Another user wrote, “If Gotham City has Batman, our city of Bengaluru has #Bagheera. The trailer looks good.”

“In the trailer he looks like the Batman of India – there are some differences but the vibe is definitely there. And with Prashanth Neel Sir at the helm, there is a lot to be excited about,” read another post.

One netizen made a hilarious comment and wrote, “We got another Batman movie before GTA 6.”

Check out the reactions below:

Bagheera will hit the big screens during the Diwali festival on October 31. The film will also clash with Sivakarthikeyan’s Amaran, Suriya’s Kanguva, Dulquer Salmaan’s Lucky Baskhar, Kavin’s Bloody Beggar and others.

In the northern belt, the film will compete with Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.

The star cast of Bagheera now includes Sriimurali, Rukimini Vasanth, Sudharani, Prakash Raj and Garuda Ram.
