Director's insight
Keerthiswaran initially wrote 'Dude' for Rajinikanth
Keerthiswaran had previously revealed that he wrote Dude with superstar Rajinikanth in mind. He said, "When I began writing the story, I imagined how Rajinikanth sir would have played this role if he were 30 years old." "The story is not just about love, there's also a mass element, which audiences will understand when they watch the film." "Having my debut film release for Diwali truly feels like a dream come true."
