Starring Deepak Saroj and Tanvi Negi, V Yeshasvi has released the trailer for his upcoming directorial. Titled ‘Siddharth Roy’, the trailer has been making waves ever since it was released. It has been trending on social media and is dominating all discourse on the internet.

The 2:22 minute-long trailer of ‘Siddharth Roy’ opens with a man screaming at the top of his lungs. The trailer moves to a shot where a man comes out from a luxurious car with a cigarette in his mouth. He flicks off his cigarette and tells the audience that he lost his virginity when he was 17. As the trailer progresses, we see a woman who follows him and notices his every move. It shows that Siddharth is the smartest man, but his emotions and rage take the front seat.

Take a look at the trailer of ‘Siddharth Roy’ here.

In the first half of the trailer, there is a dialogue that made me laugh. The hero says, “I am not for love, I am for lovemaking.” I mean, what did the dialogue writer even think when he penned this line? This sounds like the 2009-2010 SMS forwards that people used to send when they had those SMS packs. I thought this would be all, but it progressively gets worse. There’s a shot where he tears a woman’s clothes right in the middle of the street. In another shot, he pushes the woman onto a table in a bar and starts undoing his pants. He also forcefully kisses a woman. And obviously, all of this pathetic behavior is glorified because he is the smartest man.

The trailer glorifies the misogyny and touts him as the hero. Just when we thought that maybe we would get to see better stories, it simply becomes worse. One step forward, two steps back. That’s exactly what sums up the trailer of ‘Siddharth Roy.’ It reminds you of Sandeep Reddy Vanga's works. 

Directed by V Yeshasvi, ‘Siddharth Roy’ stars Deepak Saroj, Tanvi Negi, Anand, Kalyani Natarajan, Matthew Varghese, Nandini, and Keerthana in pivotal roles. The film has been produced by Jaya Adapaka. It is set to release in February.
