It was anything but a lullaby when the thumping beats of 'Pippi Pippi Dum Dum Dum' from 'Kuberaa' dropped in Mumbai amidst massive star-studded fanfare. The atmosphere turned electric as Kuberaa stars Nagarjuna, Dhanush and Rashmika Mandanna lit up the stage, bringing alive the magic of this much-awaited cinematic spectacle.
The event kicked off with an unexpected twist: not one but two back-to-back screenings of the Kuberaa teaser, as the audience erupted into cheers demanding an encore. The teaser, raw and riveting, was met with deafening applause and whistles, setting the tone for the big reveal.
Then came the showstopper — the Pippi Pippi Dum Dum Dum. A break up song, high-energy number that turns the nursery rhyme on its head, the track captures the chaotic soul of 'Kuberaa'.

Jun 5, 2026Post the screening, the Kuberaa cast took center stage for a spirited media interaction. Nagarjuna, making a rare promotional appearance, spoke straight from the heart.
He said, “I'm so, so deeply appreciative and grateful to all of you. And this film—let me just talk about the film then. This film is very, very special to me. It came to me at a point in time when I was wondering what next to do. Like you asked, what should I do next? I can't keep doing the same roles over and over again. Sekhar Kamala, whom I wanted to work with for the last 15 years, came to me and asked if I would like to do this role. I didn't even ask what he was going to offer me—I just said yes. Because I know, I've seen Sekhar Kamala's earlier films. He's a brilliant filmmaker, so real, with sensibilities that are so true.”
Dhanush said, “Kuberaa is a very very different and very very special film and very very close to my heart. We had fantastic experiences shooting for this film and weird experience(s) shooting for this film - shooting dumpyards, garbage trucks and stuff. But every experience teaches you something or the other. We're very happy to have worked such a brilliant team - such a positive team. You generally don't get to see me often, I don't get to come out (here) often. This movie deserves to be promoted this way.”

Jun 5, 2026Rashmika said, “I’m sure you’re aware of what a guerilla shoot is. We spent the whole day running around with the camera, just capturing moments, and all we kept thinking was - get into the car.
We didn’t even see the monitor, didn’t even know what the shot looked like. But the master behind it all was Shekhar sir. Working with him has been incredible, and I believe all of us put our hearts into this film. I really hope you all will like it."
