After winning over audiences with Dragon, Pradeep Ranganathan returns to the big screen with his next acting project, Dude. Directed by Keerthivasan and aiming for a Deepavali release, the film is currently in its post-production phase, with music scored by Sai Abhyankar. Riding on Pradeep’s growing fanbase and the film’s vibrant, youthful appeal, Dude has already begun generating considerable buzz ahead of its release.
Even before Dude reaches theatres, Pradeep Ranganathan is already gearing up for his next major venture. As reported by Indiaglitz, the multi-talented actor is set to step back into the director’s chair while also taking on the lead role in his upcoming film. The script, which he has already completed, marks a shift in genre—diving into science fiction, a notable departure from his previous romantic and youth-centric stories. The yet-to-be-titled project will be backed by the same production house that produced his successful film Love Today.

Pradeep Ranganathan’s upcoming science fiction project marks a fascinating shift in his career, as he ventures into a genre that remains largely untapped in mainstream Tamil cinema. Known for his engaging storytelling and relatable characters, his move into sci-fi has already piqued the interest of fans eager to see how he blends technology with emotion-driven narratives. The project is set to begin soon, with the team gearing up to kick off pre-production activities in the coming weeks.
Pradeep made his acting debut with Love Today, a film he also directed, which turned out to be a massive success. Following its blockbuster run, he shifted his focus to acting, and his second film as a lead, Dragon, also enjoyed tremendous box office success. With two consecutive 100-crore hits to his name, Pradeep has firmly established himself in the industry and now looks to strengthen his position further with his upcoming films Love Insurance Kompany and Dude.
