In the ever changing Telugu cinema where love stories meet unexpected twists, Ugly Story movie teaser has dropped like a thunderbolt and it’s as emotional as it is visually stunning. Starring Nandu and Avika Gor, this A. Vasanth directorial is already creating buzz for its bold take on love’s darker side. Produced by S Originals, Ugly Story is another attempt at unconventional storytelling where raw emotion meets psychological depth to make it a not so normal film.
The teaser is 1.58 minutes long and starts off calm and ominous setting the tone for a relationship that starts in heaven and goes haywire. Nandu, who is known for his subtle performances in films like Jai plays a young man whose quiet intensity hides layers of vulnerability and determination. His character is a seemingly devoted lover who navigates the highs of romance with Avika Gor’s character a free spirited woman whose energy is infectious and draws him in. Avika who is making waves in Telugu cinema after her Bollywood stint brings in a new charm to the screen – her expressive eyes and subtle expressions convey a range of emotions from playful affection to haunting despair. Together they shine in scenes that capture the intoxicating feeling of new love and then the mood shifts dramatically as cracks appear.
What really sells the trailer is the twists. Betrayal, secrets, moral ambiguity. I won’t spoil the main mystery but glimpses of intense confrontations and shadowy revelations suggest a story where ugly truths can break even the strongest bonds. The cinematography is great – moody lighting and close ups. The score is a soft hum of music and sudden crescendos that pulls you in.
Director A. Vasanth, who has a knack for weaving psychological elements into everyday stories seems to have made Ugly Story a mirror to modern relationships—where social media facades and unspoken insecurities lead to unexpected outcomes. S Originals the production house that backs unique scripts has invested in high production values and it shows in the teaser’s sleek visuals and locations that range from sun kissed beaches to rain drenched streets. Early reactions from industry folks say the chemistry between the two is great, Nandu’s controlled angst complements Avika’s fiery vulnerability in a way that feels so real.
As the teaser ends with a cliffhanger that will leave your heart racing and your mind reeling it’s clear Ugly Story isn’t just another love story – it’s a brutal dissection of what happens when love turns toxic.
