The trailer for Vijay Deverakonda’s upcoming film Kingdom was released on Tuesday at a launch event in Tirupati. Directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, the film follows Deverakonda in the role of Surya, an undercover operative on a high-risk mission.
The trailer shows Surya navigating a hostile environment after being tasked with infiltrating enemy territory. It highlights action sequences with a focus on the character’s emotional and professional dilemmas. Anirudh Ravichander has composed the film’s background score.
In an interview with Filmfare, Deverakonda described Kingdom as an “action drama with layered storytelling,” adding that the film emphasises character-driven narrative over spectacle. “I wanted to work with Gowtam even before reading the script,” he said, referring to the film’s director. “He is a strong visual storyteller, and this felt like the right collaboration.”
Kingdom is produced by S Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under the banners of Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas. The film also stars Satyadev, Bhagyashri Borse, Manish Chaudhari, Venkitesh, and Baburaj in supporting roles.
This marks Deverakonda’s latest release following a series of projects that have explored different genres. According to the makers, Kingdom aims to revisit the format of traditional action dramas, where personal sacrifice is central to the story.
The film is scheduled for a theatrical release on July 31.
