The Teaser of 'Keshava' surprises us with its rebellious touch. This was quite unexpected. The revolutionary poet Sri Sri is quoted as saying that we are rebellious because of what we read.

It's not know what the hero (Nikhil Siddhartha in a stubble-faced look) has read so as to become hardened enough to "serve revenge cold". The fast-paced editing, the fatal feel (a man's body hanging on a tree in the midst of a forest), the hero's gloomy gazes and the hint of an unfriendly system (read those men in khaki who seem to be giving a tough time to the protagonist) make the Teaser a must-watch.

Nikhil is literally blood-curdling. He wielding an axe makes us wonder if he is just Keshava or a bit of a violent Chenna 'Keshava' Reddy...

The title logo is fabulous, with it literally oozing blood.

Last but not the least, Sri Sri's 'Bhuthanni.. yagnopavithanni.. vaiplyava geethanni nenu.. Aristhe padyam.. smaristhe vadyam... Anala vedika mundu asthra naivedyam nenoka durgam' are a treat to lovers of literature.

Teaser edited by Vijay Vardhan.

The revenge drama, also starring Ritu Varma and Isha Koppikar and directed by Sudheer Varma of 'Swamy Ra Ra' fame, will hit the screens on May 12. Can you wait?
