Director Lokesh Kanagaraj is making his debut as a lead hero, but his screen presence in the glimpse of the film released today disappointed everyone. 

Directed by Arun Matheswaran, Lokesh’s first film as a hero is titled DC, and it stars Wamiqa Gabbi as the female lead. imilar to of Bonny and Clyde seems to be hinted at in the one minute teaser. It features multiple shots of Lokesh and Wamiqa strolling together down a walkway and then into a room. When the camera pans to Lokesh it shows him walking with his sleeves rolled up, smoking a cigarette and covered in blood.
