Trailer: Officer on Duty – Mythri Bets Big on Malayalam Cinema

Mythri Movie Makers Expands Its Dubbing Game

After tasting success with Dragon (the Telugu version of The Return of the Dragon), Mythri Movie Makers is aggressively venturing into the Telugu dubbing market. Their next bet? A Malayalam police procedural thriller, Officer on Duty, starring Kunchacko Boban.

Following the decent traction of ARM (the dubbed version of Anveshippin Kandethum), Mythri is now eyeing a wider audience with this action-packed film, set to release in Telugu on March 7.

Officer on Duty: An Engaging Police Thriller

The film follows Hari Shankar, a demoted police inspector who takes on a counterfeit jewelry racket. As he digs deeper, he finds himself caught in a deadly web of crime that threatens his life.

The theatrical trailer, released today, showcases high-intensity action sequences, suspenseful investigation scenes, and gripping drama, hinting at a thrilling experience for the audience.

Will Officer on Duty Click in Telugu?

Though Officer on Duty was released in Malayalam on February 20, it received mixed reviews and wasn’t a major hit in its home industry. Additionally, Kunchacko Boban, while popular in Kerala, doesn’t have a solid Telugu fanbase. His previous dubbed films, including 2018, Virus, and Midnight Murders, were well received but didn’t achieve box-office success in Telugu states.

Malayalam Cinema’s Rising Popularity in Telugu

Despite these challenges, Malayalam movies have been gaining strong reception in the Telugu market. With films like Premalu, Manjummel Boys, and 2018 winning hearts, there is growing interest in well-made content-driven cinema. If Officer on Duty delivers a gripping narrative, it might just find its audience among Telugu viewers.

Final Verdict: A Hit or a Miss?

With Mythri Movie Makers backing the film and an intriguing crime thriller plot, Officer on Duty has potential. Whether it breaks into the Telugu market successfully remains to be seen.

👉 Will Mythri’s latest gamble pay off? We’ll find out on March 7!
