What the story is about

Three young men in a rural village in Chittoor are broke and up to no good when they stumble on a scooter that seems to have a mind of its own. Spotting a chance to make money, they use the haunted scooter to lead a Ganesh Chaturthi procession. Their plans unravel when they learn that the spirit inside it is a young woman, and the film turns to the mystery of who she was and the love story behind how she ended up there.

Cast and characters

• Harsh Roshan, Karthikeya Dev and Madhu Sudhan Rapeti as the three friends
• Saanve Megghana as Shilpa
• Nihal Kodhaty as Naveen

Crew

• Writer-director: Supreeth C Krishna
• Producers: Rahul Reddy D, Lokku Sri Varun and C Sree Ramulu Reddy (Chitravaahani Productions and RYG Cinemas)
• Cinematography: Karthik Saikumar; editing: Ashwath Shivkumar

The director has said the idea came from a RuPay commercial featuring an animated vehicle, which made him ask why such a vehicle could not be the central character of a story.

Release and reception

Tuk Tuk was released on 21 March 2025. The Times of India rated it 3 out of 5, calling it “a fun, offbeat fantasy drama” that entertains despite a few bumps in the storytelling. BH Harsh of Cinema Express gave the same rating and wrote that “the film wears its heart on its sleeve, even when it doesn’t have the vigour or craft to express itself with full effect”. We have not found a box-office figure from a reliable named outlet, so none is given here.
