Overview
- DC, which opened on Friday, August 7, 2026, drew widespread first‑day applause on social media and in early reviews for Lokesh Kanagaraj’s performance and Anirudh Ravichander’s background score.
- Critics praised the film’s stylised action, visuals and musical themes while several reviews noted pacing problems and a weaker second half that may temper repeat viewings.
- Box‑office trackers reported a Day‑1 worldwide gross of Rs 5.70 crore, with about Rs 4.70 crore from India and roughly Rs 1 crore from overseas, leaving weekend growth crucial to recouping the reported ~Rs 25 crore production scale.
- Produced by Sun Pictures and directed by Arun Matheswaran, the Tamil film was released dubbed in Telugu and Hindi and features Wamiqa Gabbi and Sanjana Krishnamoorthy in key roles.
