A still from Kingdom
As Vijay Deverakonda gears up for the release of his highly anticipated film Kingdom, the makers have teased fans with a promo of the film’s first single, Hridayam Lopala. And it’s already creating quite a buzz, especially for one striking moment featuring a passionate kiss on the beach.
The promo opens with Vijay Deverakonda and debutante Bhagyashri Borse sitting together on a serene beach. In a moment filled with both emotion and chemistry, the two share a passionate kiss—an intimate scene that has caught the attention of fans across social media.
Sharing the video on Instagram, Vijay added a poetic and intriguing caption:
“In the shadows of betrayal, In the pretence of a bond, There is tense attraction.”
This line hints at a layered relationship between the two characters, blending love with hidden tensions. Vijay also expressed strong confidence in the song, writing:
“From the world of #Kingdom – An @anirudhofficial Song that will become a non-stop replayed favourite ❤️”
Hridayam Lopala is sung by Anirudh Ravichander and Anumita Nadesan, with lyrics penned by Krishna Kanth. With Anirudh’s signature style and romantic visuals to match, fans are already expecting this track to top playlists.
Before this song promo, the makers released a 115-second teaser that revealed a darker, more intense side of Kingdom. Set in a world torn by war and injustice, the story centers around a fearless leader—played by Vijay—who rises from the ruins to bring hope to the people. In one powerful line, he declares from police custody,
“I will do anything, sir. If needed, I will burn everything.”
Even before its release, Kingdom is making headlines for its innovation. It is the first film to unveil a fully AI-designed thematic video as part of its soundtrack promotion—setting a new benchmark for marketing in Indian cinema.
Originally scheduled for March 28, Kingdom will now hit theatres on May 30. With a blend of raw emotion, high-stakes drama, and cutting-edge visuals, the film is poised to be one of Vijay Deverakonda’s most ambitious projects yet.
