Dulquer Salmaan in Lucky Baskhar
Actor Dulquer Salmaan had a box office dud in 2023 with the release of his Malayalam film 'King of Kotha'. While there was much expectation from the film, the action flick did not deliver at the box office. Post that, Dulquer Salmaan returned to the screens a year later with the Telugu drama 'Lucky Baskhar'. The film was released in theatres on October 30 and was well received by critics and audiences. Now, with its OTT release, the film has reached a wider audience.

Dulquer Salmaan's hattrick in Telugu industry
This is Dulquer's third project in Telugu and all three have become a success. He first set foot in the Telugu industry with the National-award winning film Mahanati directed by Nag Ashwin. In the film, he essayed the role of Gemini Ganesan who was married to actress Savitri on whose life the film was based. He was then seen in the heart-wrenching romantic movie 'Sita Ramam' with Mrunal Thakur. Breaking language barriers, the film resonated with a wide range of audience with its emotional core. And now, Lucky Baskhar sees him play a clever man belonging from a lower middle class family who soon becomes a risk taker to bring his family out of financial debt.
Audience reaction to Luck Baskhar
The film was released on Netflix today and has received immense positive reaction. In half a day, the film started trending on Google and social media with movie enthusiasts praising the actor's performance, Venky Alturi's direction and the clever writing.
Praising the film, a netizen reviewed, "#LuckyBaskhar impressed me in almost every department.

Easily one of the best films this year."
