Yesterday, the makers delighted fans and movie lovers with the striking pre-look. In the pre-look, Naga Chaitanya will be seen donning the cop avatar with a fierce look on his face. He is seen locked down in the hands of his fellow officers, who have been seen using force and guns to restrain his rage. This intense look has heightened anticipation for the first look, which will be released on November 23rd at 10:18 AM as a birthday surprise for Chaitanya. The release date of Custody is yet to announce.
This year, Naga made his Bollywood debut in Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha. The film was released with mixed-to-negative reception and it tanked at the box office. On the other side, Nagarjuna marked his return to Hindi cinemas with Brahmastra Part One Shiva. Unlike Naga, Nagarjuna's stint in Hindi films proved successful. Brahmastra become one of the top grosser of the year
