Sobhita Dhulipala is all set to make her Hollywood debut. The actress will feature in one of the highly-anticipated films ‘Monkey Man‘. On Saturday, the makers of the action thriller Monkey Man released the trailer of the film. The over three-minute-long trailer opens with a man who is after a bunch of corrupt leaders who murdered his mother (Adithi Kalkunte) and continue to victimise the poor and powerless people. The lead in the film is portrayed by Dev Patel. The movie is inspired by the legend of Hanuman.
In the trailer, Dev’s character is portrayed as someone earning a living in an underground fight club, enduring beatings from renowned fighters for money. Wearing a gorilla mask during these bouts, the trailer provides insights into Dev’s childhood, depicting moments spent with his mother and the subsequent loss. As he matures, he seeks vengeance against those who deprived him of everything.

As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.”
