'Citadel: Honey Bunny': Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu starrer action-packed series’ trailer to release on October 15

The excitement surrounding the upcoming action series 'Citadel: Honey Bunny' is palpable, as the trailer will be released on October 15. This highly anticipated series stars Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who are depicted in a striking new poster, dressed in black and armed, ready for high-octane action. The series is set to begin streaming on November 7, and fans are eagerly counting down the days to see how this thrilling narrative unfolds.
Directed by the acclaimed duo Raj & DK, 'Citadel: Honey Bunny' is part of the expansive global Citadel universe, which has already garnered attention with its previous season featuring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas. The teaser released earlier has already set the tone for an engaging espionage thriller, showcasing intense action sequences that highlight both lead actors' skills. In one notable scene, Samantha is seen wielding two pistols as she prepares to confront her adversaries, while Varun joins her in a dynamic fight sequence.
During the teaser launch event earlier this year, Samantha expressed her astonishment at taking on such an action-oriented role. She remarked, “I never would have imagined that I would do action. But today, for me, being at this event is already such a victory because, until the last moment, I didn’t think I could do it. I didn’t think I would be a part of 'Citadel.' I’m extremely grateful to Raj, DK, Sita and Amazon for really coming to my rescue. I just had to prepare physically. I am just so incredibly proud already that this is the way it is; this is the way it looks. I can’t believe – this is how it looks.”
Varun Dhawan also shared insights about Samantha's dedication during filming, particularly after her diagnosis with myositis, an autoimmune disorder. He stated, “Honestly, my preparation was very easy compared to Samantha’s. It’s public knowledge what she was battling when she joined the show. I thought my rehearsals were tough, but then I saw her incredible work ethic despite her struggles, and it truly inspired me.”
The series promises a unique blend of thrilling action and emotional depth as it explores themes of love and camaraderie against the backdrop of a vibrant 90s setting. The narrative aims to intertwine gripping spy elements with heartfelt moments, making it not just another action series but a story with emotional resonance.
