‘Tu Yaa Main’ Trailer Out: Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav Trapped in a Bloody Survival Game—Netizens Say, “Give the Oscar to the Crocodile”

The trailer of director Bejoy Nambiar’s upcoming survival thriller Tu Yaa Main was released on Thursday, January 22, 2026, and it has already set social media buzzing. Starring Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav in the lead, the film promises a tense, blood-soaked battle for survival—with an unexpected scene-stealer: a terrifying crocodile.

The trailer opens with a striking callback to Khoon Bhari Maang, immediately setting a dark and ominous tone. Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav play social media influencers who come together for an adventurous collaboration designed to go viral. Shanaya essays the role of “Miss Vanity,” while Adarsh plays a creator from Nalasopara, known simply as “A.” The film contrasts their vastly different backgrounds and digital personas, bringing two distinct worlds together in the pursuit of fame and thrill.

What begins as a quest for adrenaline-fuelled content soon spirals into a nightmare. Their obsession with risky stunts lands them trapped in a deserted, blood-stained swimming pool—cut off from the outside world and fighting for their lives. The trailer rapidly escalates into a gripping survival drama as the duo find themselves hunted by a ferocious, bloodthirsty crocodile.

Visually intense sequences show the two desperately trying to escape—breaking glass, crawling through flooded tunnels, and struggling against panic and exhaustion. One of the most chilling moments features Shanaya Kapoor’s character screaming in agony as the crocodile drags her away, while the tension peaks in the final frames with the predator pulling a lifeless body into the dark depths of the jungle.

Audiences have responded enthusiastically to the trailer. While Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav have earned praise for their performances and screen presence, the crocodile has unexpectedly stolen the spotlight. The comment section is flooded with reactions, with one viral remark reading, “The trailer is brilliant—give the Oscar to the crocodile.” The line has since been echoed by countless viewers, turning it into a trending joke online.

With its high-stakes premise, striking visuals, and relentless suspense, Tu Yaa Main appears poised to be a gripping survival thriller that explores the dark side of influencer culture—where the hunger for views can turn deadly. As the trailer suggests, the central question remains hauntingly clear: when faced with death, who will survive—you or me?
