Cinema VinesThe Tamil version of the upcoming Spider‑Man film, Brand New Day, was promoted with a 2‑minute‑40‑second music video that featured singer‑composer GV Prakash Kumar, rapper Vengayo, and choreographer Sandy. The clip, released by Sony on Monday, shows children waiting for the web‑slinging hero and then celebrating when he arrives, while the trio performs dance moves against a backdrop of Spider‑Man‑themed graphics.
Despite Prakash’s reputation, the song failed to resonate with fans. Social media reactions were largely negative, with Reddit users and X (formerly Twitter) comments calling the track “unimpressive” and “out of place.” One user remarked that the anthem “doesn’t even have any vibe of Spider‑Man other than background wall painting and a guy in Spidey costume.” Fans of well‑known composers such as A. R. Rahman and Anirudh Ravichander expressed disappointment that they were not given the opportunity to work on the track, with one fan urging future promotions to consider Anirudh.
The promotional video also highlighted Vengayo’s rapping and dancing skills, while Sandy—known for his work on the Malayalam film Lokah: Chapter 1 – Chandra—directed the video and showcased his own choreography. Prakash, who composed the music and lent his voice to the anthem, attempted to dance alongside the duo, adding to the energetic but polarizing presentation.
Spider‑Man: Brand New Day, which follows the events of Homecoming, Far From Home, and No Way Home, will be released in India on July 30 in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. The film stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker, with Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Tramell Tillman, Michael Mando, and Mark Ruffalo in supporting roles.
Film critic Neeshita Nyayapati, who holds a Master’s in Journalism and has worked for The Times of India and Reader’s Digest, noted that while she is a dedicated movie enthusiast, her professional background as a chief content producer informs her coverage of such releases.
