Cast






Production


Double Tuckerr is the directorial debut of Meera Mahadhi. The film includes both live action and animation. The film project was initially planned to be based on a storyline featuring Yama and Chitragupta with the idea of casting Yogi Babu and Munishkanth. However the idea was shelved as Yogi Babu had already done a film similar to the storyline involving the characters of Yama and Chitragupta in Dharmaprabhu. The filmmakers then came up with a paradigm shift approach by bringing in the concept of angels and children were kept as the prime target audience for the film project.
Dheeraj, who has been serving as a cardiovascular surgeon in Chennai for a long time, had shown his ambitious efforts in pursuing a film career and opted to choose the film after listening to the script with eagerness. Dheeraj had previously involved in short films such as Dheergayushmman Bhava. He made his acting debut in Bodhai Yeri Buddhi Maari whereas Dheeraj received fame and recognition for his role in the film which also opened floodgates for himself.




Reception


Roopa Radhakrishnan of The Times of India wrote, "There are moments when Double Tuckerr truly comes into its own; it's solely in those moments that the film lives up to and justifies its absurd spirit. But, otherwise, this Meera Mahadhi directorial isn't half as quirky or distinctive as it considers itself to be". Narayani M of Cinema Express rated two star out of five star and noted that "Double Tuckerr has some clever ideas and a very interesting premise." Ananda Vikatan wrote that mainly, the visual effects and animation work for the multi-incarnated fairy puppets and the dialogues they speak make the film stand out.
