Naga Chaitanya’s much-anticipated Pan India project, “Thandel,” is steadily taking shape, with the shoot progressing at a brisk pace. Directed by Chandu Mondeti, the film promises an engaging narrative revolving around the life of a fisherman portrayed by Naga Chaitanya, combined with a heartwarming village backdrop love story featuring the successful lead pair, Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi.
Excitement around the film peaked when recent reports revealed the construction of a massive set resembling a Pakistan Jail in Hyderabad. Naga Chaitanya is set to join the sets this week for crucial scenes that will be shot within this elaborate set. The first glimpse of the movie, showcasing Chaitanya in jail sequences infused with a strong sense of patriotism, has already generated considerable buzz. Sources suggest that the scenes filmed in the Pakistan Jail Set will play a pivotal role in shaping the narrative and adding depth to the storyline.
Naga Chaitanya’s dedication to his role is evident in his massive transformation for “Thandel,” showcasing wild rustic looks that have garnered widespread appreciation from netizens. Adding to the anticipation, Rockstar Devi Sri Prasad’s musical touch is expected to elevate the film further, considering the successful collaborations between Chaitanya and DSP in the past that resulted in chart-topping hits. The makers are eyeing for a Dussehra Festival 2024 release.
