Thandel is an upcoming 2024 Telugu action film directed by Chandoo Mondeti[2] and produced by Bunny Vasu under the banner Geetha Arts.[3][4] Presented by Allu Aravind, [5] it features Naga Chaitanya [6]and Sai Pallavi in the lead roles.[7] The music and the background score was composed by Devi Sri Prasad.[8] This is his third collaboration with Chandoo, after Premam (2016) and Savyasachi (2018).
Thandel is an action drama based on real life events that happened to a fisherman in 2018 from Srikakulam, who gets caught after unintentionally drifting into Pakistani waters and tortured by the Pakistan authorities.[9] [10] The movie's glimpse unfolds a love story against the backdrop of the ocean.[11] [12]
Chandoo spent approx. 18 months working on the script.[15] Before filming begun, the team travelled to a village named Machilesham in Srikakulam to meet the real-life characters.[16] Thandel was launched on 9 December 2023 in Hyderabad.[17][18] [19] At its launch event, Telugu cinema stalwarts Venkatesh Daggubati (Naga Chaitanya’s uncle) and Nagarjuna (Naga Chaitanya’s father) attended as special guests. They offered their blessings to Naga Chaitanya, Sai Pallavi, and the entire team embarking on this thrilling new project.[20] [21]
The regular shoot of Thandel started in Udupi. Naga Chaitanya has started filming key scenes in this schedule. For the film, Chaitanya is believed to be sporting a rugged, massy look with a messy hairstyle to match his character.[22] The shoot is presently underway and the team is canning some crucial sequences and action parts in this lengthy schedule. An adrenaline-pumping sequence was filmed in the middle of the ocean. [23] The shoot took place near Mangalore in the Arabian Sea.[24] The movie glimpse was released on 6 January 2024. [25] [26] [27] In March 2024, an authentic Pakistani jail set was constructed for shooting purposes in Hyderabad.[28] That same month, a video surfaced of Pallavi and Chaitanya celebrating his assistant Konkipudi Venkatesh's birthday on the sets of Thandel.[29] To celebrate Pallavi's birthday, the team released a short video showcasing her presence on the film set and introducing her character. [30]
The film is currently slated for a theatrical release on 20 December 2024. Netflix has purchased the streaming rights for the film for a reported ₹40 crore (US$5.0 million).[31]
The music and background score are composed by Devi Sri Prasad in his fourth collaboration with Naga Chaitanya, after 100% Love (2011), Dhada (2011) and Rarandoi Veduka Chudham (2017), and his maiden collaboration with Chandoo.[15]
