About Thandel

Presented by Allu Aravind and produced by Bunny Vas under Geetha Arts, the film was supposed to be released last year but was postponed to capitalize on Valentine’s Day. Thandel is Chaitanya’s biggest opener. The film is based on a true incident of fishermen from Srikakulam accidentally drifting into Pakistani waters and being detained there.

Chaitanya plays Raju, a fisherman who is made thandel (a fishing ship’s captain) ahead of a fishing trip near Gujarat. Pallavi plays his lover Satya, whom he lovingly calls bujji thalli (loved one). The film received mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike, but Chaitanya and Sai were praised for their performances.
