Director Prashanth Neel, celebrated for his blockbuster ventures, has joined forces with Mythri Movie Makers to present a brand-new horror film, marking a fresh and ambitious entry into the genre. The project was officially launched with a traditional puja ceremony, attended by the cast and crew, underlining the team’s respect for cultural traditions.
The film is directed by Keerthan Nadagowda, with producers Naveen Yerneni and Y. Ravi Shankar at the helm under the Mythri banner. The storyline, set in a remote village, centres on a mysterious medical college plagued by supernatural occurrences. The makers promise an intriguing mix of science, superstition, and a chilling secret that has never been explored in Indian cinema, setting the stage for a distinctive cinematic experience.
Emerging talents Surya Raj Veerabathini, Hanu Reddy, and Preeti Pagadala lead the cast, with supporting roles performed by Sri Vaishnava and Shashank Patil. The film’s technical crew brings together a strong team, including cinematographer Dinesh Divakaran, music composer Venky G.G., and dialogue writer Mohan B.S. Production design and costumes are overseen by Ullas Haidoor and Samruddhi Patel, with Sharnitha Valluru contributing to the creative design, promising a visually compelling and immersive experience.
The team has confirmed that principal photography will commence shortly, and industry insiders have already expressed anticipation for the project. With Prashanth Neel’s backing, a talented ensemble of newcomers, and a technically strong crew, expectations are high that this horror film could redefine the genre within Telugu cinema.
Observers suggest that the film’s unique approach, blending elements of science and superstition, sets it apart from conventional horror narratives, offering audiences a fresh and thought-provoking experience. The combination of new faces, innovative storytelling, and high production values is expected to capture significant attention both at the box office and among horror enthusiasts.
