Sun Feb 02 22:50:00 IST 2025: **Naga Chaitanya’s ‘Thandel’ Pre-Release Event to be Closed to Public**
HYDERABAD, INDIA – The pre-release event for the upcoming Telugu film “Thandel,” starring Naga Chaitanya, will be held on Sunday evening in Hyderabad. While the event was highly anticipated, with Allu Arjun and Sandeep Reddy Vanga slated as chief guests, the film’s production team has announced that it will be closed to the public.
The decision, attributed to unspecified reasons, has disappointed many fans who were looking forward to attending the event, particularly given the rare opportunity to see Allu Arjun and Sandeep Reddy Vanga together. The team has requested fans to watch the event’s live broadcast on various media platforms instead.
“Thandel,” directed by Chandu Mondeti, is a love story based on real events. It features Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi in the lead roles, with music composed by Devi Sri Prasad. The film is produced by Bunny Vasu and presented by Allu Aravind. The film’s release is scheduled for February 7th. The event was expected to be a large-scale affair and Allu Arjun’s presence, his first public appearance at a film event since the Sandhya Theater incident, generated significant buzz.
