Akkineni Naga Chaitanya’s highly anticipated film Thandel, directed by Chandu Mondeti and produced by Geetha Arts, is creating significant buzz among audiences. With Sai Pallavi cast as the heroine, this film marks Chay's third collaboration with Mondeti, further elevating expectations.

Originally slated for a December 20 release to coincide with the Christmas season, Thandel is now reassessing its launch date due to increased competition from multiple films, including the highly anticipated Game Changer starring Ram Charan. In light of this competitive landscape, the filmmakers are considering a release during the Sankranti festival or possibly waiting until the summer.

Currently, the team is leaning towards a Sankranti release on January 13, just three days after Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara debuts on January 10. However, this decision brings its own set of challenges, as the Sankranti season may also see releases from Venkatesh and potentially Balakrishna, intensifying the competition.

Despite these hurdles, the Thandel team remains confident in the film's content and its ability to resonate with audiences. A formal confirmation regarding the release date is eagerly awaited, and fans are keen to see how this much-anticipated project unfolds in the crowded festive market.
