Thandel by Naga Chaitanya and Chandoo Mondeti is riding high and doing sensational business at the box office. Released on February 7 under the Geetha Arts 2 banner, with Bunny Vasu as the producer, the film has made its mark with the gripping storytelling and powerful performances. Celebrating the phenomenal success of the film, Nagarjuna was the special guest at the success meet, and Akkineni fans are finally in high spirits.
At the event, Nagarjuna, brimming with joy that the film cracked it big! He expressed pride in seeing Naga Chaitanya move up further and acknowledged the massive support from fans, finally giving credit to the film’s team for bringing forth a visual experience that touched chords with the audience.
The success of Thandel was the subject of much of the enchanting night itself, but director Chandoo Mondeti stunned everyone with the exciting announcement of his next project. It was about a historical drama that may refresh the iconic character Tenali Ramakrishna-the role made legendary by ANR.
Chandoo mentioned that he loved ANR as Tenali Ramakrishna and wanted to suit that timeless tale for the modern audience. Such statements created a frenzy in Akkineni fandom, sparking speculation and anticipation for what, at least going by Chandoo’s words, could become a landmark project in Naga Chaitanya’s career.
With Thandel knocking on 100 crore, the film has emerged as one of the year’s biggest hits. Chandoo Mondeti credited music composer Devi Sri Prasad with enhancing Thandel’s impact and praised Bunny Vasu for his unwavering support throughout the journey. Along with Allu Aravind, he was acknowledged as a true pathfinder who made immense contributions to making the project possible.
The Chandoo Mondeti–Naga Chaitanya duo has undoubtedly struck gold with Thandel, and now, fans eagerly await their next cinematic spectacle. If the Tenali Ramakrishna project materializes, it could mark a defining chapter in Naga Chaitanya’s filmography, much like Annamayya and Sri Ramadasu did for Nagarjuna.
With excitement running high, all eyes are now on the official confirmation of this ambitious venture!
