Naga Chaitanya’s team has responded to recent reports stating that he has signed on for another web series, declaring the news to be untrue. They clarified that Chaitanya is currently focused on his film Thandel. His first web series, Doota, thrilled audiences, leading to speculation that he would green-light another series due to that success. However, his team has put a stop to those rumors.
Thandel is being directed by Chandu Mondeti and is being made on a pan-India scale. The film is based on various incidents that took place in the village of D. Matsyalesham in the Srikakulam district. It is a love story infused with themes of patriotism, featuring Chaitanya as a fisherman named Raju, with Sai Pallavi as the female lead.
