Tammareddy Bharadwaj Backs Upcoming Thriller Sandigdham at Pre-Release Event
The promotional campaign for the independent suspense drama Sandigdham has intensified ahead of its theatrical debut. Bankrolled by Sandhya Tiruveedhula under the Thirdha Creations banner, the film is written and directed by Pardasaradhi Kommoju.
Ahead of its global theatrical release on May 29th, the production team hosted a grand pre-release event on Tuesday, featuring veteran filmmaker Tammareddy Bharadwaj as the chief guest.
The film’s promotional assets—including its initial teaser, tracks, and trailer—have built positive word-of-mouth, especially among fans of raw, wilderness-based thrillers.
Tammareddy Bharadwaj (Chief Guest)
"It is refreshing to see a pure Telugu title like Sandigdham being used today. The visual promotional content clearly highlights the immense physical effort the young team poured into shooting this narrative within dense forest terrains.
While the promotional landscape has shifted heavily toward digital and social media platforms, the fundamental challenge remains ensuring audiences know a film is hitting screens. The industry and movie lovers must step forward to fiercely promote small, concept-driven films. I sincerely hope this passionate project achieves major commercial success."
Pardasaradhi Kommoju (Director)
"Bringing a small-scale film to theatres is a far greater challenge than actually filming it. I am incredibly grateful to my producer and wife, Sandhya, for standing firmly behind this vision. The entire cast delivered exceptional performances, and the technical support from editor Vishwan Raj and composer Gautham Raviram helped us shape the final output exactly as intended. It is designed to thoroughly entertain, and we look forward to the audience's reception on May 29."
