Vedhika stars in the lead role of the movie Fear, produced by AR Abhi under the Dattatreya Media banner, with co-producer Sujatha Reddy. Directed by Dr. Haritha Gogineni, this suspense thriller features Arvind Krishna in a special role. Remarkably, Fear has already won over 60 awards at various prestigious international film festivals before its release. The film is gearing up for a grand theatrical release soon.
Today, the Telugu teaser for Fear was released by star hero Rana Daggubati, with the Tamil teaser unveiled by Vijay Sethupathi, the Kannada teaser by Kichcha Sudeep, the Malayalam teaser by Dileep, and the Hindi teaser by Emraan Hashmi, all through social media. Following this, the Fear teaser release event took place at Prasad Labs in Hyderabad.
During the event, actress Inaya Sultana commented, “The teaser for Fear is genuinely scary, and I loved it. This movie has already garnered awards at many international film festivals, and I believe even more will come after its release. Having seen the film, I can confidently say that Director Haritha has crafted it with great talent.”
Actor Meka Ramakrishna stated, “Director Haritha offered me a significant role in Fear. I’m also set to act in a film directed by Abhi next. We hope to create more films and provide opportunities for talented individuals. We request our media friends to help bring a remarkable movie like Fear to the audience.”
Actress Sahithi remarked, “Haritha has brilliantly directed this psychological thriller. If the teaser gave you chills, just wait for the trailer—it will be even scarier. I’m sure you will enjoy the film.”
Actor Anish Kuruvilla expressed, “Today is a special day for our director Haritha. I understand the emotions a new director feels when presenting their first film to the audience. You will soon witness Haritha’s talent as a director through Fear. She has developed a unique script for this project, and I wish the film great success.”
Music director Anup Rubens shared his thoughts: “I wish all the best to Haritha, a first-time director, and to Abhi, a first-time producer. Haritha is dedicated and ensures she achieves the desired output. Vedhika is a fantastic actress, and I was truly impressed by her performance while scoring the background music for this film. Arvind Krishna has also played a significant role. I hope this film brings recognition to our entire team.”
Praising producer AR, he said, “I enjoy commercial films, but Haritha’s suspense thriller captivated me. I believed that someone who can scare me at home will undoubtedly frighten the audience with Fear. There are four key elements to remember while watching this movie: Vedika’s performance, Haritha’s script, Anup’s music, and I Andrew’s visuals—all of which are highly impressive. Haritha made a great decision as a director in selecting this venue. She is not only beautiful but also delivers an amazing performance. Arvind Krishna has contributed significantly as well. The entire team has been very supportive, and I hope you will support Fear just as you did our first film, Lucky Lakshman.”
Director Dr. Haritha Gogineni said: “I have established five checkpoints for the heroine in the movie Fear, and Vedhika is more than capable of fulfilling them. I believe everyone will enjoy her stage performance. However, I must acknowledge that Anup Rubens dominates both as a music director and on stage as an actress. Our film has received awards at many prestigious international film festivals. When I shared this with my brother, he asked how many of those awards were purchased. It’s unfortunate that some people think this way, but these are genuine international film festivals, and such doubts are unfounded. I felt immense pride seeing India’s name on that list, more than all the awards our film has won.”
She added, “The story of Fear revolves around what happens when a girl faces unexpected situations that scare her in life. I want you to enjoy this movie in theaters, which is why I won’t reveal too much. We plan to release the film theatrically next month. It will be suitable for both theaters and OTT platforms, but to truly experience the suspense of the screenplay—visually and musically—you must watch it in theaters. We hope you all will support our film.”
Hero Arvind Krishna stated: “The movie Fear provided me with a fantastic experience. I received the Best Supporting Actor Award at the Rome Film Festival for my performance in this film, and I’m thrilled to share the screen with Vedika. Her dedication is inspiring and shows how hard one must work for a role. Our director Haritha is incredibly committed to this project. I’d like to thank producer Abhi and the entire cast and crew, who all worked together as a team, regardless of their roles. More details about Fear will be revealed in upcoming events.”
Heroine Vedhika said: “I need to connect with the team before agreeing to any film, and I really like the Fear team. I frequently travel for films in other languages, and I just came here from Chennai. After watching the teaser of Fear, all my stress disappeared. We are all very happy, and the entire team has put in tremendous effort for this film. Haritha has executed the project with such meticulous planning that everyone will appreciate it. I witnessed her passion for filmmaking; you would never guess this is her first movie. My role in this film has given me great satisfaction.”
She added, “The teaser was released in Telugu by Rana, in Tamil by Vijay Sethupathi, in Hindi by Emraan Hashmi, in Kannada by Kiccha Sudeep, and in Malayalam by Dileep. I thank them all. A suspense thriller like this requires a strong background score, and Anup delivered it effectively. Arvind Krishna’s dedication and passion have truly impressed me. Our film Fear has won 64 awards at international film festivals. We applied for various categories, and even in non-applied categories, there are films that have been well-received and awarded. I hope you all enjoy Fear.”
