Devotional thrillers with unique storylines are receiving a positive response from audiences. Now, another film in this genre, Shanmukh, is set to join the list. This devotional suspense thriller, titled Shanmukha, features Aadi Sai Kumar as the lead actor, with Avika Gor as the female lead. The film is directed by Shanmugam Sappani.
Shanmukha is being produced by SAPbro Productions, known for the pan-India film Sasana Sabha. This marks their second production, presented by the Sappani Brothers and produced by Tulasi Ram Sappani, Shanmugam Sappani, and Ramesh Yadav. The film has completed shooting and is currently in post-production. The makers have announced that it will be released worldwide on March 21.
Speaking at a press meet, Aadi Sai Kumar expressed his happiness, saying: “Even before its release, all the digital, satellite, and theatrical rights of the film across languages have been sold at fancy rates, which is very exciting. It has been over a year since my last release, and finally, I’m coming back with Shanmukha on March 21. The entire credit for this film goes to director and producer Shanmugam Sappani, who worked incredibly hard. The business success of this film is a great joy. Ravi Basrur’s music and background score will take the movie to another level. It was wonderful working with Avika Gor, and I hope to collaborate with her again. I strongly believe this film will be a hit because good films always receive audience support.”
Avika Gor shared her excitement, saying: “Like everyone else, I am eagerly waiting for this film. It is a very special movie in my career. Thank you to everyone who supported me. Doing a devotional film was a happy experience. I got to play a unique role that every artist dreams of. I’m very thankful for this opportunity. Aadi is an amazing co-actor, and working with Ravi Basrur was a dream come true.”
Chirag, who plays the antagonist, said: “This is an amazing devotional film with high production values. I got to play a unique character that I was eagerly waiting for. I am confident that the movie will impress everyone.”
Shanmugam Sappani, the director and producer, shared: “We are thrilled that the Hindi digital rights and theatrical rights for other states have been successfully sold. My friend Shashidhar Reddy is distributing the film in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Aadi will be seen as a powerful police officer in this movie. This devotional thriller is based on an extraordinary concept that hasn’t been explored before. We have crafted it with stunning visuals and exceptional graphics. Every character in the film is a highlight, making it a must-watch for families. The recently released Chandrakala song has received a great response, and I believe the film will also be well received.”
Actor Manoj Nandam also shared his thoughts: “I am grateful to be part of such a great film. I have always had a good bond with Aadi, and in this movie, he will be seen in a powerful police officer role with many different shades. I am confident this film will be a success.”
Shanmukha is shaping up to be an intriguing devotional thriller, promising a gripping story, strong performances, and high production values. Fans eagerly await its release on March 21.
