This October 25, 2024, the Telugu film Pottel is set to make its highly anticipated debut in theaters. Starring Yuva Chandraa Krishna, Ananya Nagalla, and Ajay in pivotal roles, the film is written and directed by the talented Sahit Mothkhuri.
The recently released trailer is a powerful, emotionally charged glimpse into the film, with the director’s authenticity shining through. Set in 1980, Pottel tells the poignant story of a father who is determined to give his daughter an education that could transform her life. However, their aspirations face opposition from the village’s influential figure, who refuses due to their different social backgrounds. Meanwhile, the father, a humble shepherd, accidentally loses a sacred goat, inciting the wrath of the bigwig, who decides to sacrifice the girl as a form of retribution. The gripping trailer, paired with a hauntingly fitting soundtrack, elevates the emotional depth of the story, while the visuals are both stirring and impactful. Audiences will have to wait for the cinematic release to experience the full effect.
The makers are confident that this raw and honest tale, set in a Vidarbha village in Telangana, will strike a chord with audiences. Produced by Nishank Reddy Kudithi and Suresh Kumar Sadige, Pottel showcases the striking cinematography of Monish Bhupathi Raju and the evocative music of Shekar Chandra.
