Chennai – Director Sriram Venu’s upcoming emotional action drama Thammudu, starring Nithiin in the lead role, has been cleared by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) with an ‘A’ certificate.
The production house, Sri Venkateswara Creations, announced the news on its official X handle, writing:
“Action, adventure, and adrenaline-pumping moments. The epic journey of #Thammudu takes a new turn with ‘A’ from Censor. The purpose and promise justify everything! #ThammuduOnJuly4th.”
Confirming the certification, actor Nithiin also posted:
“The epic journey of #Thammudu takes a new turn with ‘A’ from the Censor.”
Slated for release on July 4, Thammudu has generated significant buzz among fans and film enthusiasts, particularly because it marks the comeback of actress Laya to the big screen. She completed dubbing for her role last week. Laya plays the character of Jhansi Kiranmayee in the film.
Earlier this month, the makers released a teaser that revealed key elements of the story. Nithiin portrays a trained archer, and the plot centers on the emotional bond between a brother and his sister, who is striving to keep a heartfelt promise.
The narrative is set in a mysterious place called Ambaragodugu, a location with only one way in and out. The teaser suggests a grim and inescapable atmosphere, where Nithiin’s sister and her child are seemingly trapped. Despite warnings for his safety, Nithiin’s character appears determined to enter the perilous region.
The teaser ends with a powerful dialogue from Nithiin:
“You are considered dead even if you’re alive if you can’t keep your word. You’re considered alive even if you’re dead when you keep your promise.”
The ensemble cast includes Sapthami Gowda, Saurabh Sachdeva, Swasika, Hari Teja, Srikanth Iyyengar, Temper Vamshi, Chammak Chandra, and Varsha Bollamma.
Produced by Raju – Shirish, the film features music by B. Ajaneesh Loknath. Cinematography is handled by K.V. Guhan, Sameer Reddy, and Setu, while editing is by Sh Prawin Pudi. Art direction is by G. M. Sekhar.
The action sequences are choreographed by Vikram Mor, Real Satish, Ravi Verma, and Ram Krishan, promising high-octane stunts in line with the film’s intense tone. (Source: IANS)
