The trailer for Patang, a lively sports comedy starring debutants Preethi Pagadala, Vamssi Pujit, and Pranav Kaushik, alongside Anu Hassan, S.P. Charan, Vadlamani Srinivas, Vishnu Oi, and Sivanarayana, has been unveiled at a high-profile Hyderabad event. Directed by Praneeth Prattipati and produced by Vijay Shekhar, Sampath Maka, Suresh Kothinti, and Naani Bandreddi (in association with Ramya Vemulapati) under Cinematic Elements, Rishaan Cinemas, and Monsoon Tales, the film is presented by Suresh Babu of Suresh Productions. Building on a hit teaser, chart-topping songs, and buzzworthy promos, Patang targets a festive worldwide theatrical release on December 25, 2025, with exciting cameos from Gautham Vasudev Menon, SS Kanchi, and Naveen.
Acclaimed director Deva Katta launched the trailer, praising its energetic vibe and youth-appeal elements like friendship, romance, and musical highs. He called it a "unique effort" with superhit potential, thrilled by the cast's infectious energy and predicting strong theatre entertainment. Katta shared a personal tie with producer Naani Bandreddi, recalling their Autonagar Surya collaboration where a Pawan Kalyan-voiced teaser drew buzz, expressing joy in launching this promising project.
Co-producer Ramya Vemulapati evoked childhood kite-flying nostalgia, promising a fresh, realistic cinematic thrill. Vamssi Poojith (playing "Whisky," a mass Hyderabadi role) raved about the trailer's mind-blowing VFX kite sequences, especially the 30-minute finale, claiming it's Telugu cinema's best 2025 release—coinciding with his birthday. Debutant Pranav Kaushik thanked producers for their bold faith in a fresh cast, highlighting big-budget VFX and parental support for a potential hit. Veteran Vadlamani Srinivas (his 100th film) lauded the youthful team's vibe and Naani's dedication, wishing it swells from "a drop to an ocean" of crores.
The event drew Rahul Mopidevi, CEO Adinarayana, Nani Bandreddi, Sampath Maka, and others, amplifying anticipation for this kite-flying spectacle.
