The upcoming Telugu film 'Hreem', a unique blend of spiritual symbolism and spine-chilling horror, has successfully completed its shooting schedule. Produced by Shiva Mallaala under the Shivam Media banner, the film is now moving into the post-production phase at a rapid pace.
Directed by Rajesh Ravouri, 'Hreem' promises to bring to the screen a gripping "true story" that has never been told before.
The Mystery Behind the Title
The title 'Hreem' is not just a word but a powerful Bija Akshara (seed syllable) in Indian spirituality. The makers have broken down the significance of the characters within the title to reflect the core philosophy of the film:
-
Ha (హ): Represents Dharma (Righteousness)
-
Ra (ర): Represents Artha (Prosperity)
-
Ee (ఈ): Represents Kama (Desire)
-
Ma (మ): Represents Moksha (Liberation)
By combining these four Purusharthas (goals of human life), the film aims to deliver a narrative that transcends standard horror tropes.

The film was shot across atmospheric locations to capture its eerie essence:
-
First Schedule: Filmed in the rustic locales of Pedda Pendyala village near Warangal.
-
Second Schedule: Completed in the dense HMT Colony forest areas of Hyderabad.
