Immortality, Guilt & Unbridled Passion: Director Ram’s Multi-Award-Winning Thriller Sanchari Set for Grand Telugu Release!
Telugu audiences have always held a deep appreciation for meaningful cinema that breaks away from formulaic tropes. When high-concept drama merges profound philosophical layers with nail-biting psychological tension, it naturally commands the attention of genuine film enthusiasts. Stepping onto Telugu big screens with exceptional international film festival pedigree is Sanchari, starring Malayalam star Nivin Pauly, versatile actor Soori, and powerhouse performer Anjali in central roles.
Originally conceptualized in Tamil as Yezhu Kadal Yezhu Malai by master auteur Director Ram (the visionary behind celebrated classics like Thanga Meenkal, Taramani, and Peranbu), the film has been dubbed into Telugu as Sanchari.
Brought to the Telugu theatrical market by producer M. Subba Reddy under the Colors and Claps Entertainments banner, the romantic psychological drama is all set for a worldwide release on Thursday, October 1, 2026.
