Speaking of the survival drama at a promotional event, Naga Chaitanya made a request to his fans in Vizag to make the film a super-hit. 

Elaborating on his reason that has a deep connection to Sobhita Dhulipala, he said, "Vizag is so close to my heart that I fell in love with a Vizag ammayi (girl) and married her. Now, there's a piece of Vizag at my home too. So, brothers, I have a small request... The box office collection of Thandel in Vizag should be staggering; otherwise, I'll lose my honour at home."

Bankrolled by Bunny Vasu, Allu Aravind, and Koppineedi Vidya, Thandel's plotline is centered around how the Pakistan forces catch a fisherman, named Raju, played by Naga Chaitanya, from Srikakulam in international waters. 

Meanwhile, the music for the thriller drama, which encapsulates the characters' emotions alongside the intensity of the narrative, is composed by Devi Shri Prasad.
