Cinema Express Desk

Sivaji, Navdeep and Bindhu Madhavi-headlined social satire drama film Dhandoraa is all set to arrive on OTT soon. Directed by Murali Kanth D, the film will start streaming on Prime Video from January 14 ahead of the Sankranti festival.

Released on December 25 last year, the film was met with positive reviews from audiences and critics. The story of Dhandoraa unfolds in two timelines. In 2004, the plot revolves around an privileged-caste girl falling in love with an oppressed-caste boy. Though the boy is wealthy and well-settled, the elders of the privileged caste girl refuse to accept their relationship. Conflicts arise not just between castes, but even within the privileged caste members, leading to tragic consequences that ruin many lives. In the present timeline, Sivaji (Sivaji), a privileged-caste landlord, passes away. His son Vishnu (Shree Nandu) is estranged from him, as the father and son have not spoken for years. The village sarpanch (Navdeep) tries to pacify everyone and manage the tense situation. As more details unravel about Sivaji’s life, it also leads to more questions.

Our CE review of the film read, "The biggest strength of Dhandoraa lies in its writing. Director Murali Kanth deserves full credit for his strong narration and confident execution, especially as a debutant. The cinematography captures the rural atmosphere authentically, and Mark K Robin’s music works well. The title song is particularly impactful and one of the best in recent times."

The supporting cast of Dhandoraa includes Raadhya, Muralidhar Goud, Ravi Krishna, Manika, Aditi Bhavaraju, and Mounika Reddy. The film was produced by Ravindra Benerjee Muppaneni under Loukya Entertainments. Mark K Robin scored the film's music. The rest of the technical crew includes Venkat R Shakamuri as the cinematographer, Srujana Adusumilli as the editor, Kranthi Priyam as the production designer.
