Sai Pallavi’s Unchanged Charm Impresses Sandeep Reddy Vanga

The pre-release event of Thandel was held last night in Hyderabad. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga attended as the Chief Guest and praised Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi.

He revealed that he wanted Sai Pallavi as the heroine for Arjun Reddy but a coordinator told him she avoids romantic scenes and doesn’t wear sleeveless outfits.

So he had to look for other options. Sandeep said he loved the trailer and Thandel’s songs and believes the film has a strong emotional connection.

He also appreciated the chemistry between Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi recalling how he liked Chaitanya since working on Nagarjuna’s Kedi.

He praised Sai Pallavi for staying true to herself over the years. He also wished the best to producer Bunny Vasu and music director Devi Sri Prasad.

Confident about the film he said Thandel will be a treat for Akkineni fans. The movie is set to release worldwide on February 7th.
