“Thank You Dear” Pre-Release Press Meet Held Ahead Of August 1st Release

Thank You Dear, a suspense thriller with commercial elements and an intense cut-back screenplay, is all set to hit theatres on August 1st. Directed and written by Thota Sreekanth Kumar—who previously worked as an associate director under Krishna Vamsi—and produced by Pappu Balaji Reddy under the Maha Lakshmi Productions banner, the film stars Hebah Patel, Dhanush Raghumudri (of Thiranth fame), and Rekha Nirosha in lead roles.

This socially relevant film revolves around a global burning issue, packaged with emotional depth and family appeal. Even before its theatrical release, Thank You Dear has already garnered significant recognition. It was featured as a special screening during the Golden Jubilee Celebrations of the Hyderabad Film Club and won awards at the 15th Goa International Film Festival, including Best Director for Thota Sreekanth Kumar. Further accolades include:

The recently released trailer and songs have received an excellent response from the audience.
