Arabia Kadali is a fictional series that tells a heartrending and emotionally charged story of a group of fishermen from rival villages who accidentally drift into international waters and find themselves imprisoned in a foreign land. At the heart of the series are two intertwined journeys—Badiri’s and his fellow fishermen’s harrowing ordeal through treacherous seas and captivity, and Ganga’s courageous rise as a woman who dares to challenge the system. Along the way, they form unexpected friendships, forge new relationships, and confront formidable foes. The series is a gripping tale of resilience, of brotherhood born in adversity, and of an unrelenting fight for freedom and justice against all odds. In a world divided by borders, Arabia Kadali reminds us that humanity is innate.
“Arabia Kadali is a gripping Telugu drama that celebrates the tale of resilience and courage of ordinary men caught in extraordinary circumstances.” said Nikhil Madhok, director and head of originals, Prime Video, India. “The series brings to life a myriad of human emotions – mistrust, unity, pride, and the instinct to survive, in a way that will deeply resonate with viewers. With compelling performances by Satya Dev and Anandhi, alongside a highly talented ensemble cast, driven by the stellar creative team behind it, Arabia Kadali is a strong addition to our growing slate of Telugu Originals. We are looking forward to bringing this impactful story to our customers on August 8.”
“Arabia Kadali is much more than just another series for us. It’s a deeply moving story of grit and determination,” said producer Y. Rajeev Reddy. “What sets it apart is the seamless blend of authentic storytelling, standout performances by Satyadev and Anandhi, and visually striking cinematography that captures both grand scale and emotional nuance. Along with Prime Video, we’ve brought this vision to life at the scale it deserves. We believe Arabia Kadali, with its emotional depth and deeply humane narrative, will strike a chord with audiences in India and around the world when it premieres on August 8, exclusively on Prime Video.”
