Popular actress Samantha has stepped into film production. Her first film as a producer under the Tra La La Moving Pictures banner is titled Subham, directed by Praveen Kandregula. The film’s background score is composed by Vivek Sagar, while Clinton Cerejo has provided the music. Subham is set to release worldwide on May 9. Ahead of its release, a pre-release event was held in Visakhapatnam on Sunday.
Speaking at the event, Samantha said: “Every time I come to Vizag, the film turns out to be a blockbuster. Seeing the love from fans here made me understand what real affection feels like. When I saw our director Praveen’s energy, I was completely moved. As a producer, I began this project with a fresh perspective. I started the Tra La La production banner with the goal of telling unique stories with new people and entertaining audiences. That’s my vision. Please watch our film with your family on May 9. You’ll leave the theater with a happy smile after watching it.”
Director Praveen Kandregula said, “Subham is a remarkable film. Telugu cinema hasn’t seen content like this before – it’s rare to get something so fresh. Horror-comedy in this form hasn’t been explored here. I owe this journey to Samantha; without her support, Subham wouldn’t be where it is today. I’m always indebted to Raj & DK for trusting me with Cinema Bandi. Writers are the backbone of any film, and Vasanth has provided brilliant content. Harshith delivered a natural performance, and Srinivas was not just a director but also acted alongside us. Shalini is a great writer, and Charan did an excellent job. Those who catch the morning show are truly lucky. By Saturday, the buzz will spread, and everyone will be talking about it. This will be a blockbuster.”
Writer Vasanth said, “This project reached this stage only because of Samantha. Her involvement brought attention to this film. Praveen has a child-like spirit and immense passion for cinema. We had earlier worked together on Cinema Bandi, and Raj gave us valuable input. People often underestimate serials, but I hold them in high regard, and we’ve portrayed that in a horror format here. It’s a film families can watch together. Our movie releases on May 9 – don’t miss it in theatres.”
Actor Harshith Reddy said: “After Mail, I met Raj & DK at the airport, and that marked the beginning of Subham. Vasanth’s story is fantastic, and Praveen has brought it to life with magic. I’m lucky to have worked with Praveen. The story united all of us. Shreya, Sravanthi, and Shalini have all performed brilliantly. My journey is quite similar to Charan’s. Srinivas worked well with us. Clinton’s songs are amazing, and Vivek Sagar’s BGM will shake the theatres. I really admire Samantha garu, and I’m proud to be the lead in her first production. Samantha garu’s projects stand for quality and honesty. Thank you, Samantha garu, for making a film like Subham. Watch it on May 9.”
Actor Charan Peri said, “I felt really sad after shooting in Vizag ended – I didn’t want to leave. All films shot here become hits. In my college days, Samantha garu had a huge craze. I truly admire her and respect her dedication and passion for cinema. The combination of Praveen and Vasanth is fantastic. Subham includes elements of horror, comedy, and more – watch it only in theaters on May 9.”
Actor Srinivas Gavireddy said, “Samantha took a bold step by producing Subham. In this film, she plays the role of a mother figure – both on-screen and off, introducing many new artists. Praveen Kandregula is a great person, and Vasanth’s writing is superb. Himan was very focused on set, and Mrudul’s camera work is commendable. I made many good friends through this film. It’s a must-watch on May 9.”
Actress Shriya Kontham said, “Thank you, Samantha garu, for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. Praveen Kandregula took great care of all of us. Please don’t miss our film releasing on May 9.”
Actress Shravani Lakshmi said, “Thanks to Samantha garu and Praveen garu for giving us this opportunity. The Subham team feels like a family now. Watch our film on May 9th.”
Actress Shalini said. “The story of Subham is really good. Vasanth’s writing is excellent. I’m happy to be part of such a meaningful project. Praveen brings an infectious energy to the set. I’m grateful to Samantha garu for this chance. Subham is releasing on May 9th.
