Naga Chaitanya’s upcoming film “Custody” is all set to hit the theaters this Friday amid high expectations. The movie’s team has managed to create a buzz around the film with an impressive trailer and aggressive promotions. Directed by Venkat Prabhu, the Telugu-Tamil bilingual cop action drama has been generating exceptional reports from industry insiders.
While underwhelming advance bookings had raised concerns about the movie’s potential, a recent special screening for a select few industry insiders has instilled confidence that it will be a blockbuster hit. The screenplay is said to be the standout aspect of the film, with its twists, turns, and action sequences receiving praise.
“Custody” is the first-ever collaboration between Naga Chaitanya and Venkat Prabhu. Along with Chaitanya, the movie also features Arvind Swami, Sarath Kumar, Krithi Shetty, Priyamani, Premji, Vennela Kishore, and Sampath Raj in pivotal roles. The film will be dubbed and released in Hindi in addition to Telugu and Tamil. Illayaraja and Yuvan Shankar Raja composed the music and score, while SR Kathir is the cinematographer.
As the theater industry eagerly anticipates its release on May 12, the hope is that “Custody” will meet and exceed expectations, providing some much-needed relief to theater owners.
