Prime Video, India’s most-loved entertainment destination, today dropped the powerful trailer of its upcoming fictional Telugu Original series Arabia Kadali, ahead of its worldwide premiere on August 8. Created by Krish Jagarlamudi and Chintakindi Srinivas Rao, the series is produced under the banner of First Frame Entertainments Pvt Ltd by Y. Rajeev Reddy and Sai Babu Jagarlamudi. Directed by V. V. Surya Kumar, this emotionally intense survival drama features Satya Dev and Anandhi in lead roles alongside a stellar ensemble cast including Nassar, Raghu Babu, Dalip Tahil, Poonam Bajwa, Prabhavathi, Harsh Roshan, Pratyusha Sadhu, Kota Jayaram, Vamsi Krishna, Bharath Bhatia, Chandra Pratap Thakur, Danish Bhatt, Ravi Varma, Amith Tiwari, Nihar Pandya, and Alok Jain. Arabia Kadali premieres exclusively on Prime Video in India and over 240 countries and territories worldwide on August 8.
The trailer offers a stirring glimpse into Arabia Kadali – a gripping, high-stakes drama that captures the despair of confinement, the longing to return home, and the unbreakable spirit of hope. It follows the harrowing journey of fishermen from rival villages who, after inadvertently crossing international borders, are forced to rely on each other when they find themselves imprisoned on foreign soil. As tensions mount and loyalties are tested, the series promises an emotionally gripping and intense narrative. Haunting music and immersive visuals heighten the ordeal of these fishermen trapped in a living nightmare far from home. Will these innocent men, who brave the fury of the sea every day, survive the storm they face on unfamiliar land?
“Arabia Kadali is more than just a survival drama, it is a deeply human story about endurance, identity, and the borders that divide us,” said director V.V. Surya Kumar. “The idea was to explore what happens when rivals are forced to rely on one another in the most extreme of circumstances. Every scene in this series is grounded in human truth, and the performances reflect the quiet strength and vulnerability of those who live life at the margins. Working with such a committed cast and crew has been an incredible experience, and I’m grateful to Prime Video for giving us the creative space to bring this vision to life. I can’t wait for audiences to dive in the world we have created
Working on Arabia Kadali has been one of the most intense and fulfilling journeys of my career. The story is raw, honest, and emotionally gripping, it demanded everything from me as an actor,” said actor Satya Dev who plays Badiri. “Stepping into the shoes of a character caught between hardship and sacrifice was both humbling and creatively challenging. Working with the incredible cast and crew has been an immensely rewarding experience, and I can’t wait for audiences in India and across the world experience our labour of love.”
“Arabia Kadali is a story that moved me deeply the moment I read the script,” said actor Anandhi who plays Ganga. “Ganga is a layered character – she is strong, vulnerable, tenacious and driven by love and hope. Portraying the journey of a woman fighting against injustice, when the odds are stacked against her, was challenging but immensely fulfilling. I can’t wait for audiences to experience it when the series premieres on Prime Video.”
