ZEE5 Global’s Telugu horror-thriller Kishkindhapuri premieres on October 17, bringing chilling folklore and edge-of-the-seat tension to screens worldwide.
ZEE5 Global is set to premiere the much-anticipated Telugu horror-thriller Kishkindhapuri on October 17 at 6 PM IST, bringing supernatural folklore to life through gripping storytelling and haunting visuals. Directed by Kaushik Pegallapati and produced by Sahu Garapati under the Shine Screens banner, the film stars Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas, Anupama Parameswaran, Makarand Deshpande, and Tanikella Bharani.
The eerie narrative unfolds in an abandoned radio station, where a group on a ghost tour awakens a dormant spirit. What begins as innocent curiosity spirals into a terrifying ordeal as the group becomes trapped with no way out — triggering a psychological and supernatural nightmare.
“This was one of the toughest roles I’ve done,” shared Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas, who plays the lead. “Horror requires reacting to things that aren’t really there. Even off-camera, the creepy atmosphere stayed with me. I think viewers will love how the film keeps you guessing.”
Co-star Anupama Parameswaran added, “My character isn’t your typical horror film trope. She’s scared, vulnerable, but finds inner strength. That’s what drew me in — it’s raw and real. The locations themselves felt like characters, pushing us deeper into our roles.”
ZEE5 Global, accessible in over 190 countries, continues its streak of regional blockbuster content with this Telugu spine-chiller. With its mix of folklore, suspense, and cinematic tension, Kishkindhapuri is shaping up to be a go-to watch for horror enthusiasts this Diwali season.
Get ready for chills and thrills as Kishkindhapuri premieres exclusively on ZEE5 Global this October 17.
