Thammudu (2025) is a Telugu-language emotional action drama directed by Venu Sriram and produced by Dil Raju under Sri Venkateswara Creations. The film stars Nithiin in a powerful role as a devoted brother who embarks on a perilous mission to rescue his sister from a mysterious, isolated region called Ambaragodugu. The story explores themes of sibling love, sacrifice, and redemption, with a gripping narrative that blends high-stakes action with emotional depth.

Laya makes a notable comeback as Jhansi Kiranmayee, Nithiin’s sister, while Sapthami Gowda, Varsha Bollamma, Saurabh Sachdeva, Hari Teja, and Temper Vamsi round out the ensemble cast. The antagonist, played by Sachdeva, adds a philosophical edge, claiming, “I believe in the creation that comes out of destruction”.

The film is visually striking, with cinematography by K.V. Guhan and music by B. Ajaneesh Loknath, known for his work in Kantara. The forest setting and stylized action sequences elevate the film’s intensity, while the emotional core keeps it grounded.

Thammudu releases theatrically on July 4, 2025, and will stream on Netflix post its run. With its blend of sentiment and spectacle, the film marks a significant moment in Nithiin’s career and promises a compelling cinematic experience.
