Thandel is more than just a film; it's an emotional rollercoaster that blends romance, patriotism, and real-life struggles into a compelling narrative. Inspired by true events, the film follows the heart-wrenching journey of Indian fishermen who accidentally cross into Pakistani waters and find themselves imprisoned, while their loved ones fight for their release.
Naga Chaitanya delivers one of his most intense performances, portraying the pain, resilience, and hope of a man caught in an unimaginable situation. Sai Pallavi shines as the woman who refuses to give up on love, making every emotional beat of the story hit even harder. Their chemistry adds depth to the story, making it even more powerful.
The cinematography beautifully captures the contrast between the vast, unpredictable ocean and the claustrophobic prison cells, enhancing the film's immersive experience. Devi Sri Prasad's soul-stirring background score amplifies the emotions, ensuring that every scene resonates deeply.
With a well-paced narrative, gripping second half, and a touching climax, Thandel is a must-watch for those who love emotionally charged dramas based on real-life incidents. It's a film that stays with you long after the credits roll.

Went with flat expectations and was pleasantly surprised, although not completely satisfied.
Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi's chemistry is the major asset of the film, it's what keeps you engaged despite the routine stuff on offer. But introducing the patriotism angle in the 2nd half is a major letdown, neither it's fresh nor it engages, climax wrapped up conveniently.
Naga Chaitanya has shown good improvement in terms of acting and screen presence, Sai Pallavi continues where she left from Amaran, but it feels repetitive. Others have got nothing.
Technically, DSP's work deserves huge applause, shows he's still the best in the business, Shamdat's camera work is superb, editing by Navin Nooli could have been better, 2nd half feels so long and dragged, production values by Geetha Arts are fine.
Coming to Director Chandoo Mondeti, has done a good job when it comes to love story, but the patriotism parts felt unnecessary and forced.
BOTTOMLINE: Not a long lasting, but fairly enjoyable love story.

A love story that pulls at the strings of your heart. The lead pair of Naga Chaitanya & Sai Pallavi get into the skins of their respective characters with such finesse. A word for Naga Chaitanya - his transformation into Thandel Raju can easily be a case study for other actors who wish to play such layered & complex characters. This is quite simply his best performance by far in his career. DSP's songs & BGM elevate the movie by leaps & bounds, coming at the right places and in the right format. Director Chandoo dis hos best in turning this real-life story into a magnificent celluloid creation with the right amount of drama and emotion. Overall, for movie lovers across the world, Thandel is a must-watch. Period.
This film is supposedly based on real incidents, but the way it's narrated makes it feel more like a cinematic exaggeration than a grounded story. While a few moments grab your attention, most of the film struggles to keep you hooked. The screenplay does have a handful of well-executed scenes, but beyond that, it's just a routine ride. Patriotism is unnecessarily forced into the screenplay for commercial appeal.
Naga Chaitanya clearly puts in a lot of effort, and his dedication is visible. However, he doesn't quite become the character he's playing. While this might be one of his better performances, he still needs to pick scripts that truly suit his strengths.
Sai Pallavi, as always, delivers a solid performance. But here's the thing-she's so consistently good that this role feels like just another day at work for her. Nothing groundbreaking, just her usual excellence.
The rest of the cast does their job well-no complaints, but no surprises either.
On the technical side, the production values are respectable. The locations, sets, costumes, and makeup all fit the mood of the film. The cinematography is pleasing, and the music adds some flavor, though it doesn't particularly elevate the experience.
In the end, the film is neither great nor terrible-it just sits in the safe zone of mediocrity. Watch it if you're a fan of the lead actors, otherwise, you might not miss much.

Hearing a lot of reviews I happened to watch this movie. It was good in parts. As it was based on a real incident, those parts were good. The visual effects were definitely good. Music and cinematography was also good. Naga chaitanya and other actors deliver a great performance while Sai Pallavi's acting was top notch. However the things that didn't work well for me was certain jail scenes were disturbing, why it has to be shown that way whenever Indian movie makers take movies about Pakistan. Why can't they make movies like Bajrang bhaijaan?., also the climax of the movie was too clichéd and predictable..
Good movie but definetly not that great.
