Venkatesh's
latest
action
thriller
Saindhav,
directed
by

Kolanu

one
of
the
much-hyped
Sankranti
releases
of
2024

entirely
new
avatar

to
go
back
to
his
old
menacing
ways
for
his
daughter.
The
movie
stars

Srinath,
Andrea
Jeremiah,
and
Ruhani
Sharma
as
the
female
leads
in
addition
to
the
Bollywood
actor
Nawazudding
Siddiqui,
who
made
his
Telugu
debut
as
an
antagonist.
Upon
its
theatrical
release,
Saindhav
earned
a
lukewarm
response
at
the
box
office.
