Naga Chaitanya has been actively promoting Thandel along with the lead actress Sai Pallavi, director Chandoo Mondeti and producer Allu Aravind. The movie is aiming to release for Tamil and Hindi audiences on the same date. As part of the pre-release promotions, 'Thandel Jaathara' was announced and postponed with Allu Arjun as chief guest. However, Allu Arjun did not turn up to the closed-door event.

Allu Aravind later mentioned that Allu Arjun was suffering from gastritis after his return from a foreign country. These things aside, Naga Chaitanya, who is known for keeping his personal life under wraps, has been talking so much about his new wife Sobhita Dhulipala. He cannot stop but take her name in every event of Thandel.

Naga Chaitanya About Sobhita Dhulipala

During the trailer launch event at Vizag, the 'Majili' actor said, "I have a special connection with Vizag. I loved a girl from Vizag, married her and now she is the ruling party at my home. I have a request for you all. Thandel Vizag collections should shake the box office or else I will lose at my home." His remarks drew severe criticism with many commenting on how he never spoke about his ex-wife so much during their living together.

At Thandel Jaathara, the actor again revealed that he calls Sobhita 'Bujji Thalli' fondly. He continued that Sobhita was upset that they used the term for a song in the movie, which is a chartbuster.
