A Gripping Story Around a Sacred Temple
Directed by debutant Ludheer Byreddy and produced by Mahesh Chandu under the banner of Moonshine Pictures, Haindava revolves around a centuries-old Dasavatara temple. The film’s title was revealed through a Title Announcement Glimpse that showcases a thrilling sequence.
Intense Action and Symbolism in the Title Announcement
The video opens in a dense jungle, where a group of miscreants attempts to destroy the sacred Dasavatara temple by setting it on fire. Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas enters the scene riding a bike, accompanied by a lion and a wild boar, while an eagle soars above. The visuals are rich in symbolism, with fish in the temple pond leaping in fury and a tortoise watching closely.

One significant detail includes a tattoo on the protagonist’s hand, which mirrors the snake deity (Adishesha Avatar) in the temple. This sets the stage for an intense battle as the hero prevents the destruction of the temple and takes on the villains with extraordinary force. A memorable moment shows the protagonist setting a bullock cart on fire and tying the villains to it with a rope, as the flames form the sacred Vishnu ‘Namalu’ shape. The symbolism continues with the faces of the lion and wild boar showing similar motifs, and the sky revealing multiple forms of Vishnu before the title Haindava is unveiled.
