Global, 5th April 2024: ZEE5 Global, the world’s largest streaming platform for South Asian content, is thrilled to announce the digital premiere of the Telugu blockbuster ‘Gaami.’ Following its theatrical success, this visually stunning Telugu film is all set to entertain audiences starting April 12 in Telugu along with Tamil and Kannada dubs only on ZEE5 Global. Produced by Karthik Kult Kreations, presented by V Celluloid and written and directed by debutant Vidyadhar Kagita, Gaami stars Vishwak Sen, Chandini Chowdary, Abhinaya, Harika Pedada, and Mohammad Samad in pivotal roles.
An emotional tale and a stunning cinematic experience come together seamlessly in debut director Vidyadhar Kagita’s Telugu film ‘Gaami’. Anchored by Vishwak Sen and Chandini Chowdary’s impressive performances, this anthology explores the triumph of the human spirit, making it a rewarding watch with enough substance. In addition to being a true visual spectacle, the film also manages to beautifully trigger a dialogue about humanity, nature, the need for compassion, and the catastrophic results of mankind’s efforts to alter nature.
Gaami chronicles the journey of Shankar (Vishwak Sen), an aghora afflicted by a rare condition that makes it impossible for him to feel the human touch. Driven by a desperate need for cure, he goes on a quest for the elusive Maalipatra, a mystical mushroom blooming once every 36 years atop Dronagiri mountain. Along his path, Shankar encounters Jahnavi (Chandini Chowdary), a microbiologist with a similar mission. Their intertwined destinies lead them through the breathtaking vistas of the Himalayas. Against this majestic backdrop, the film seamlessly integrates the southern Devadasi tradition with the rugged northern landscapes, exploring Indian culture’s lesser-known facets. Will their journey lead them to the answers they seek? Find out on April 12 as the film premieres on ZEE5 Global in Telugu, Tamil and Kannada.
Archana Anand, Chief Business Officer at ZEE5 Global said, “The success of our recent Telugu premiere of Hanu-Man has set the stage perfectly for Gaami’s arrival on ZEE5 Global! With ‘Gaami,’ we’ve pushed the envelope even further. At ZEE5 Global, we prioritize putting our viewers first, and that means providing them with unparalleled access to the best cinema. Gaami engaged viewers on the big screen, and we’re confident that its world digital premiere on ZEE5 Global will also be appreciated by our viewers.”
Producer Karthik Shabareesh of Karthik Kult Kreations said, “We are truly elated to collaborate with ZEE5 Global and take Gaami to 190+ countries. It’s a joyous moment for us to see our movie reaching audiences beyond the confines of theaters. The love and support we received from fans during its theatrical run were overwhelming, and we hope to receive the same response as we gear up for its digital debut on ZEE5 Global. The visually stunning picturization of Gaami promises to entertain and captivate audiences across the world and this is just the beginning”.
Director Vidhyadhar said, “Creating Gaami was a journey filled with numerous challenges, but seeing the film resonate so strongly with audiences makes every hurdle worth it. The success of our theatrical run was incredibly gratifying, and the positive messages I’ve received since then have been heartwarming. It took us more than five years of hard work and dedication to bring this vision to life and I couldn’t be happier to now share it with audiences worldwide through its digital premiere in Telugu, Tamil and Kannada only on ZEE5 Global. This film is a labor of our love and sweat, and I’m thrilled to see it reach new heights on a global platform”.
