The film is currently in fast-paced production, with the first look and "Essence of Thandel" having received a positive response from audiences.

Director Chandu Mondeti is considering a release during Sankranti but is uncertain due to the presence of other films, such as Ram Charan's Game Changer and Balakrishna's 109. He mentioned that if Charan's film is set for Sankranti, Thandel may not be released in January. An official announcement regarding the release date is still pending, but the shooting is expected to wrap up in about ten days.
