Sai Pallavi is one of the few talented actresses who captivates the audience with her beauty, acting, dance, and expressions. Whenever she is cast as the heroine in a movie, fans often assume that the film is bound to be a hit. Currently, she is playing the female lead in Thandel, where Nag Chaitanya stars as the hero.

Directed by Chandu Mondeti, Thandel is set to release worldwide on February 7. In the film, Sai Pallavi plays the role of Sathya, a girl from Srikakulam. The glimpses and trailers released so far suggest that her character will be memorable to the audience. Typically, actresses demand higher remuneration after a hit, but there has been talk that Sai Pallavi hasn’t demanded a market-appropriate fee, despite the number of hits she’s had.

However, in an unexpected turn, reports are circulating that Sai Pallavi will receive a top-range remuneration for Thandel. According to recent news, she will be paid Rs. 5 crores for the film, which, if true, would be the highest salary in her career. Based on real events that took place in Gujarat in 2018, the movie is being produced by Bunny Vasu under Geetha Arts, with music and background score by Anirudh Ravichander. Thandel marks the third collaboration between Nag Chaitanya and Chandu Mondeti, and expectations are high.
