Presented by Zee Studios and Prerna Arora, Jatadhara — a blend of devotion, spirituality, and supernatural energy — releases in theatres tomorrow.
A Different Kind of Spiritual Cinema
Jatadhara, which beautifully combines divine energy, devotion, and cinematic intensity, hits theatres tomorrow. Presented by Zee Studios and Prerna Arora, the film marks a bold and refreshing step in Indian storytelling.
As excitement builds, audiences are eager to witness how spirituality and the supernatural merge on screen. Directed by Abhishek Jaiswal and Venkat Kalyan, the movie stars Sonakshi Sinha and Sudheer Babu. It explores faith, possession, and divine power — themes deeply rooted in India’s cultural and spiritual traditions.
From Real Life to Real Energy
To make the story authentic, director Abhishek Jaiswal spent months researching real-life cases of possession. He closely observed changes in voice, breathing patterns, and body movements to capture the truth behind these experiences.
“I didn’t want the actors to act possessed; I wanted them to feel it,” Abhishek explained. “Every breath, every glance came from real energy. The audience shouldn’t just watch — they should truly feel it.”
Through this dedication, the film’s intense moments draw directly from the raw emotions and energies found in real life.
Sonakshi Sinha’s Powerful Transformation
Meanwhile, co-director Venkat Kalyan delved into the emotional and spiritual layers of the story. He introduced Sonakshi Sinha to genuine Pisachi rituals, helping her embody the role with authenticity and depth.
“Sonakshi didn’t fake any of her emotions,” Venkat said. “She learned the rituals, understood the anger and devotion behind them, and transformed completely.”
Her preparation and performance promise to bring an unforgettable energy to the screen.
A Decade of Research and Devotion
Venkat Kalyan spent over ten years developing Jatadhara. During this time, he attended the Bonalu festival in Telangana to experience what he describes as “true divine energy.”
“Bonalu showed me how devotion and destruction can exist together,” he shared. “That’s what Jatadhara captures — beauty within chaos and faith within power.”
This deep, decade-long exploration helped shape the film’s intense emotional and spiritual core.
Prerna Arora’s Vision of Cinematic Spirituality
Producer Prerna Arora believes Jatadhara is not just a film — it’s a spiritual journey meant to awaken emotion and reflection.
“Every detail, from the research to the visuals, is grounded in truth,” she said. “We wanted to create something alive with divine energy — something audiences could truly connect with.”
She also praised her team — Abhishek, Venkat, Sonakshi, and Sudheer — for turning a decade of passion into a once-in-a-lifetime cinematic experience.
A Stellar Ensemble and Grand Visuals
Adding to its depth, the film features an ensemble cast including Divya Khossla (special appearance), Shilpa Shirodkar, Indira Krishna, Ravi Prakash, Naveen Neni, Rohit Pathak, Jhansi, Rajeev Kanakala, and Subhalekha Sudhakar.
Jatadhara is produced by Umesh Kumar Bansal, Shivin Narang, Aruna Agarwal, Prerna Arora, Shilpa Singhal, and Nikhil Nanda. It is supported by Zee Music Co., with Divya Vijay as Creative Producer and Bhavini Goswami as Supervising Producer.
The Eternal Battle of Light and Darkness
Ultimately, Jatadhara stands as one of the most ambitious supernatural films of the year. With its fusion of faith, destiny, and divine energy, it promises an unforgettable cinematic journey into the eternal struggle between light and darkness.
