Naga Chaitanya after Majili, Love Story, Bangarraju looked like he is on a path of creating a good box office image for himself like Akkineni fans always wished for. But his next films like Custody, Thank You failed big time. Now, he has set all his hopes on Thandel. The actor has been working on his film for two years, almost. 

The makers did not start promotions as fans anticipated they would. Geeta Arts have a reputation to start promoting their films, perfectly and bring audiences to theatres. But they did not begin Thandel promotions just yet in the full swing that fans have hoped for. 

While they are all excited about this movie as it brings together Sai Pallavi and Chaitanya together as onscreen jodi again, they are disappointed with the kind of lacklustre promotions, the makers have been doing. While the makers did release two singles, they still did not start full fledged promotions. 

With just two weeks prior to release, Akkineni fans wanted the social media, satellite and poster promotions to be as big and unique as Sankrantiki Vasthunnam. The makers of SV, have been able to generate such a huge interest, movie ended up collecting double than anticipation for Sankranti. 

Already, February is regarded as dead season for films. It is difficult for films to reach their full potential. There are many examples in past that prove the fact that films suffer with occupancies during the month in Telugu States. 

After a huge season of Sankranti, it requires a lot of effort in promotions to bring family audiences to theatres, who are the major target for Akkineni heroes. Naga Chaitanya fans have been hoping for this movie to be his 100 crores grosser as producer Bunny Vasu, hoped it to be in press announcement of the release date. 

Chandoo Mondeti, the director, almost reformed Chaitanya's image with Premam and the combination misfired with Savyasachi. Naga Chaitanya and the director need Thandel to be a huge blockbuster and even producers, as the budget is said to have crossed initial expectations. 

So, fans are worried and wondering if ever Thandel makers will start promotions at a full swing ever. They already, a huge opportunity is missed by not releasing movie for Sankranti giving way to Game Changer. 

Well, now they just want teasers, trailer, and interactions about the movie keeping it in news regularly. Unfortunately, that is not the case and they are deeply worried that buzz for the film won't go if that is the case. Only production house can answer to their queries, now, with good amount of promotions.
