Telugu ZEE5 has officially announced the digital premiere of Vanda Devullu, an emotional family drama inspired by true events. The announcement was made on the eve of actor Vijay Antony’s birthday, with the film set to stream exclusively on Telugu ZEE5 this August. The platform is expected to reveal the official premiere date soon.
The announcement comes shortly after the successful OTT run of Parimala & Co., which received a warm response from family audiences. Starring Jayaram and Urvashi, the film gained popularity for its light-hearted humour and relatable family moments, further strengthening Telugu ZEE5’s focus on bringing meaningful family entertainment to viewers.
With Vanda Devullu, the platform is presenting a story that explores family relationships from a different emotional perspective. Inspired by real-life events, the film follows the journey of a widowed mother who has dedicated her life to raising her son and caring for her family. When she decides to remarry in her mid-forties and seek companionship, she faces opposition from relatives, villagers and social expectations that question her choice.
The emotional core of the film lies in the bond between the mother and her son. Instead of expecting his mother to continue sacrificing her own happiness, the son supports her decision to begin a new chapter in life. The story highlights themes of love, respect, understanding and second chances while addressing changing perspectives on family and society.
Beyond the story of one woman, Vanda Devullu explores issues such as motherhood, marriage, sacrifice and the expectations placed on women. These universal themes make the film relatable across generations, especially for mothers and families. Following its theatrical release, the film earned positive word of mouth, with audiences appreciating its heartfelt performances and emotional storytelling.
Speaking about the film, Llyod C Xavier, Senior Vice President – Marketing South and Business Head for Tamil & Malayalam, said that audiences today are looking for stories that entertain while also reflecting changing social realities. He noted that Vanda Devullu combines a rooted regional narrative with a progressive theme, making it emotionally engaging and widely relatable. He also said the response to Parimala & Co. reinforced ZEE5’s commitment to authentic storytelling, and Vanda Devullu continues that journey while expanding the platform’s family entertainment library across Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam markets.
After the fun-filled family entertainer Parimala & Co., Telugu ZEE5 is now set to offer viewers an emotional story that celebrates a mother’s right to happiness. Vanda Devullu will premiere exclusively on Telugu ZEE5 this August.
