HYDERABAD: The makers of the upcoming Telugu film Sahaa: Life of Sanju have released the official promotional cuts and trailer footage for the project, offering audiences a glimpse into an emotionally charged coming-of-age romance. Directed by Nishanth Doti and produced under the Sumaira Studios banner, the film features Shiva Kumar Kasaram alongside debutante Swetha Lakshman in the lead roles.
The trailer outlines the journey of Sanju (played by Shiva Kumar Kasaram), an everyday youth striving to build a simple life filled with love, personal ambitions, and family happiness. The narrative takes a dramatic shift when he crosses paths with Sahaa (Swetha Lakshman), turning his life into an emotional rollercoaster marked by romantic highs, personal heartbreaks, and unforeseen setbacks. Rather than leaning on over-the-top action tropes, the trailer emphasizes realistic storytelling, showcasing Sanju’s resilience as he fights for his relationships and personal growth.
Visually, the film relies on a grounded atmosphere captured by cinematographer Karunakar Kotteti, with soft natural light and everyday settings like public transport journeys framing the leads’ chemistry. The mood of the trailer is supported by a melodic background score composed by Shekar Chandra, whose soulful tracks, including the recently released single Kaalanne Thiragesi, have already begun gaining traction on music platforms. Editing by Dinesh Peddi keeps the focus on performance-driven narrative beats.
Sahaa: Life of Sanju is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on September 4, 2026. By positioning itself as a relatable, character-driven drama, the film aims to connect with youth audiences looking for clean emotional entertainment at the box office.
