Keerthy Suresh's 'Uppu Kappurambu' OTT debut date out: When and where to stream Telugu comedy drama
Acclaimed actress Keerthy Suresh is gearing up for the release of her latest Telugu film, Uppu Kappurambu, which is all set to make its digital debut. The film will bypass theatrical release and premiere directly on Amazon Prime Video. The makers officially confirmed on Monday that the film, a satirical coming-of-age drama, will start streaming on July 4 across India and more than 240 countries and regions worldwide.
Directed by Ani IV Sasi, the film boasts a vibrant ensemble cast including Keerthy Suresh, Suhas, Babu Mohan, Shatru, and Talluri Rameshwari, all of whom play pivotal roles. The production is helmed by Radhika Lavu under the banner of Ellanar Films Pvt. Ltd. Though the film has been shot originally in Telugu, it will also be accessible to wider audiences through dubbed versions in Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada on the streaming platform.
Set in the fictional hamlet of Chitti Jayapuram, Uppu Kappurambu humorously explores a bizarre problem—the village's struggle with a growing crisis related to burial space. Despite addressing a pressing social issue, the film is layered with eccentric characters, sharp wit, and comic relief, creating a narrative that balances entertainment with reflection.
Filmmaker Ani IV Sasi shared insights into the inspiration behind the story, explaining that the plot is rooted in a world he had long envisioned bringing to life on screen. He revealed that the story is set during the 1990s and offers an authentic glimpse into rural life of the time. According to Sasi, the film cleverly employs satire to shed light on how common people confront extraordinary obstacles with limited resources and unwavering resilience. He also noted that the movie is a heartfelt effort to intertwine meaningful storytelling with humor, realized through the dedication of an exceptional cast and crew.
Nikhil Madhok, Director and Head of Originals at Prime Video India, described the film as a unique blend of thought-provoking storytelling and eccentric charm. He emphasized that Uppu Kappurambu captures the spirit of village life while bringing attention to an unconventional subject through a lighthearted lens.
