Telugu OTT platform aha has announced the film Bhamakalapam, which will be the Telugu OTT debut of Priyamani. If The Family Man series was an action thriller in the background of a family, Bhamakalapam has been captioned by its makers as 'a delicious home-cooked thriller'.
The film is directed by Abhimanyu Tadimeti while Dear Comrade-fame filmmaker Bharat Kamma will be the showrunner. Justin Prabhakaran is the music director. Sudheer Edara and Bogavalli Bapineedu have bankrolled the project under SVCC Digital. Cinematographer Deepak Kumar has cranked the camera while Viplav is the editor.

Aha has released the first-look poster of the film. In it, Priyamani is shown in a homemaker avatar, a word we use advisedly. For, a la Goddess Durga, the Priyamani character is shown with multiple hands, with each holding a household thing. She's simultaneously holding a plastic basket of vegetables, a knife, a plate of what looks like a biryani, a broom, an egg and a pooja-room bell while peeping into something as if she's holding binoculars in her hand.
The poster shows her in the backdrop of a typical Indian kitchen. The film, it can be guessed, will be about the life of a homemaker. But what shades she is going to be painted in, and what is her story is something to be known when the film begins to stream. The platform has not revealed any detail about that, though.
