Telugu

film

Vivaha Bhojanambu

is a family entertainer to watch out for.

High on comedy with a dash of family chaos, the film narrates the love story of Mahesh, a miser from a middle-class household and Ramya who hails from a rich joint family. Taking advantage of the pandemic situation, Mahesh convinces the families to get them married in the presence of close relatives. Little did he know that a nationwide lockdown would thwart his attempts for a cost-effective marriage. Some 14-odd members of the extended family living with the newlywed couple for 21 days straight — this isn’t something Mahesh had bargained for. What ensues is a series of funny situations, inspired by true events that promise to make you laugh till your sides hurt.

Speaking about the film, director Ram Abbaraju says, “Vivaha Bhojanambu is all about capturing the essence of what we all have gone through in the pandemic, mixed with a dash of comedy. Post a wedding, being stuck with the entire family for 21 days is relatable and will definitely take the audience on a roller-coaster ride of laughter.”

Bringing this “perfect family entertainer” to the audience, Ashish Golwalkar, Head — Content, SET and Digital Business says, “We are delighted to launch our first Telugu film, Vivaha Bhojanambu for our audience across regions. The film rides high on comedy and brings out a fresh, relatable story around the lockdown situation we all have been in.
