Prime Video sets premiere date for Pushkar-Gayatri's series 'Vadhandhi: The Fable of Velonie'

Tamil series Vadhandhi - The Fable of Velonie, backed by Pushkar and Gayatri, will be available for streaming on Prime Video from December 2.

Vadhandhi, which means rumours, is created, written and directed by Andrew Louis. It also marks the second project of Pushkar and Gayatri with the OTT platform following the critically acclaimed Suzhal : The Vortex, which premiered in June.

The upcoming crime thriller revolves around Velonie, played by debutante Sanjana, whose story is riddled with rumours.

A troubled but determined cop (S J Suryah) finds himself caught in the web of lies but is hell bent on finding the truth.

Aparna Purohit, Head of India Originals, Prime Video, said the team is thrilled to bring to them Vadhandhi, another authentic and diverse story.

Pushkar and Gayatri, who are credited as creative producers on the series under their banner Wallwatcher Films, said the aim with Vadhandhi is to completely capture the audiences' imagination and question societal biases.

Besides Tamil, Vadhandhi will be available in Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada for Prime members in more than 240 countries and territories.

The show also stars Laila, M Nasser, Vivek Prasanna, Kumaran, and Smruthi Venkat in pivotal roles.
