In recent months, ZEE5 has witnessed excellent viewership for some of its post-theatrical digital releases. Venkatesh's Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, Nithiin's Robinhood are among them. The OTT platform has also attracted its subscribers' attention through Viraatapalem: PC Meena Reporting, a suspenseful web series.
The news is that, from July 18, Bhairavam will start streaming on ZEE5.
Directed by Vijay Kanakamedala, Bhairavam stars Bellamkonda Sreenivas, Nara Rohith, and Manchu Manoj in lead roles. Aditi Shankar, Aanandhi, Divya Pillai, Jayasudha, Vennela Kishore, Ajay, Raja Ravindra, Sharath Lohitashwa and others also feature in it.
What is Bhairavam about? Gajapathi Varma (Manchu Manoj) and Varadha (Nara Rohith) have been all-weather friends despite occasional protests from people close to them. Sreenu (Bellamkonda Sreenivas) was orphaned as a child and is a staunch Gajapathi loyalist. At the same time, he endears himself to Varadha and his dutiful wife (Divya Pillai). When Endowments Minister Vedurupalli wants to grab the village land belonging to the local Varahi Goddess Temple, greed, friction and bloodshed rear their ugly heads.
