Makers have been promoted the film as highly matured and violent. They even suggested sensitive audience not to watch it. Its promotional material is full of bloodbath and created an impact.
True to its theme of ‘What you call crime, they call it survival,’ the trailer explores a family that is ready to go to any length to do a crime for their survival. It has heads chopping, hanging them over a pole, slicing with blades while blood dripping out, extreme cuss words which sound highly disturbing. The show features - Rishi, Shelly, Deviyani and Jaffer in intense roles,” says the director.
Shaitan is made as a hard hitting and gur wrenching intense drama. It involves violence induced family, police and politics which are a perfect combination to generate intriguing content. The show depicts the socio-political events that led to the rise and downfall of a criminal Bali and his family.
The trailer gives a hint about unprecedented violence and bold content that is very disturbing for the first time in a Telugu web series. Shaitan is written and directed by Mahi V Raghav. Shaitan streams on Disney + Hotstar from June 15, 2023.
