Kambalapally ‘Mail’ goes to New York

The Telugu film ‘Mail’ will be screened virtually as part of New York Indian Film Festival 2021

The Telugu film Mail (Chapter 1 - Kambalapally Kathalu), which is streaming on Aha, has been selected to be a part of the New York Indian Film Festival 2021. Directed by Uday Gurrala and produced by Swapna Cinema, the film starring Priyadarshi and Harshith Malgireddy was acclaimed for its indie-spirited narration of a story set in rural Telangana. Mail explored how a hamlet gets introduced to the internet and email in 2005. As Hybath, Priyadarshi opens a gaming centre in an idyllic village and the wide-eyed college student Ravi (Harshith) tries to learn the basics of email. Narrated in a light-hearted manner, the film captures the travails of a few naive villagers as they get caught in an internet fraud.
