The Telugu supernatural thriller Shambhala has surprised OTT audiences by arriving earlier than expected on the digital platform Aha.

Shambhala stars Aadi Sai Kumar in the lead role. The film is considered a very important milestone in his career. After waiting for a strong hit for many years, Aadi finally got massive success with this movie. Released in theatres during the Christmas season, the film exceeded expectations and earned more than ₹25 crore at the box office, which is a big achievement for a content-driven, small-budget film.
The story is set in a village named Shambhala during the 1980s. The plot takes an interesting turn when a mysterious meteor falls from the sky and changes the peaceful life of the villagers. Soon after, strange incidents and shocking murders begin to happen. The movie shows a gripping conflict between science and blind beliefs. Aadi plays the role of Vikram and received praise for his intense performance.
The film is directed by Yugandhar Muni and also features Archana Iyer and Swasika in key roles. On OTT, Shambhala is first available only for Aha Gold subscribers on January 21. Regular subscribers can start watching it from January 22. Trade experts believe the film will perform well on OTT too as thriller and mystery genres are popular among digital viewers.
