The upcoming supernatural thriller Jatadhara, starring Sonakshi Sinha and Sudheer Babu, is creating a wave of excitement as its release approaches. A new behind-the-scenes insight has revealed the film’s extraordinary commitment to authenticity and cultural depth. Directed by Venkat Kalyan and Abhishek Jaiswal, Jatadhara stands apart not merely as a supernatural story but as a profound cinematic exploration of faith, ritual, and emotion.
According to recent revelations, the makers of Jatadhara conducted actual Tantric rituals and recited genuine mantras during the shooting of a key sequence to heighten the film’s spiritual realism. To ensure absolute accuracy and respect for traditional practices, the production collaborated with real Tantriks who supervised the ceremonies and guided the cast and crew through each step of the process. – Makers of Jatadhara Performed Real Tantric Rituals

Those present on set described the atmosphere during those days as deeply intense and spiritually charged. Every ritual was performed with complete reverence, ensuring that authenticity never compromised the safety or comfort of the team. The experience, they shared, was unlike any other film shoot.
Speaking about this bold creative choice, director Venkat Kalyan shared,
“We didn’t want to imitate the energy—we wanted to live it. Jatadhara isn’t about effects or spectacle; it’s about connecting to something unseen yet deeply felt. The rituals were performed not for drama, but for truth—to bring sacredness and sincerity into every frame.”
Producer Prerna Arora echoed the sentiment, adding,
“Jatadhara is more than a film—it’s a journey of faith, courage, and devotion. Every mantra and ritual was rooted in reality. The energy on set was indescribable; it truly felt like a moment where cinema met divinity.”
Co-director Abhishek Jaiswal also reflected on their approach, saying,
“Portraying the mystical often tempts filmmakers to rely on CGI, but we wanted to capture the raw pulse of genuine ritualistic power. Those moments on set carried an energy that cannot be replicated, and we’re confident audiences will feel that same vibration when they watch it.”
