Tamil cinema’s recent critically acclaimed thriller DNA is all set to hit the Telugu screens with the title My Baby on July 11. The film is being presented to Telugu audiences by well-known producer Suresh Kondeti under S.K. Pictures, who is known for bringing high-quality and content-driven films like Premiste, Journey, Shopping Mall, and Pizza to the Telugu audience. This marks his 16th film as a producer, while he has also distributed over 85 films in the past.
Directed by Nelson Venkatesan, My Baby features Atharvaa Murali and Nimisha Sajayan in the lead roles and has been widely appreciated in Tamil for its gripping narrative and socially relevant subject. The film touches on the disturbing theme of infants being abducted from hospitals and sold elsewhere—an issue that, while occasionally highlighted in the news, has been part of society's dark underbelly for decades.
With a combination of crime thriller and emotional drama, the film explores how a personal tragedy in the life of a software architect in 2014 becomes the center of a larger conspiracy. Atharvaa delivers an intense performance as the emotionally driven protagonist trying to unravel the mystery surrounding his child. Nimisha Sajayan, known for her powerful roles in Malayalam cinema, brings depth and sensitivity to her role.
The Telugu version retains the core essence of the original and has been carefully localized to resonate with the Telugu audience. The concept of child safety, hospital corruption, and the psychological trauma faced by parents is powerfully conveyed, making My Baby not just a thriller but a thought-provoking cinematic experience.
With only five days to go, the buzz around the film is growing, especially among viewers who enjoy realistic stories with emotional weight. Backed by a proven production team and presented by a seasoned producer like Suresh Kondeti, My Baby is expected to strike a chord with Telugu viewers when it releases in theatres on July 11.
