This time, she has taken on a new role—that of a producer. On the auspicious occasion of Ugadi, the actress unveiled the teaser of Subham, her debut production under the banner of Tralala Moving Pictures. The film, written by Vasanth Mariganti and directed by Praveen Kandregula, falls under the horror-comedy genre, which is currently enjoying immense popularity among Indian audiences.

The teaser effectively hints at a gripping storyline while ensuring enough laughter to keep audiences engaged.
