They went on to add “The new-age film was slated for release on February 6, but now the makers are spending sleepless nights and are even unable to promote the film properly without an official title, which is unfortunate.

They shared that they spent already Rs 6crs and lamented “The film is neither political in nature nor does it comment against any political party or person. It is a simple story of a father and son. The father, played by Rajeev Kanakala, runs a Nawab Café in the Old City and serves hot tea, while the son, played by Shiva Kandukuri, has different ambitions. Their ideological clash and eventual resolution form the core of the film. Hence, the title is justified,”

They made startling revelations saying “They claim they are facing pressure from higher officials in Mumbai and New Delhi insisting on removing the title, without revealing any further details,

Hyderabad City Police Commissioner V C Sajjanar, who praised the film while attending an event said that tea has become an integral part of everyone’s life. “Police work under a lot of stress and pressure every day, and chai gives them some relief,” he said at the event. Niloufer Café owner Anumula Babu Rao also lauded the team, saying, “I rose to fame and fortune by selling chai, and I am happy that someone is making a film around it.”

Shiva Kandukuri shared “It is true that censor officials have raised objections about the title, and we are looking for alternatives. We are keeping our fingers crossed to release the film as scheduled.
