What happens

Dhamaka (transl. Blast) is a 2022 Indian Telugu-language action comedy film directed by Trinadha Rao Nakkina, written by Prasanna Kumar Bezawada, and produced by People Media Factory and Abhishek Agarwal Arts. It stars Ravi Teja, Sreeleela, Jayaram, Chirag Jani, Sachin Khedekar, Tanikella Bharani and Rao Ramesh. The soundtrack and musical score was composed by Bheems Ceciroleo, while cinematography and editing were handled by Karthik Gattamneni and Prawin Pudi. Principal photography commenced in October 2021 and ended in September 2022, which took place in Hyderabad and Spain. Dhamaka was released on 23 December 2022, during the Christmas weekend, and received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics with praise for its cast performances (particularly Ravi Teja), humor and music, but criticized its pace, script and plot. The film grossed over ₹110 crore worldwide, making it one of the highest-grossing Telugu films of 2022 as well as the highest-grossing film of Ravi Teja's career. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
