About the filmDirected by Vijay Kanakamedala, 'Bhairavam' is a story set in a rural backdrop, focusing on the lives of three childhood friends named, Seenu, Varadha, and Gajapathi whose bond is tested by greed, power struggles, and political intrigue in their village of Devipuram. The film explores themes of friendship, betrayal, and justice, wrapped in intense action and emotional drama. The film also includes a rustic charm with raw emotions, rural politics and personal relationships.

The film stars Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas, Manchu Manoj, and Nara Rohith in lead roles, supported by a strong ensemble cast including Jayasudha and other seasoned actors. The performances, especially by the three leads, have been appreciated for their intensity.

Etimes review reads, "Director Vijay Kanakamedala blends rustic action, emotional drama, and mystic symbolism in 'Bhairavam' with varying success. While the film treads familiar ground, it is the performances and emotional core that keep it afloat. Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas sheds his usual larger-than-life image to deliver a performance that is restrained, honest, and emotionally rooted. Nara Rohith brings calm control to his role, portraying Varadha with understated strength. The true comeback, however, belongs to Manchu Manoj. Returning to the screen after a hiatus, he owns the role with a fiery presence. His deep baritone and brooding intensity add a sharp edge to the proceedings."
