Trivia

The film's director, S S Paitnaik, is also known for directing the 2019 horror-comedy 'Gaddalakonda Ganesh'.
The movie was shot primarily in and around Hyderabad, including at real hostel locations to create an authentic atmosphere.
It blends three distinct genres—horror, action, and comedy—a mix not commonly seen in recent Telugu cinema.
The film's title, 'Padmashri', refers to the character Dr. Padmashree, whose tragic backstory drives the supernatural plot.
Despite its 2022 release, the movie had a very limited theatrical run and gained more attention through digital platforms.
The plot involving a group of boys in a haunted hostel draws some inspiration from classic Indian horror films set in educational institutions.
The soundtrack was composed by Achu Rajamani, who is known for his work in Telugu and Tamil films.
