Sundar Poonam
After the superhit success of its Prime Video Original series, Daldal, starring Bhumi Pednekkar, Aditya Rawal and Samara Tijori, which trended No. 1 in India, Abundantia Entertainment released the action-drama film, Subedaar, directed by Suresh Triveni with Anil Kapoor, Radhikka Madan, Mona Singh, Saurabh Shukla and Faisal Malik. Within just 3 days of its release, Subedaar went on to smash all records to become the most-watched Indian Original movie on Prime Video and trended in as many as 31 countries worldwide, making it one of the biggest blockbusters on Indian streaming.
Abundantia announced its latest project - Sundar Poonam, a gripping romantic thriller, inspired by true incidents. The film stars powerhouse performer Sanya Malhotra and brings together Sanya and Abundantia once again after Shakuntala Devi. Hailed as one of the finest actors of her generation after delivering the superhits Mrs., Kathal and Paglait, Sundar Poonam will see Sanya essay a role that her fans have never seen before!
Sundar Poonam also features current hot-favourite Aditya Rawal, who has recently become the talk of the town for his two distinct outings as Sajid in Daldal and the ultra-bad Prince in Subedaar. Adding to this excitement, Aditya Seal joins the cast.
Sundar Poonam also marks a new creative collaboration for Abundantia with one of the creative industry's most exciting young directors, Pulkit, who is known for titles like Bhakshak starring Bhumi Pednekkar, Maalik starring Rajkummar Rao and the upcoming film Kartavya starring Saif Ali Khan. Directed by Pulkit and written by Jyotsana Nath and Pulkit, Sundar Poonam brings together a strong creative vision, a layered storyline that travels from the stunning backdrops of snow-capped Kashmir to the stark, burning deserts of Rajasthan. The film is produced by Kumar Taurani and Vikram Malhotra and is a Tips Films Limited and Abundantia Entertainment Production.
Speaking of the project, Sanya Malhotra stated, "Sundar Poonam is an incredibly exciting film for me as it brings me face-to-face with one of the most challenging roles I've taken on so far. It pushes me into an unexplored space as an actor. The character is layered, intense, and emotionally demanding, which instantly drew me in. Collaborating with Vikram and Abundantia Entertainment has always been incredibly fulfilling, and after Shakuntala Devi, I'm excited to begin a new chapter with them and Prime Video. Pulkit is an exceptionally talented director, and his sensitivity towards storytelling adds so much depth to the narrative. I'm looking forward to starting this journey and sharing a new side of myself with the audience."
Speaking about the project, Vikram Malhotra, Founder & CEO, Abundantia Entertainment, said: "Our partnership with Prime Video has consistently enabled us to tell stories that are distinctive, disruptive, and resonate with a wide audience. With Sundar Poonam, we are further strengthening this partnership by bringing a gripping romantic thriller that features Sanya Malhotra, one of my favourite actors, in a never-before-seen avatar. Inspired by chilling true events, the story is both compelling and entertaining, and I am excited to collaborate with Pulkit, whose work I have deeply admired, to bring this brilliant story to life."
With Sundar Poonam, Abundantia Entertainment continues to build a strong slate of premium, genre-breaking content, further cementing its position as a leading content studio.
