S Krishna, longtime associate of blockbuster filmmaker Anil Ravipudi, turns director with the forthcoming venture HIGH, while also working as writer, actor, and co-producer.
The film is bankrolled by Harish Peddi, S Krishna, and Sekhar Divvela under the banners Imagespark Entertainment and Myra Creations.
With production nearing completion, the makers unveiled the theatrical teaser, launched digitally by hero Venkatesh.
The teaser showcases four parallel stories, each exploring a different interpretation of high- through pain, escape, identity, and risk.
A woman hires a contract killer to end her suffering, a man spirals into addiction in pursuit of money and liquor, a young woman fights to reclaim her dignity, while her lover chases the adrenaline of life-threatening bets.
S Krishna adopts an intense narrative approach, steering an emotionally dense drama powered by gripping performances from Ananya Sharma, S Krishna, Pallavi Dora, Krishna Kamal, Sai Krishna, and Bulliraju.
Cinematographers Mallu Nayak and Suneel Reddy shape the film’s gritty visual tone, while Vikasa Badisa’s music adds a vivacious undercurrent to every moment.
The teaser makes it clear that HIGH is not a regular ride. The release date will be announced soon.
