Storyline
Bhairavam is an official remake of the Tamil superhit film Garudan, which was widely acclaimed for its gripping narrative. The story revolves around themes of justice, revenge, and redemption, set against the backdrop of societal conflict and moral dilemmas.
Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas plays the protagonist, Seenu, a fiery individual with a strong sense of justice.

The narrative also explores the complex dynamics between Seenu and other pivotal characters, including Varada (played by Nara Rohit) and Gajapathi (played by Manchu Manoj Kumar), whose power struggles and moral conflicts add depth to the storyline.
