Set in the 1980s, in the remote and fear-stricken village of Viraatapalem, a chilling curse silences celebrations, every bride dies mysteriously on her wedding day. No marriage has taken place for over a decade. The village is frozen in fear; its population reduced to only the very young and the very old. When a bold police constable (Abhignya Vuthaluru) is posted to the town, she refuses to accept the curse as truth. Teaming up with a reformed convict, she begins to pull at the threads of a mystery the village would rather keep buried. One woman: One village: A thousand secrets. And in Viraatapalem, some of those secrets are dying to stay hidden.<\/span><\/p>\n

ZEE5 Telugu Business Head – Anuradha Gudur<\/span> said, \u201cAt ZEE5, we aim to showcase stories that reflect the realities, fears, and resilience of everyday people. \u2018Viraatapalem: PC Meenu Reporting\u2019 is an atmospheric and emotionally compelling story that blends suspense with social commentary. Through the lens of a remote village, the show explores how fear can take control of an entire community, and how courage can disrupt decades of silence.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Director Krishna Poluru<\/span> shared, \u201cAfter Recce, I\u2019m thrilled to collaborate with ZEE5 once again. \u2018Viraatapalem: PC Meena Reporting\u2019 is set in a village where a chilling curse has stopped weddings for over a decade, every bride dies mysteriously on her wedding day. That belief has turned into fear, and fear into silence. This series is about breaking that silence. We\u2019ve built a world that feels real, eerie, and emotionally grounded, where one woman dares to ask the question, everyone is afraid of.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Producer Sriram, South Indian Screens<\/span> shared: “After the success of Recce, it feels great to join hands with ZEE5 once again for ‘Viraatapalem: PC Meena Reporting’. This story stood out to me right from the beginning; it’s haunting, layered, and deeply rooted in the kind of fears many communities quietly carry. As someone who has spent years creating stories for television and playing characters myself, this project gave me a chance to explore something more atmospheric and grounded. I’m proud of the world we’ve built with this series: mysterious, tense, and emotionally real, and I can’t wait for audiences to experience it.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Abhignya Vuthaluru<\/span> said, \u201cBeing part of this project was intense and fulfilling. The role demanded sensitivity, strength, and vulnerability especially in a world that dismisses facts in favour of fear. Shooting in the village, surrounded by real locations and real people, gave the entire experience a rawness, audiences I am sure will like it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

With superstition, suspense, and a powerful message at its core, \u2018Viraatapalem: PC Meena Reporting\u2019 is not just a Supernatural Thriller, it\u2019s a battle between fear and truth, unfolding in the most unexpected of places.<\/span><\/p>\n
