Bheema Gani Sudhakar Goud, acclaimed for meaningful children's films such as Aditya, Vicky's Dream, and Dr. Gautam, has once again brought a thought-provoking story to the forefront with his latest short film, Abhinav (Chased Padmavyuha).

The cast includes Sammata Gandhi, Satya Erra, Master Gagan, Geetha Govind, Abhinav, Charan, and Baby Akshara in pivotal roles.
At a press conference held at the Hyderabad Film Chamber, Sudhakar Goud shared his vision for the film. He emphasized the importance of nurturing patriotism in children from an early age. Drawing comparisons to international practices of teaching children about national defense, he underlined the need for similar efforts in India.
