Released in February 2025, Thandel featured Sai Pallavi opposite Naga Chaitanya. Directed by Chandoo Mondeti, the Telugu romantic action drama was inspired by the lives of fishermen. It revolved around a fisherman who accidentally crosses into Pakistani waters. The film received a good response from audiences and reportedly collected around Rs 100 crore worldwide, making it a commercial success. Its India net collection was estimated at around Rs 54–66 crore.

Amaran turned out to be one of the biggest successes of Sai Pallavi’s career. The 2024 biographical war drama, directed by Rajkumar Periasamy, starred Sivakarthikeyan alongside the actress. Based on the life of Major Mukund Varadarajan, the film featured Sai Pallavi as his wife, Indhu Rebecca Varghese. It received a strong response from audiences and critics and emerged as a blockbuster. The film reportedly earned over Rs 330 crore worldwide, with its India net collection estimated at around Rs 220 crore.

In Gargi, Sai Pallavi played a schoolteacher who fights for justice after her father is arrested in a sexual assault case. Directed by Gautham Ramachandran, the 2022 courtroom drama received appreciation for its subject, performances and strong storytelling. Although the film earned positive reviews, it had a limited theatrical run and did not emerge as a major box-office success. Its India net collection was reportedly around Rs 4.77 crore.

Also released in 2022, Virata Parvam featured Sai Pallavi alongside Rana Daggubati. Directed by Venu Udugula, the period romantic drama was set against the backdrop of the Naxalite movement and followed a young woman who falls in love with a revolutionary. While Sai’s performance received appreciation, the film failed to translate the positive response into box-office numbers. It reportedly collected around Rs 8 crore in India and was considered a commercial failure.

However, Sai Pallavi has delivered several successful films throughout her career, including Premam, Fidaa, Middle Class Abbayi, Love Story and Shyam Singha Roy.
