On Tuesday, the makers of Niram, the upcoming film starring Mugen Rao, Preethi Asrani and Tanya Hope in lead roles, announced the film's release date. The film is directed by Krishna Balaram.

Inspired by real-life events, Niram also features Nitin Sathyaa, Surekha Vani, Suresh Chakravarthi, Sreejith Ravi, Thirunavukarasu, and Gajaraj in pivotal roles. The film is all set to open in theatres on November 27.

The recently released trailer showed Mugen Rao, the protagonist, who goes hunting for clues behind the mysterious disappearance of women. Preethi Asrani, who plays the female lead, seems to be portraying a medical student who also goes missing, with her father pleading police officers to find her. However, we understand from the two-minute-long glimpse that she is a formidable person and puts on a tough face in front of the kidnapper. Nitin Sathyaa looks to be playing the antagonist in the film. Tanya Hope also plays a key role.

In an earlier interview with Cinema Express, director Krishna Balaram described Niram as a medical crime thriller. He said, "Niram is about the mercurial nature of humans, which is fused with a thriller that unravels in a medical college. So I have packaged the film with commercial aspects, not the kind of commercial people usually mean. The film discusses very commonplace matters like betrayal and moral greyness."

The technical team of the film comprises cinematographer Santanio Terzio, editor Sabu Joseph, and art director Dhamodharan. It is backed by KSquare Cinemas and co-produced by P Rajesh. The film's release date schedules it a week after the release of Dhanush's Om and Keerthy Suresh's Sathyavan Savithiri.
