Jiiva-Priya Bhavani Shankar's Black gets OTT premiere

Jiiva and Priya Bhavani Shankar's latest film Black is now streaming on OTT platform Prime Video. Directed by debutant KG Balasubramani, the film is an official remake of the Hollywood film Coherence. Following its release on October 11, the film received positive reviews from fans and critics for its screenplay and Jiiva's performance.

Black revolves around a couple who decide to spend the night in a remote and unoccupied gated villa, to blow off steam. However, they soon observe that the occupants in the house across the street are themselves from a timeline just hours away.

Our CE review of the film read, "At its heart, Black makes the best use of the genre. It employs the complex mechanism of its sci-fi concepts to tell a human story about relatable struggles. The execution, however, wraps layers and layers of complexity and sci-fi jargon around a solid core, in a desperate attempt to complicate a simple narrative, which renders it messy."

Black, produced by Potential Studios, boasts a technical crew comprising cinematographer Gokul Benoy, music composer Sam CS, editor Philomin Raj, stunt choreographer Metro Mahesh, lyricists Madhan Karky and Chandru, and choreographer Sherif.
