The makers of Jiiva-Pa Vijay's upcoming horror thriller Aghathiyaa released the teaser glimpse of the film on Friday.
The teaser suggests that the film takes place in two time periods and the historical characters are reincarnating in the present and are faced with a similar conundrum. The glimpse doesn't reveal much about the film's plot.
Aghathiyaa also stars Arjun, Raashii Khanna, Edward Sonnenblick, Yogi Babu, VTV Ganesh, and Redin Kingsley. Ishari K Ganesh of Vels Film International and Aneesh Arjun Dev's Wam India produced Aghathiyaa. According to a press note, it is a horror-thriller film, but the makers are yet to reveal any details about its plot and characters.
Aghathiyaa is Pa Vijay's third directorial venture, after Strawberry (2015) and Aaruthra (2018). He doubled up as a writer in these two films, besides serving just as a writer in Gnabagangal (2009) and the Tamil dialogue writer for the Telugu film Rudhramadevi (2015).
