After getting a theatrical release this May, the makers of Shraddha Srinath's dystopian thriller Kaliyugam will make its OTT debut on Sun NXT from July 11.
The film opened to mixed reviews upon its release on May 14. An excerpt from the CE review of the film reads, "Kishore and Shraddha Srinath’s earnest and committed performances add to the world-building and immerse us completely into this decrepit world. What lacks in terms of budget and production design is circumvented with clever writing choices along with Kishore and Shraddha’s performances. However, the performance of the primary antagonist, on which the impact of a large chunk of the story hinges, leaves a lot to be desired."
Set in a post-apocalyptic world, the film explores the psychological impact of surviving without a moral core.
The rest of Kaliyugam's ensemble cast includes Iniyan Subramani, Asmal, Hari and Mithun.
Kaliyugam is written and directed by Pramodh Sundar in his debut directorial venture, with dialogues by Karthik Gunasekaran, Aathreya & Karkavi. K Ramcharan handles the cinematography for the film, Nimz handles the editing, and M Shakthi Venkatraj is the art director, with Don Vincent as the music composer and sound designer. Ramcharan also produces the film with KS Ramakrishna. The production houses behind the film are RK International and Prime Cinemas.
