Mythri Movie Makers and star director Prashanth Neel have launched a new-age horror project helmed by debutant Kirtan Nadagouda, an associate from Neel’s filmmaking team.
The film is designed as a sharp, content-forward thriller set around a medical college and a fear-stricken village, exploring how scientific anomalies and local superstitions collide.
This move marks a strategic diversification for both Mythri and Neel, who are known for large-scale tentpole productions; by supporting young talent and compact storytelling, they are signalling a broader shift toward mid-budget genre cinema.
The cast features rising actors, giving the film a fresh energy while aligning with the industry’s growing interest in horror as a commercially dependable segment.
