After a short break from Tamil films, actor Kathir is back with a new film, ‘Aasai,’ which is replete with emotions and zero conflicts. Kathir made his acting debut with the Malayalam film 'Meesha'.
He then went on to become an OTT sensation with season two of 'Suzhal'.
'Aasai' stars Divya Bharathi and Kathir, directed by Shiv Mohaa, best known for 'Zero'. The makers dropped an update on the release date and poster of 'Aasai.'
'Aasai' release date announced
The producers have announced the release date for 'Aasai' as March 6, along with the first poster. The poster features a lifelike setting with Kathir featuring broken glasses and Divya Bharathi curiously leaning in with a kind of fear/respect written across her face.
The red background is accompanied with the tagline “A love story with a mystery."
About 'Aasai'
Shiv Mohaa announced that the genre of the film would be a romance thriller. 'Aasai' was shot in Chennai over a duration of 25 days, making the story short and crisp. The film has two songs, both by music director Revaa, and will use music as a supporting element rather than a focus. The name of the film,'Aasai', represents the central theme of the film: desire and how desires can bring one into a series of complicated situations if left unchecked.
On the technical side, 'Aasai' promises a great team with Babu Kumar IE’s cinematography likely adding to the mood, along with R Sudharsan’s editing and S Rajamohan’s art direction. Kathir is reported to be in a subtle mode for his performance, and Divya Bharathi is said to have a much more intense role than she has had before.
