A new horror story, ‘Immortal,’ is taking shape, promising a mix of romance, mystery and supernatural elements. The recently released trailer offers a glimpse into a strange situation that slowly turns disturbing, while keeping its central mystery under wraps. Directed by Mariyappan Chinna, the Tamil horror thriller stars G V Prakash Kumar and Kayadu Lohar in the lead roles and is now heading toward its theatrical release.
What is ‘Immortal’ about? G V Prakash falls for Kayadu Lohar in a mysterious flat
The Immortal trailer, released by actor-producer Dhanush, introduces G V Prakash’s character Mahi as a young man searching for a room on a sharing basis. His search leads him to Sindhu, played by Kayadu Lohar, who tells him she lives alone and is looking for a roommate. Mahi quickly moves in and soon develops feelings for her, drawn in by her beauty and wealthy lifestyle as he begins dreaming of building a life with her. But things turn sinister as strange occurrences start happening in the flat, and Sindhu appears to know far more about them than she initially lets on.
‘Immortal’ trailer promises horror, mystery and an unexpected twist
The trailer opens on a different note, showing a tribal couple in a foreign location preparing to welcome their child, before shifting to Mahi’s story in India. The change in setting adds to the film’s sense of mystery. As Mahi gets deeper into his relationship with Sindhu, his life begins to change in disturbing ways. The trailer hints that the flat could be hiding a dangerous secret, while Sindhu’s calm demeanour only raises more questions. Sharing the trailer on X, Dhanush wrote, “Here is #immortal trailer … best of luck @gvprakash.” The film has already generated buzz following the release of its chilling teaser last year.
‘Immortal’ release date, cast and crew
‘Immortal’ is scheduled to hit theatres on September 4, 2026, after receiving a clean U certificate from the Censor Board. Filming wrapped in May, though the makers had originally planned an earlier release. Alongside G V Prakash and Kayadu Lohar, the cast includes TM Karthik, Kumar Natarajan, Lollu Sabha Maaran, Aaditya Kathir, Arshu Maharjan, Pema Tsamchoe and Sunita Shrestha. The film features cinematography by Arun Radhakrishnan and music by Sam CS, with editing by San Lokesh and art direction by Siva Sankar. Blending romance and horror, Immortal is now set to bring its mysterious story to theatres.
