Trisha Krishnan, Radikaa Sarathkumar and Aparna Balamurali have joined an untitled women-led Tamil psychological horror film. The London-shot project marks Raja Krishna Menon’s Tamil debut and Panorama Studios’ entry into Tamil film production.

Trisha Krishnan, Radikaa Sarathkumar and Aparna Balamurali are joining forces for an untitled Tamil psychological horror film that has begun production in London. The project brings together three acclaimed performers from different generations for a story built entirely around women.

The unusual casting combination has already increased curiosity surrounding the film. Trisha has established herself as one of South Indian cinema’s leading stars, while Radikaa brings decades of experience across films and television. Aparna, known for taking on performance-driven roles, completes the central ensemble.

Although specific details about their characters are being kept under wraps, the film is expected to explore psychological tension, fear, mystery and complex human relationships. The makers appear to be developing an atmospheric thriller rather than a conventional supernatural production driven only by familiar horror devices.

With filming underway in London, the city’s distinctive architecture, changing weather and historic locations could become important elements in the movie’s visual identity. However, the makers have not yet disclosed whether the entire narrative is set in the British capital or if additional schedules will be conducted elsewhere.

The project marks filmmaker Raja Krishna Menon’s first Tamil-language directorial venture. He is widely recognised for Hindi films such as Airlift, Chef and Pippa, each of which explored a different genre and storytelling style.

This film also represents Menon’s first attempt at psychological horror and his first story focused completely on female characters. The director described the production as an important new chapter in his creative journey and expressed enthusiasm about collaborating with Trisha, Radikaa, Aparna and the wider technical team.

Menon’s entry into Tamil cinema is likely to attract attention because of the grounded dramatic approach seen in his earlier films. Psychological horror depends heavily on mood, character behaviour, uncertainty and emotional conflict, making the performances of the three central actors particularly significant.

The director’s experience with large-scale drama and intimate character moments could give the film a distinctive tone. Rather than depending entirely on sudden scares, the narrative is expected to build suspense through atmosphere and the evolving relationships among its principal characters.

The untitled film is being presented by Panorama Studios in association with Locomotive Global. It is Panorama Studios’ first production in Tamil cinema, signalling the company’s expansion into the South Indian entertainment market.

Kumar Mangat Pathak, Abhishek Pathak, Sunder Aaron, Vikas Sharma and Amit Dalmia are producing the project. Rajesh Menon and George Cameron have joined as co-producers, while Abhinav Mehrotra is serving as the creative producer.

The combination of an established production company, an international filming location and three prominent female stars suggests that the project is being developed on an ambitious scale. Its women-centred narrative also distinguishes it from many mainstream horror films that traditionally place a male character at the centre of the conflict.

The production team has not yet revealed the remaining cast members, technical crew or the planned duration of the London schedule. More announcements are expected as filming progresses.

The makers have not announced the film’s title, release date or detailed plot. Information about its music composer, cinematographer and streaming or theatrical plans also remains unavailable.

Despite these unanswered questions, the collaboration between Trisha, Radikaa Sarathkumar, Aparna Balamurali and Raja Krishna Menon has given the project a strong early identity. The presence of three accomplished actors could allow the story to examine fear and emotional trauma from contrasting generational perspectives.

Further production updates, character posters and title details are likely to provide a clearer picture of the film’s central mystery. For now, its women-led cast, psychological-horror format and London setting make it one of the more intriguing upcoming projects in Tamil cinema.
