Ess Kay Gee Entertainment and Benchmark Storytellers have officially announced their upcoming feature film starring Pan-South sensation Anupama Parameswaran. Directed by RJ Shaan, the film will be produced by Shivin Narang, Prerna Arora, and Kiran Ballapalli in association with a leading studio. The announcement was made on the occasion of Anupama’s birthday, with the makers extending their wishes while unveiling this ambitious new project.
Conceived as an intense psychological thriller, the film marks the big-screen reunion of Anupama and Shaan following the phenomenal response to their acclaimed short film Freedom at Midnight. The collaboration, which first earned digital acclaim, is now set to make a theatrical impact. Shoot is scheduled to commence in May 2026, with the official title to be revealed soon. The makers promise a gripping narrative backed by strong storytelling and a clear creative vision.
The production house recently released Jatadhara, expanding its growing slate of content-driven cinema. National Award–winning producer Prerna Arora is known for acclaimed films such as Rustom, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, Pad Man, and Pari. Meanwhile, Anupama continues her strong pan-Indian presence with successful films like Premam, Karthikeya 2, and Rakshasudu, winning hearts across Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam cinema.
Speaking about the project, the producers shared, “We associate with films only when we believe in their strength. This film stands on solid storytelling, a clear vision from director Shaan, and a powerful performance by Anupama. Along with Prerna and Kiran as partners, we are committed to delivering meaningful cinema.”
