Kolaiyuthir Kaalam

Story:

“Kolaiyuthir Kaalam” is a 2019 Indian Tamil-language thriller slasher film directed by Chakri Toleti and produced by V. Mathiyalagan. It is a remake of the English-language movie “Hush,” where a deaf and mute girl must fight for her life when a killer appears at her door. The film stars Nayanthara, Bhumika Chawla, Pratap K. Pothen, Rohini Hattangadi, and began production in November 2016. The story follows Shruthi, a deaf and mute girl adopted by a UK millionaire, who faces a home invasion after her adopted mother’s death. The plot involves a scheme to seize Shruthi’s assets, leading to a confrontation with a masked man. The film was released on 9 August 2019, but it was considered a disaster at the box office. Chakri Toleti later remade the film in Hindi as “Khamoshi” (2019), which released before the Tamil version due to delays. The movie concludes with suspense, leaving unanswered questions about Shruthi’s fate and the identity of the masked man.
