Dies Irae: Bramayugam makers announce title of horror film with Pranav Mohanlal
Night Shift Studios, the production house behind the Mammootty-starrer Malayalam film 'Bramayugam', has officially announced the title of its second feature film on Instagram. The horror film is titled 'Dies Irae', Latin for 'The Day of Wrath'. The film stars Pranav Mohanlal and is directed by Rahul Sadasivan, who previously directed the blockbuster horror film 'Bramayugam'. Speaking about the new project, producer Chakravarthy Ramachandra said, 'With 'Bramayugam', we showed what Indian horror films can achieve. Dies Irae is the next step, and we believe Pranav Mohanlal will make a strong mark in this genre.'advertisementThe phrase 'Dies Irae' originally comes from a 13th-century Latin hymn used in the Roman Catholic Church. It means the final judgment when souls are judged and sent to heaven or hell. Over time, the phrase came to symbolise fear, doom, and the unknown - making it a fitting title for a horror film. Director Rahul Sadasivan shared that 'Dies Irae' will be very different from his earlier work. 'This film explores new emotions and connects with the younger generation. It has a different style and mood but stays true to the horror-thriller space,' he explained. 'Dies Irae' aims to take Indian horror films to a new level. Filming has been completed, and the movie is currently under post-production. The film is expected to hit the theatres later this year.
