DAIJI – THE BEGINNING Teaser Sets the Stage for a Chilling Psychological Horror

The teaser for DAIJI - THE BEGINNING has officially been unveiled, offering audiences a spine-chilling glimpse into what promises to be a gripping psychological horror thriller from Kannada cinema. Directed by Akash Srivatsa, the film stars veteran actor Dr. Ramesh Aravind in his milestone 106th movie, alongside Radhika Narayan and Diganth Manchale in pivotal roles. The film is inspired by a real-life incident that reportedly happened to its producer, Ravi Kashyap, adding a layer of eerie authenticity to the story.

 

At its heart, the film follows the journey of an ordinary family man, played by Ramesh Aravind, whose life takes a terrifying turn with encounters of inexplicable supernatural forces. Unlike conventional horror built purely on jump scares, DAIJI - THE BEGINNING teases a psychological exploration — diving into how an everyday man processes fear, paranoia, and the unexplainable when confronted with the otherworldly.

 

The impressive supporting cast includes Avinash, K.S. Sridhar, Alexandra Taylor, Nidhi Hegade, Ramesh Pandith, and a wide ensemble of notable actors, further enriching the film’s dramatic depth. With Akash Srivatsa at the helm — known for his directorial work on the Shivaji Surathkal crime-thriller franchise — audiences can expect a layered narrative combining tight suspense and emotional intensity. His collaboration once again with Ramesh Aravind builds anticipation for a strong character-driven performance.

 

Produced under Vibha Kashyap Productions, the film’s teasers hint at atmospheric visuals, unsettling sound design, and a narrative deeply rooted in realism while carrying unsettling shades of horror. The psychological dread paired with unexplained phenomena sets up DAIJI - THE BEGINNING as a genre-defining project in Kannada cinema, promising to deliver fear with purpose and intrigue.

 

Slated for a winter 2025 release, the film has already generated buzz for presenting horror with substance, merging cultural authenticity and psychological exploration. With its strong ensemble and an acclaimed director steering it forward, DAIJI - THE BEGINNING seems ready to carve its place as a unique and terrifying cinematic experience.
