    Angels, demons and a digital debut Aghathiyaa haunts Prime’s Top 10

    MUMBAI: From heavenly visions to hellish horrors, Aghathiyaa has officially ascended to the OTT throne. After casting its spell in cinemas across 600 plus screens and three languages, the high-concept Tamil fantasy-horror Aghathiyaa is now taking Amazon Prime Video by storm, breaking into the platform’s Top 10 trending titles in India. The milestone marks a rare feat for a regional genre film, especially one as unapologetically ambitious as this.

    Directed by lyricist-turned-filmmaker Pa. Vijay, Aghathiyaa conjures a battle between divine and demonic forces, anchored in mythology and marinated in mystery. With VFX grandeur reminiscent of global epics, the film follows an ordinary man entangled in a celestial tug-of-war with Action King Arjun Sarja, Jiiva, Raashii Khanna, and Yogi Babu delivering both gravitas and ghostly chills.

    But beyond the visual razzle-dazzle, the film weaves in themes of colonial resistance and familial devotion, lending it emotional resonance rarely seen in the genre. The hauntingly beautiful score by Yuvan Shankar Raja doesn’t hurt either.

    WAM India, founder & managing director Aneesh Arjun Dev shares, “Aghathiyaa was created as a passion project to blend storytelling with technology. Seeing it embraced by audiences on Prime is a proud moment for our entire team.”

    With its digital footprint echoing its theatrical roar, Aghathiyaa might just become the flagbearer for a new wave of Indian fantasy-horror, where mythology meets mainstream magic.

    Catch Aghathiyaa now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, and prepare for a showdown where the stakes are celestial.
