Dejavu release date: When and where to watch the Arulnithi-starrer mystery drama online

Arulnithi, whose first outing this year, D Block, released earlier last month had another release, too, towards the end of the month. Dejavu, helmed by debutant Arvindh Srinivasan, was released in theatres on July 22. The movie, which opened to mixed reviews, is now out on OTT.

Madhoo, Achyuth Kumar, Ragav Vijay and Smruthi Venkat play pivotal characters in the movie which has been bankrolled by Vijay Pandi K.

The movie's story revolves around a cop who sets out to investigate a peculiar kidnapping case. He finds that everything associated with the kidnap is happening based on the sequence of events in a novel written by a drunkard.

The rest of the story is about his attempts to connect the novel's events and the kidnap which has shook the entire police department. Will he be able to solve the mystery?

Dejavu was released on Amazon Prime Video on August 19. PG Muthiah, who has handled cinematography for the movie, has also co-produced the project. Ghibran and Arul E Siddharth have handled music direction and editing respectively for the film.

Vinoth Raveendran has helmed art direction while Pradeep Dinesh has choreographed action scenes for Dejavu. Chetan, Kali Venkat and Mime Gopi are other actors who are seen essaying key roles in the film.

Ghibran's background score and the film's plot received appreciation, but the confusing screenplay and unengaging latter half spoiled the movie's prospects to become a taut thriller.

Arulnithi is now gearing up for his next outing, titled Diary. Billed as a mystery thriller which revolves around bus accidents which happen at a specific place in a hill station, the movie will hit the screens on August 26.
