Bigg Boss fame Kavin and Bigil girl Amritha Aiyer had teamed up for a horror-thriller titled 'Lift' directed by debutant Vineeth. Produced by EKAA Entertainment, the film has both Kavin and Amritha playing IT professionals in the film. Just when the film was finally set to release, the lockdown due to the deadly coronavirus has kept Kavin fans waiting.
The shooting of 'Lift' was completed before the lockdown in March last year and the post-production work was also completed. Earlier in April, Libra Productions had grabbed the theatrical rights of the film. In a recent interview, Ravindar of Libra Productions has said that they will wait till mid of June to assess the situation and decide on the release of the film in theatres or OTT platform.
While he added that the film is movie made for pulling audience into the theatres, he also said that 'Lift' will be the 'Evil Dead' of Tamil cinema. The film has Yuva of 'Teddy' and 'Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma' fame cranking the camera, while newbie Michael Britto is the music composer.
