The Test movie
The movie Test is a drama revolving around three individuals who intertwine beyond and because of cricket. The film marks the directorial debut of producer S Sashikanth.
““Having nurtured stories as a producer for years, stepping into the director’s chair for TEST was both exhilarating and deeply personal. This film is about resilience, the weight of choices, and how life itself is the greatest test of all,” Sashikanth was quoted in a Netflix statement as saying.
“TEST marks our first Tamil original feature film of 2025. It’s a deeply compelling drama thriller that tests the moral thresholds of its three protagonists, played by the powerhouse talents R. Madhavan, Nayanthara, and Siddharth,” Monika Shergill, vice-president, content, Netflix India, said in a statement.
