Release date and idea

Backed by YNOT Studios, TEST also marks the directorial debut of S. Sashikanth, a producer stepping behind the camera for the first time. The director shares, “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. Bringing together three powerhouse performers — R. Madhavan, Nayanthara, and Siddharth — for the first time made this journey even more special.”
