Directed by M.S. Raja, ‘Sevappi- Aaha Original’ premieres on January 12, 2024!
Chennai 26 December 2023 Aha Tamil has been entertaining audiences by producing promising and acclaimed films. In line with that, now they are all set to woo the audience again with ‘Sevappi’. Produced by Rajeshwar Kaliswamy and Prasanna Balachandran, M. S. Raja has written and directed this feel good film. The character of Kumaran, a 5-year-old boy, and Poornima Ravi of ‘Bigg Boss’ fame, who plays his mother, are the main characters. Popular Tamil artist Rishikanth plays the boy’s maternal uncle.
The story of Sevappi revolves around a five-year-old boy living in a small village in Tamil Nadu in the 1990s. A little boy lovingly rears a chicken. Like a father’s love for his children, the little boy nurtures the chicken with care and affection. At some point the bond of affection breaks and the village where the two parties live together in harmony breaks into two and collides. Did the boy and the chicken get together in the end? Did the villagers come together? That is the story of “Sevappi”.
The entire story was shot in just 27 days in Madhipalayam, a village between Kerala and Tamil Nadu. During the pre-production stage, director Raja and his team discovered that many villagers were very interested in acting. ‘Sevappi’ has given the villagers an opportunity to fulfill their wish and act for the truthfulness of the story.
‘Sevappi’ premieres on 12th January 2024 for Pongal on Aha Tamil OTD platform.
