Actress Shirin will be seen next in a lead role in a horror film titled Dhigil, directed by Santosh Kodenkeri, an ad filmmaker who is making his feature film debut. Ashok of Pidichirukku fame plays the male lead.

Says Santhosh, “The entire film happens in one night. Shirin plays a TV script writer who is travelling from Chennai to Coorg. She stays in a home stay in Coorg for the night as she wants to surprise her boyfriend, played by Ashok, on his birthday the next morning.
The mysterious happenings that occur during her stay and her ordeal through the night form the plot.” He adds that though there will be a few supernatural ele ments, the film is basically a psychological thriller.

Interestingly, Santhosh is making the film in Kannada as well. “Since the subject is universal, I decided to make this as a bilingual. While Ashok reprises his role, Sayali Bhagat plays the female lead in the Kannada version,” he reveals.
