The Tamil thriller “Blackmail,” starring GV Prakash Kumar, is now gearing up for its digital premiere on Sun NXT after an average run at the box office. The film, directed by Mu Maran, will be available for streaming from October 30, 2025, much to the excitement of GV Prakash’s fans.
While thrillers usually rely on suspense and well-timed twists, Blackmail has been criticized for including too many plot twists, which, according to viewers, diluted the excitement. Similar to the Malayalam film Mirage, the overcomplicated storytelling slightly overshadowed what could have been a solid thriller experience.
Despite mixed reviews, Blackmail still stands out for its performances and technical strengths. The film features an impressive cast including GV Prakash Kumar, Teju Ashwini, Srikanth, Bindu Madhavi, Vettai Muthukumar, Ramesh Thilak, Linga, Redin Kingsley, Tamil Shaji, Haripriya, and Girija Hari.
Written and directed by Mu Maran, the movie is produced by Deivakani Amalraj under the JDS Film Factory banner. The music is composed by Sam CS, whose background score adds intensity to key moments, while Gokul Benoy’s cinematography and San Lokesh’s editing give the film a polished finish.
With Sun NXT expanding its Tamil content library, Blackmail is set to reach a wider digital audience who missed it in theatres.
