Vijay Antony new film titled HATYA

Actor Vijay Antony, who has never missed to amuse the universal crowds

with unique roles and amazing scripts, is all set to entertain with a
new-fangled role as a detective in his upcoming movie ‘Hatya’. Ritika
Singh plays Sandhya, a rookie cop, who is assigned to work alongside
him. The film is directed by Balaji Kumar and is produced by Kamal
Bohra, G. Dhananjayan, Pradeep B, Pankaj Bohra, and S Vikram Kumar of
Infiniti Film Ventures in association with Tan Sri Doraisingam Pillai,
Siddhartha Shankar & RVS Ashok Kumar of Lotus Pictures.

According to director Balaji Kumar, 'Hatya' is loosely inspired by the
murder of Dorothy King incident in 1923 that shocked the entire world
for its incredulous complexities is cracking the mystery lying beneath
it. The filmmaker adds that he had to work on 30-odd drafts before the
final draft, which has the premise adapted to the modern-day
backdrops.  Sharing about the film’s gist, he adds, “The story is
about a beautiful model named Leila, who is found murdered in her
upscale apartment. One of the five men known to her, each with a
motive to see Leila dead, has managed to get in on the right of her
death.  Detective Vinayak (Vijay Antony) has been refrained from
active field works after a personal tragedy for years. However, with
the case turning out to be complicated, the department has no options
left, but to bring him back to crack the mystery. The characterization
encapsulates its brilliance while solving the mystery, and emotional
adherence as a doting father as well. Ritika Singh plays Sandhya, who
has to work under her mentor Vinayak to get to the bottom of the case,
and solve it.”


While Vijay Antony and Ritika Singh are playing the lead characters,
the others in the star cast include John Vijay, Radikaa Sarathkumar,
Murli Sharma, Siddhartha Shankar, Arjun Chidambaram, Kishore Kumar,
Samkit Bohra, and a few more prominent actors.
