Popular Tamil filmmakers Venkat Prabhu, Pa Ranjith, M Rajesh and Chimbu Devan have joined hands for an anthology film Victim: Who Is Next? A poster for the project was released earlier today.

While it is not yet known on which streaming platform Victim will be released, reliable sources confirmed that Disney+ Hotstar had snapped up the film.

While Pa Ranjith, M Rajesh and Chimbu Devan will be making their OTT debuts with the film, Venkat Prabhu has already forayed into the digital space with Disney+ Hotstar's Live Streaming, which has Kajal Aggarwal in the lead.

Several celebrities such as Sivakarthikeyan, RJ Balaji, Yuvan Shankar Raja and Anirudh Ravichander have been roped in to reveal what they have been victims of under the hashtag Victim. They took to Twitter to share their experience of victimhood.

The makers are yet to announce when Victim will be premiered. They are also yet to reveal the rest of the cast and crew.

It seems to be raining anthology films in Tamil and Telugu cinema. After Amazon Prime Video’s Putham Pudhu Kaalai (2020) and Netflix’s recently announced anthology film Navarasa (2021), this will be the third anthology to come out of Tamil cinema.

There is also a Telugu anthology titled Love Story from Netflix. This film has been directed by BV Nandini Reddy, Sankalp Reddy and Prashanth Varma.
