Yavarum Nalam (2009)

In the modern world, where the TV has risen from a humble household convenience to a pivotal source of relief, information, and entertainment, the dynamic of family power often hinges on the control of the remote. But what if the TV steps beyond its role as a passive entertainer and begins to manipulate what you see? Meet Manohar, a simple man who, along with his family, moves into a new apartment at 13B, only to discover the strange power held by their television set. As they settle into their new home, uncanny incidents begin to plague their lives. Milk, a symbol of purity and nourishment, curdles inexplicably, an ill omen that chills the heart. The elevator plays favorites, refusing to function only for Manohar, adding an eerie mystique to their otherwise ordinary apartment. Amidst these oddities, the female family members find solace in a popular afternoon television show, "Sab Kehriyat Hai." However, comfort soon turns into a creeping dread for Manohar. He observes an unsettling coincidence - events unfolding in the television show mirror his family's life. His sister's graduation, his wife Priya's pregnancy, and her subsequent miscarriage all eerily reflect on the small screen. As the TV show takes a darker turn, Manohar finds himself entangled in a terrifying conundrum, fearing the worst for his family. Yavarum Nalam is a gripping tale of a man grappling with a terrifying reality where the line between entertainment and life-threatening horror is blurred. As Manohar navigates this chilling narrative, the audience is drawn into a compelling exploration of power, control, and the haunting potential of the mundane.

Yavarum Nalam is a horror movie featuring R. Madhavan.
