Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 6: Netflix is set to release the much-anticipated Tamil drama film TEST on April 4, 2025. The movie promises to captivate audiences with its intense exploration of life-changing choices, set against the backdrop of a cricket match.
The film stars a star-studded cast featuring acclaimed actors R. Madhavan, Nayanthara, Siddharth, and Meera Jasmine, and marks Netflix’s first original Tamil release of the year. The makers recently shared the film’s poster on social media, building excitement for the upcoming release.
In TEST, the characters are forced to confront moral dilemmas that extend far beyond the cricket field, testing their resilience, ambition, and willingness to sacrifice their personal desires for their dreams.

Reflecting on the personal significance of the film, Sashikanth said in a press statement, “Having nurtured stories as a producer for years, stepping into the director’s chair for TEST was both exhilarating and deeply personal. This film is about resilience, the weight of choices, and how life itself is the greatest test of all.”
He continued, “Bringing together R. Madhavan, Nayanthara, and Siddharth—three powerhouse performers—for the first time made this journey even more special. I’m grateful to YNOT Studios, Netflix, and my incredible team for bringing this vision to life. Excited for the world to watch TEST unfold.”
Monika Shergill, Vice-President of Content at Netflix India, shared her excitement for the project, saying, “TEST marks our first Tamil original feature film of 2025. It’s a deeply compelling drama thriller that tests the moral thresholds of its three protagonists.”
