Naani

A couple moves into a palatial house. Supernatural occurrences follow, which lead to the couple unearthing a story of the house's previous inhabitants, which is a tale about a family comprising a little girl called Naani, whose spirit guards the house.

Directed by Raghavendra K. Gollahalli, Naani leans on a strong ensemble — Manish Arya, Priyanka Rao, Baby Suhasini — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2016.
