Cast and supernatural elements in ‘Immortal’
Along with GV Prakash Kumar and Kayadu Lohar, the film features TM Karthik, Kumar Natarajan and Lollu Sabha Maaran. ‘Immortal’ received two stars out of five in the ETimes review. The review criticised the film’s execution and its reliance on familiar horror conventions.ETimes exclusive review read, “Immortal plays out like a textbook of horror film templates with the blandest execution. In a film like Pizza, we worry about the Vijay Sethupathi character being trapped in a haunted house because of how the character has been presented to us, with relatable traits, issues, and motivations. Here, we hardly care for Magi and only feel that he deserves it as his entire personality can be defined as: a horny young man.“
