Vishnu Vishal’s investigative thriller Aaryan receives U/A certification from CBFC. Directed by Praveen K and co-written by Manu Anand, the gripping action film starring Selvaraghavan and Shraddha Srinath releases worldwide on October 31, 2025.
Vishnu Vishal’s much-awaited investigative action thriller Aaryan has officially received clearance from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) with a U/A certificate, paving the way for its grand theatrical release on October 31, 2025.
The announcement came through Vishnu Vishal Studioz’s official X (formerly Twitter) handle, which wrote, “From ‘Under Investigation’ to U/A. #Aaryan – cleared, certified, and coming to theatres on October 31st.” The update has sparked excitement among fans eagerly awaiting the actor’s return in a high-stakes police role.
An Edge-of-the-Seat Thriller
Directed by Praveen K and produced by Vishnu Vishal Studioz in association with Shubhra and Aryan Ramesh, Aaryan promises to be an intense investigative thriller combining emotion, suspense, and psychological tension.
The film’s trailer, which recently went viral, teases a chilling cat-and-mouse battle between a police officer (played by Vishnu Vishal) and a ruthless serial killer (played by Selvaraghavan). The killer, driven by a twisted challenge, taunts the police by revealing his victim’s name exactly one hour before committing the crime.
When the police realize that this is just the start of a gruesome killing spree, they assign the case to Vishnu Vishal’s character, a skilled officer known for cracking a similar serial murder case in Kodaikanal. What follows is a gripping duel of wits, instincts, and morality between the law and a calculating murderer.
A Powerful Ensemble Cast
Apart from Vishnu Vishal and Selvaraghavan, the film stars Shraddha Srinath and Maanasa Choudhary in prominent roles. The supporting cast includes Sai Ronak, Tarak Ponnappa, Mala Parvathi, Avinash, and Abishek Joseph George, all of whom bring depth to the narrative.
The story, which blends investigative tension with human drama, is co-written by Manu Anand, the director of FIR, another hit thriller starring Vishnu Vishal.
A Long-Awaited Project
The journey of Aaryan began in September 2022, when the film officially went on floors with a traditional pooja ceremony. At the time, Vishnu Vishal had revealed why the project was personally significant to him: “My son now has my film in his name. This is going to be an unforgettable title for me.”
In February 2025, the actor announced that the film’s shoot had wrapped up, sharing, “I just have one promise to make today — #Aaryan will be a unique viewing experience for all audiences. Shoot wrapped!”
Technical Excellence and Action Highlights
Cinematography for Aaryan is handled by Harish Kannan, known for his visually immersive style, while Sam CS scores the background music, promising a hauntingly atmospheric tone to match the film’s dark themes.
The film’s editing is by San Lokesh, and the action sequences are choreographed by Stunt Silva, guaranteeing high-octane moments crafted for big-screen impact.
Director Praveen K, who is making his mark in the thriller genre, has combined cinematic intensity with a human touch, aiming to keep the audience emotionally invested while delivering a fast-paced narrative.
Expectations and Release Buzz
With its certification now complete, Aaryan is set to hit theatres worldwide on October 31, 2025, coinciding with the festive and Halloween weekend — an apt slot for a psychological crime thriller.
