On Thursday, Netflix announced that Tu Yaa Main will arrive on the platform on April 10. Sharing a short video featuring a close-up shot of a crocodile and Shanaya screaming for help in the background, Netflix wrote, “Love can be eye-opening 👀❤️ Watch Tu Yaa Main, out 10 April, on Netflix.”

Talking about the film streaming globally on Netflix, director Bejoy Nambiar said, “Tu Yaa Main was always about creating something visceral and unpredictable. We wanted audiences to feel the tension as it unfolds. It’s been great to see people connect with it, especially since it’s not a genre we do often. And with the Netflix release, we’re excited for more audiences to experience it as well.”

Tu Yaa Main marked Shanaya’s second theatrical release after her debut film, Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, alongside Vikrant Massey, failed at the box office. Talking about the film, Shanaya penned a note on Instagram that read, “Tu Yaa Main came into my life at a time when I really didn’t have the most confidence in myself, and it gave me that and everything more. Tu Yaa Main is now in theatres and Avani is out there surviving crocodiles. She taught me so much, especially how to be a complete BADASS (still trying… getting there… I think).

“Thank you, not just for letting me play her, but for accepting me as a part of something like this so early on in my career… all the love from the audience, the reviews, everything. Overwhelmed. I still have a long journey of learning this art, so getting to work with @bejoynambiar and @aanandlrai’s slightly unhinged, very real world feels kind of wild! @bejoynambiar sir, thank you for bringing AVANI to life, for believing in me and pushing me to be the best version of myself. I’m forever grateful to have gotten the chance to be directed by YOU! Love u sir!”

About Tu Yaa Main

Directed by Bejoy Nambiar, the film is an adaptation of the 2018 Thai horror thriller The Pool (story adapted by Himanshu Sharma, written by Abhishek Arun Bandekar). The film tells the story of Avani, a popular social media content creator with millions of followers, and Maruti, aka Aala Flowpara from Nalasopara, an aspiring rapper. The two meet and sparks fly. He is drawn to her flashy lifestyle, while she finds comfort in his low-key, grounded world.

However, on their way to Goa, they get stranded and take refuge in a small hotel, after which things spiral quickly. The film received mixed reviews and collected only ₹7.31 crore at the domestic box office.
