Development
In December 2024, several industry analysts in X.com reported that director Rahul Sadasivan had cast Pranav Mohanlal in his upcoming film, which, like his previous works, would also be a horror film. They noted that the shoot was expected to begin in either January or February 2025 and be completed in 40 days.[8] In an interview in January 2025, Rahul confirmed that his next film would indeed be a horror project, though he refrained from sharing further details.[9] The official announcement came on 24 March 2025, when Chakravarthy Ramachandra of Night Shift Studios, S. Sashikanth of YNOT Studios, Rahul, and Pranav revealed through their social media handles that they were collaborating on a horror film tentatively titled NSS 2 (indicating the second production from Night Shift Studios).[10] The same producers had backed Rahul's previous film Bramayugam, and for this project, he retained its core technical team.[11] The announcement also confirmed that filming had commenced on the same day.[12]
The project marks Pranav’s debut in the horror genre.[13] The screenplay is written by Rahul himself. In a correspondence with Variety, Rahul stated that "compared to my previous films, Diés Iraé explores a diametrically opposite emotional spectrum which connects to the new generation." Describing the film's genre, he added that "it stays true to the horror thriller space." The publication also reported that the film is slated for a worldwide release by the later half of 2025. The title was officially announced in early May, during post-production.[14] The title translates to "day of wrath" in Latin, referencing a medieval hymn associated with the Judgment Day.[15][16]
