Atharvaa Murali is a part of Mani Ratnam and Jayendra Panchapakesan's Navarasa. He plays one of the lead roles in a segment titled Thunntha Pin, directed by Sarjun KM. Atharvaa plays the role of a young special task force officer named Vetri. He is nervous and inexperienced in his job and had to follow a high-profile case. Photos of Atharvaa in military uniform are doing the roles on social media. Navarasa is a nine-film anthology that will premiere on Netflix on August 6.
When Sarjun first told me about the script, I was eager to see which emotion he was going to discuss. My feeling was heightened when he said the film would be about courage. I was told that I would be playing a Special Task Force officer. Although my mind saw macho uniforms and a swaggering vibe, after reading the script it was a very different experience. Overall, it was a wonderful experience working with Sarjun and portraying Vetri.” Navarasa portrays nine emotions including love, laughter, anger, sorrow, courage, disgust, feat, surprise, and peace. The proceeds from Navarasa will help technicians in the Tamil film industry.
