It is the third instalment in the Aranmanai film series, produced by Khushbu Sundar under Avni Cinemax, with cinematography by U. K. Senthil Kumar, music composed by C. Sathya, and film editing by Fenny Oliver. The story revolves around Jyothi (Khanna), who is threatened by a vengeful spirit, as she tries to discover the truth with her relative Ravi (Sundar).

The film marks the posthumous release of actor Vivek. Aranmanai 3 was released by theatrically on October 14 2021, coinciding with Ayudha Pooja, and received mixed to negative reviews from critics and audiences, but was a commercial success at the box-office.^[2]^[3]

Plot

The film begins with a young Jyothi encounters a spirit in her home, terrifying her. Her father, Zamindar Rajasekhar, resents Jyothi as her mother died giving birth to her. Believing she is lying for attention, he angrily sends her to a boarding school.

Many years later, a court ruling forces Rajasekhar to open a secret room at the village temple. Rajasekhar is terrified and angry at the court ruling and is relieved when they find nothing inside the room. Soon after, Rajasekhar's manservant and driver, Durai, dies by electrocution. Jyothi, now an adult, returns for Durai's funeral and falls in love with her childhood sweetheart, Saravanan. Jyothi realises that the spirit that haunted her is now haunting her young relative, Shalu. Jyothi is later lured to her late mother's room and nearly killed by a falling chandelier, but a portrait of her late mother, Eeshwari, saves her. She later has another encounter with both Eeshwari's spirit and the spirit haunting Shalu. One night, Shalu argues with the hostile spirit and is doused in paint thinner. She is chased by flames and rescued by her father, Ravi. Jyothi convinces Ravi to investigate the mysterious occurrences for Shalu's sake.

Ravi investigates Eeshwari's room and discovers a photo of Jyothi’s parents with three servants, with the faces of two servants scratched out. He encounters Eeshwari's spirit, and the third servant in the photo gets murdered shortly after. Ravi and Jyothi bring priests to exorcise the palace. They trap one of the two ghosts, but the other appears and destroys the trap, revealing that it has possessed Saravanan. Ravi tells Jyothi that this spirit is Eeshwari, who was responsible for the murders and the attack on Shalu. The deaths spooks Rajasekhar and visits Saamiyaadi, a hermit priest. Saravanan attacks the pair. Ravi manages to rescue Rajasekhar, but Saamiyaadi is left behind, and Eeshwari confronts him. Rajasekhar reveals the truth to Ravi and Vallimalai Swamiji.

Past: Rajasekhar had forcibly married Eeshwari after falling for her at her wedding to Saamiyaadi's son, Samikannu. When their child is born, the child resembles Samikannu, and Rajasekhar realises she had already been pregnant at the wedding. A furious Rajasekhar has the child secretly killed and buried in the palace, then stabs Eeshwari, killing her. He replaces the dead child with Durai's newborn daughter and claims her as his own. Samikannu steals Eeshwari's body and attempts to use black magic to revive her but is horrified when she returns as a ghoul and abandons her in the forest. Eeshwari later kills the midwife who poisoned her child and threatens Rajasekhar. Rajasekhar convinces Saamiyaadi to help him destroy the spirit his son revived. Saamiyaadi tricks Samikannu into luring out Eeshwari's spirit and traps her in the hidden room in the temple. During the attempt, Saamiyaadi accidentally kills Samikannu and withdraws to the forest to mourn.

Present: Eeshwari reveals to Saamiyadi that he did not kill Samikannu, but Durai killed Samikannu on Rajasekhar's order. She wants to replace the soul in Jyothi’s body with that of her dead child, believing that Jyothi is living the life that her child should have had. She convinces Saamiyaadi to raise Samikannu's spirit and help her. Saamiyaadi dies raising the spirit of his son. Ravi and Jyothi trap and take the spirit of Eeshwari's child to the priests who had helped them. They initially try to lay her and Eeshwari to rest, but the arrival of Samikannu blindsided them. Eeshwari's spirit kills Rajasekhar, but Jyothi, Ravi, and the priests banish the three spirits during a holy festival, freeing Saravanan.

Saravanan and Jyothi marry, hinting at a sequel.

Reception

Critical response

Aranmanai 3 received mixed to negative reviews from critics.^[50]

Manoj Kumar R. of The Indian Express gave 0.5 out of 5 stars and called it, "The dumbest film of the year yet".^[51] Bharathy Singaravel of The News Minute gave the movie 1.5 stars and said, "No ghost, spirit or spectre doomed to haunt the same house for eternity has felt more trapped than I did in the theatre today. Even an end credit song by Arivu couldn’t keep me from fleeing for the exit the second the lights came on. Avoid Aranmanai 3 with the same dedication that Sundar C shows in evading at arriving at a conclusion in this film."^[52]

Praveen Sudevan of The Hindu said Sundar C's third instalment in the ‘Aranmanai’ franchise succeeds neither in scaring the audience nor making them laugh.^[53] The Times of India gave 3 stars to the film and said, "It all happens in predictable fashion, and by the time the film ends, we neither feel overwhelmed nor underwhelmed. That, in a way, is the director's success – making us feel contended [sic] with a passable and instantly forgettable entertainer."^[54] Karthikeyan S of Dinamani said that overall it is doubtful whether even those who liked the first and second parts of Aranmanai will like this film.^[55]

Sudhir Srinivasan of Cinema Express wrote, "We have seen in multiple carbon copy films in this genre. Even still, it’s astonishing how little Aranmanai 3 seems to care about being novel".^[56] Subha J. Rao of Film Companion wrote, "What is the point of taking forward a franchise when there’s little to redeem it? It’s just a waste of everyone’s time."^[57]

Box office

Despite receiving mixed to negative reviews, Aranmanai 3 had a good opening on the first day of its theatrical release.^[58] It grossed around ₹4 crore on the opening day,^[59] and became a hit at the box-office,^[60] collecting over ₹15 crore in the first four days of its release.^[50]

Controversy

There were complaints among critics and audience about Arya's screentime in the film.^[61] The entire team promoted the film with him, and conveyed that he had been playing a lead role as a spirit.^[12] However, his total screen space in the film was only 30 minutes.^[53]

Installment

The fourth installment, titled Aranmanai 4, starring Sundar C, Tamannaah Bhatia, Raashii Khanna and Santhosh Prathap, was released on 3 May 2024. The film grossed ₹100 crore worldwide, making it the most successful entry in the Aranmanai franchise.
