just playing for himself--he's playing for the country, carrying the weight of expectations, the love for the game, and the battle between his dreams and reality. TEST is more than just a sports film; it's about the choices that define us. I can't wait for audiences to step into his world and witness it on Netflix."

He added, "This film is about resilience, the weight of choices, and how life itself is the greatest test of all. Bringing together R. Madhavan, Nayanthara, and Siddharth -- three powerhouse performers -- for the first time made this journey even more special. I'm grateful to YNOT Studios, Netflix, and my incredible team for bringing this vision to life. Excited for the world to watch TEST unfold."
