Overview

Nayyi Navelli is a Hindi-language fantasy horror-comedy that blends Indian family drama with supernatural folklore. Set in Meerut, the film follows the chaotic Awasthi family, whose lives take an unexpected turn with the arrival of Mohini, a seemingly perfect bride who brings harmony to the household. However, the family's newfound peace soon gives way to suspicion and supernatural chaos when her brother-in-law begins to suspect that Mohini is a shape-shifting daayan hiding behind her charming facade.

Fun Facts

Actor Addinath M. Kothare spent up to 12 hours in full-body silicone prosthetics for Nayyi Navelli. It took four hours to apply the makeup and another 90 minutes to remove it. The heat was so challenging that two of the five air conditioners on set were reserved for him!
