Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Adhu exemplifies early 2000s Tamil horror's fascination with transplant trauma — a regional subgenre where medical modernity clashes with supernatural karma.
Sneha reportedly learned basic violin for the role, though the final soundtrack used professional musicians. The church orchestra scenes were filmed at St. Thomas Mount in Chennai.
