Raaghu is a 2023 Indian action-horror-thriller built around a night-shift medicine delivery worker whose side hustle of quietly looting the homes he visits collides with something far more dangerous than he bargained for.
What is Raaghu about?
Vijay Raghavendra plays the title character, a delivery man who uses his after-dark rounds to slip into houses and take what he can. That routine breaks apart after an incident forces him into a string of shady, overnight arrangements he cannot easily walk back from. From there the story tightens into a race against a hidden antagonist, with Raaghu having to work out who he is up against before the situation costs him everything. The film leans on genre staples familiar to action-horror-thriller fans: tight nighttime settings, a protagonist whose moral footing is already unsteady, and a mystery that keeps its central threat mostly unseen until the pressure builds. Director M. Anand Raj frames the story around ordinary urban routine curdling into danger, using the gig-economy backdrop of late-night deliveries as the seed for a plot that escalates quickly once the first crooked deal is struck.
About the cast
Vijay Raghavendra carries the film in the lead role, playing a character whose profession gives the story its unusual entry point into crime and horror territory. The production credits M. Anand Raj as director, shaping a compact 93-minute runtime that keeps the focus tightly on its central figure rather than spreading across a large ensemble.
Context & significance
Raaghu arrives as part of a wave of regional Indian genre films that use a specific job or setting as connective tissue for a horror-thriller plot, in this case the anonymity and odd hours of night delivery work. That choice gives the film a grounded, everyday texture before it pivots into more heightened stakes, a structure common to smaller-budget genre productions aiming to build tension from familiar routines rather than elaborate premises.
