What if you are stuck inside a supermarket and experience some paranormal activity? Srinivas Kavinayam’s PeiPasi explores this premise.
Four friends, played by Hari Krishna Bhaskar, Amritha, Vibin and Namitha, decide to do something fun to get rid of their worries. Little do they know what is in store. They head to a pub, where they get into a disagreement with a group of men. After this, they are seen running for their lives and finally hide inside a supermarket. Things go awry when Karunakaran, who plays a cop, walks inside and starts shooting at them.
The supermarket can be comfortably called the ‘hero’ of the film. What the four friends experience inside the place and how they make their way out of it forms the crux of the plot. The film gives us a taste of the fear-factor that exists in supermarkets during non-working hours.
