This is Jyotika’s second outing as a school teacher after Gautham Menon’s hit Kaakha Kaakha in 2003. There has been curiosity around the title Raatchasi. The filmmakers said it was initially used only as a working title, but they later decided on it for the final title too. In March, a school set worth Rs 50 lakh was erected in Chennai where most of the shoot took place there. The film wrapped up by April, after which Jyotika began work on her other projects.
She is currently shooting for Malayalam director Jeethu Joseph’s upcoming film co-starring Karthi, Sathyaraj and Anson Paul. The first-look of Jackpot, her film with Revathy, was also released recently. They play cops in the action-comedy. Jyotika has also signed her next film with director Fredrick, and shoot will begin from the second half of this year.
