Yaamirukka Bayamey

Kiran is a TV telemarketer who gets into trouble after one of his products has an opposite effect than what was intended, on the son of a local thug, Durai, and that he acted at the commercial for him. At the same moment, he discovers that his biological father left him a mansion on an estate in a small town through a letter sent to him. He cons Durai's son; escapes with the money along with his girlfriend Smitha; and renovates the rundown mansion into a hotel with the help of a local caretaker named Sharath, who was under the care of Kiran's father before, and his bombshell sister Saranya. Sharath wants to have Saranya marry Kiran for their personal gains, thereby triggering a catfight between Smitha and Saranya. Customers begin to come as soon the hotel opens. A husband and wife, a newly married Tamil-Chinese couple with relatives, a wrestling coach, and a bodybuilder die in the premise after staying for one night. The dead bodies are buried on the backyard. All the guests die except the schoolkids and teacher who were sent by the local police inspector. Initially, Kiran and Smitha suspect Sharath, but he proves his innocence. The local digger tips the police after seeing the four digging in the estate, and Kiran confesses to the police about their deception. However, the police reveals that they died many years ago and that the so-called guests of his hotel were the late owners of the mansion, who died after purchasing the mansion within a few days. His suspicions are confirmed when things start going awry in the house, indicating some supernatural presence after signing the documents for claiming the ownership of the mansion on Kiran's name. They soon go to seek help from brother Adaikalam, who is a cheat. They kidnap him and bring him to the house. The foursome catches an old man inside the house, assuming that he is a thief. However, the old man says that he and the others will die if they leave the hotel. He narrates that the mansion was haunted by a ghost — Mohini, who would kill the house's owner. Soon, Mohini starts to possess the people in the house and attacks Kiran. The gang is finally cornered with no chance of escape. It is said that they would die by midnight. Hearing someone banging on the door, Kiran opens the door to find Durai, his son, and his thugs. Durai asks for the house in return for the money he conned from him, along with the expense spent for searching him. Feeling pity for them, Kiran warns them about the spirit. Not listening to Kiran, Durai forces him to sign the papers for the house. Kiran and his friends are let go, and they see the spirits of the previous owners going inside the mansion on their way out. Just as they go out, they find the spirits of Durai and his group outside. Knowing that the ghost has killed them since it is midnight, Kiran and his group walk away. ==Cast==

Critical reception Udhav Naig of The Hindu called the film "a surprisingly well-made ‘horror-comedy’ that succeeds in continuously exploiting our irrational fear of the unknown even while nudging us to laugh at it...this is a fun summer film and should work regardless of whether one believes in the supernatural or not". Sify wrote, "Yaamirukka Bayamey is something different within the commercial format and provides potent dose of laughs to release the tension built up by the scares". M. Suganth of The Times of India gave it 3 stars out of 5 and wrote, "The horror genre's mandatory elements are all here...but Deekay nicely subverts some of these cliches...Also, he doesn't try to spoof the genre's tropes to elicit laughs but chooses to bring out the humour in other ways. It is this confidence that makes the film work". S. Saraswathi of Rediff.com gave 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "A clever script, good all round performances along with excellent support from the technical team make Deekay’s Yaamirukka Bayamey definitely worth a watch". Nandita Ravi of Deccan Chronicle wrote, "Some cheap thrills, enough screams, a whole lot of clichés with some laughs thrown in for good measure. With all the right elements in place, Yaamirukka Bayamey delivers what is expected of it". Box office In its opening weekend the film grossed approximately ₹2.42 crore from 262 screens in Tamil Nadu.
