The wait is finally over as the highly anticipated Tamil original series Inspector Rishi launched on Prime Video. Amping up the excitement among the viewers and showcasing their enthusiasm, Prime Video installed immersive posters of the show all across Chennai. The hoardings highlight the heart-wrenching visuals of ‘Vanaratchi’ AKA ‘Ratchi’ a mythical deadly forest nymph and forest deity for the tribals, coming out of a web. The web on the edges of the billboard acts as one of the key pieces of evidence in the series of murders that take place in a small village in Tamil Nadu, Thaenkaadu. Launched at multiple locations in Chennai, the installations make viewers curious to watch this horror-crime-drama show. Along with unveiling these hoardings, the team of the series also visited Marina Beach in Chennai recently to celebrate the success of the show with the spectators.
