'Darling 2' to hit the screens in March

Producer Gnanavel Raja has confirmed that the sequel to last year's horror-comedy "Darling" will hit the screens next month.

"We are planning to release the film by early March," Gnanavel Raja said in a statement.

He added: "Sequels need not necessarily be the film with the same cast or script, the genre is good enough to hold the brand value."

The film was initially titled "Jinn". But Raja felt it needed to be changed.

Directed by debutant Sathish Chandrasekaran, the story is set around five friends who go on a hill station trip with a possessed friend.
