The most dangerous players never show their faces. They hide behind masks and watch the chaos unfold. Premiering on October 2,
The Game: You Never Play Alone — Netflix India’s first Tamil series of 2025 — is a character-driven thriller that unravels the hidden costs of living in a hyper-connected world.
As secrets slip through screens and trust breaks under pressure, what begins as a mystery becomes a deeper exploration of identity and power.
Directed by Rajesh M. Selva, the series is led by Shraddha Srinath, along with Santhosh Prathap, Chandini, Syama Harini, Bala Hasan, Subash Selvam, Viviya Santh, Dheeraj, and Hema, in supporting roles.
Director Rajesh M. Selva says of the series, “The Game is more than just a thriller; it’s a reflection of the world we live in, where our lives are entangled in screens, secrets, and shifting loyalties. At its core, it’s a story about people, their choices, vulnerabilities, and the fragile line between truth and deception. Collaborating with Netflix and Applause Entertainment gave us the freedom to push creative boundaries, and I can’t wait for audiences to not just watch The Game, but to step into its world and feel its pulse”
Blending the intrigue of a thriller with the pulse of family conflict and the quiet ache of hidden truths, it invites viewers to look beyond the screen and into the lives we curate, conceal, and protect.
