Aranmanai 3 was announced in January 2020, with Sundar returning as director. Sun Pictures was initially set to produce, but Avni Cinemax and Benzz Media later took over. Principal photography began in February 2020 but was stalled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in India, resuming that November and concluded the same year. Post-production works took over six months. The music was composed by C. Sathya, cinematography was handled by U. K. Senthil Kumar and editing by Fenny Oliver.
Aranmanai 3 was released by theatrically on 14 October 2021, coinciding with Ayudha Pooja, by Red Giant Movies. The film received mixed reviews from critics but emerged a commercial success. The fourth installment in the series, Aranmanai 4, was released in 2024.
The film begins with a young Jyothi encountering a spirit in her home, terrifying her. Her father, Zamindar Rajasekhar, resents Jyothi as her mother died giving birth to her. Believing she is lying for attention, he angrily sends her to a boarding school.
Many years later, a court ruling forces Rajasekhar to open a secret room at the village temple. Rajasekhar is terrified and angry at the court ruling and is relieved when they find nothing inside the room. Soon after, Rajasekhar's manservant and driver, Durai, dies by electrocution. Jyothi, now an adult, returns for Durai's funeral and falls in love with her childhood sweetheart, Saravanan. Jyothi realises that the spirit that haunted her is now haunting her young relative, Shalu. Jyothi is later lured to her late mother's room and nearly killed by a falling chandelier, but a portrait of her late mother, Eeshwari, saves her. She later has another encounter with both Eeshwari's spirit and the spirit haunting Shalu. One night, Shalu argues with the hostile spirit and is doused in paint thinner. She is chased by flames and rescued by her father, Ravi. Jyothi convinces Ravi to investigate the mysterious occurrences for Shalu's sake.
Ravi investigates Eeshwari's room and discovers a photo of Jyothi’s parents with three servants, with the faces of two servants scratched out. He encounters Eeshwari's spirit, and the third servant in the photo gets murdered shortly after. Ravi and Jyothi bring priests to exorcise the palace. They trap one of the two ghosts, but the other appears and destroys the trap, revealing that it has possessed Saravanan. Ravi tells Jyothi that this spirit is Eeshwari, who was responsible for the murders and the attack on Shalu. The deaths spooks Rajasekhar and visits Saamiyaadi, a hermit priest. Saravanan attacks the pair. Ravi manages to rescue Rajasekhar, but Saamiyaadi is left behind, and Eeshwari confronts him. Rajasekhar reveals the truth to Ravi and Vallimalai Swamiji.
In the past, Rajasekhar had forcibly married Eeshwari after falling for her at her wedding to Saamiyaadi's son, Samikannu. When their child is born, the child resembles Samikannu, and Rajasekhar realises she had already been pregnant at the wedding. A furious Rajasekhar has the child secretly killed and buried in the palace, then stabs Eeshwari, killing her. He replaces the dead child with Durai's newborn daughter and claims her as his own. Samikannu steals Eeshwari's body and attempts to use black magic to revive her but is horrified when she returns as a ghoul and abandons her in the forest. Eeshwari later kills the midwife who poisoned her child and threatens Rajasekhar. Rajasekhar convinces Saamiyaadi to help him destroy the spirit his son revived. Saamiyaadi tricks Samikannu into luring out Eeshwari's spirit and traps her in the hidden room in the temple. During the attempt, Saamiyaadi accidentally kills Samikannu and withdraws to the forest to mourn.
In the present, Eeshwari reveals to Saamiyadi that he did not kill Samikannu, but Durai killed Samikannu on Rajasekhar's order. She wants to replace the soul in Jyothi’s body with that of her dead child, believing that Jyothi is living the life that her child should have had. She convinces Saamiyaadi to raise Samikannu's spirit and help her. Saamiyaadi dies raising the spirit of his son. Ravi and Jyothi trap and take the spirit of Eeshwari's child to the priests who had helped them. They initially try to lay her and Eeshwari to rest, but the arrival of Samikannu blindsided them. Eeshwari's spirit kills Rajasekhar, but Jyothi, Ravi, and the priests banish the three spirits during a holy festival, freeing Saravanan.
