The film is let down by a feeble script and a trio of performances that are just about passable.The movie relies on every horror film trope that ever existed. There are creaking doors and floors, shots of dark haunted mansions, unoccupied rocking chairs that mysteriously move, a screaming hapless heroine, a flying exorcist, a man eating raw meat to prove he is possessed, a screeching witch and an evil spirit with a fondness for playing hide-and-seek.
Chopra has a troubled, pinched expression for most of the movie, while Karwal doesn’t have much to do except, well, act possessed. It is Joshi, who has established himself as an actor with impeccable timing with movies such 3 Idiots, who seriously disappoints. His lacklustre display could set his career back immeasurably.
