Directed by Vikram Bhatt, the film also stars Gaurav Gupta and Kriti Kharbanda. The story revolves around a haunted house, a little mystery and a newlywed, in-love couple where one partner is hiding a big truth. The story has all the elements of a horror film.
Will the film be able to evoke scares as promised? Will Emraan Hashmi be able to revive the franchise? Will the horror scene in Bollywood improve with this reboot? Sameeksha from News18 is inside the theatre to find out.
The performances of the cast too are perfunctory. Gaurav Arora and Kriti Karbanda are un-relatable as the couple Rehaan and Shaina. Their characters lack the chemistry and their ordeal, panic and grief all seem forced. Nevertheless, Kriti shows promise.
Apart from the oomph factor, her transformation into a feral woman with frenzied energy, is worth a mention.
