Nikita Roy is a masterclass in how to turn an interesting idea into a painfully boring experience. Marketed as a psychological thriller, it generously offers long pauses, confused storytelling, and zero tension. The screenplay wanders aimlessly, the pacing tests your patience, and the “twists” arrive right after you’ve already given up caring. Performances are flat, dialogues feel unintentionally funny, and the direction seems unsure of what it wants to say. Stylish visuals try their best, but even they can’t save this beautifully packaged disappointment.
