Richa Panwar

The show started off really well especially with its setting of the boarding school and commendable acting of main child protagonist. However, it kept on losing its appeal due to the director’s desperate attempts at checking off cliches like bullying, murder, teenage love drama, LGBTQ+, corrupt police etc. As in acting, “Vedant”, “Adhiraj”, “Dev” did a great job and the Hindi teacher was refreshing to watch. However, Rasika’s story line felt a little forced and unnecessary. Overall an above average attempt at making a horror thriller and could be given 3.5 stars.

Reasons to watch 1. Superb acting, not only by MD, but SK, Manav and all others 2. Good underlying story though a little dragged on sometime 3. Madhuri’s nostalgia 4. Entertainment

A movie that felt like fresh breeze amidst the polluted environment [of movies guys). A comparatively new story line (for Indian audience), a gripping screenplay and effortless acting of leads as well as co-actors. A few clichés, can be overlooked in the name of cinematic liberty. A perfect recommendation; could be watched with friends or on a romantic date night! :)
