(No Spoiler Review) This movie was definitely not my cup of tea, murder mystery with a "WHOLESOME SUPERNATURAL SPIRITS" twist is not something i am willing to watch. Movie started of intriguing, setted up nicely.. whenever Frenny's character was on screen, it had all my attention. The climax was really stupid and i felt like i wasted my two hours.. for me the real story was of Taimur and Nirmala.. There small side lore was the only thing i liked in the movie. i am a fan of symbolism but the concepts of the movie were dangling between realism and fiction, so finding symbolisms for grief and longings were totally out of the question. (Spoiler Review Ahead), If Rosie/Simran was a ghost then how come she even physically opened the door to Suri's drowning car, the only justification is that in the film's universe the spirits can touch and move physical objects, but the problem is that the plot did not give enough attention to this supernatural aspect to believe this theory. All over for me this was a mess, people seem to like it on i don't know what basis but this film is a disaster and waste of time for me.

(NO SPOILER REVIEW) "CLASS", Netflix's Indian adaptation of Spanish series "Elite" has quite impressed me with its execution. I haven't seen the Spanish series so this show was quite fresh for me. The Storytelling is powerful, gives you an edge of the seat thriller-teen drama. I love how the modern day teen society has been presented in the series. The drama and issues are very real. The actors totally slayed there roles. The music and soundtrack is a vibe and sets you for the mood of the show. The only downside to this series is the realism of the setting. We know its a work of fiction but its school setting does not quite fit in India. I mean, As Dheeraj from the show said "Maine zindagi mei aisa school kabhi nahi dekha". So apart from the issues addressed in the series, the school setting is way to fictional for India (or maybe not?). Doors are open for a new season, so its a must watch for teen drama lovers. Don't expect anything huge on the murder mystery side, its a teen drama after all. PARENTAL GUIDE: sex, very partial nudity (almost negligible), a lot of abusing, discrimination, beating people (as in with hockey sticks), lot of drugs, alcohol, smoking. I rate it : 4.2 // 5
