Khamoshiyan

Horror part=1/10 Romantic part=1/10 Logical part=1/10 This movie is completely logic less from the ghost to the petrol pump shown as a jammu petrol pump.. this movie has no proper direction. acting of sapna pebby is too bad. Don't waste ur money by watching this ridiculous movie.... movie stats with a writer searching for a story and leaves for jammu which in real is cape town. there he meets meera and useless horror scenes tease you... with a butterfly scene a bedridden jaidev who is deciple of evil worship devil by cutting the head of a cock and drinking its blood. its completely a ridiculous story even i don't remember that crap... only three people in entire hall

By and large, I'm not a fan of Bollywood Cinema (don't like that term much either, Bollywood and not cinema, just to be clear). There are definitely a few good filmmakers in India whose films are worth watching. However, most of the dynastic studios keep churning out the same old mediocre trash in the name of filmmaking and Khamoshiyan from the Bhatt camp is a perfect example of this.

Against my better judgement, I decided to watch this film for two reasons. Namely, Ali Fazal and the gorgeous locales of South Africa. I caught a glimpse of the scenery in the trailer and having lived in that country till some years back, I was simply hoping to revisit it through this film if nothing else. Unfortunately, the very first shock came when they attempted to pass it all off as Kashmir (and Bombay in one scene) instead. Really, who in their right mind would want to do that? If Kashmir is what they wanted, the film could have been easily shot in India.

Coming to the film itself, it's a mind-numbing amalgamation of a confusing storyline coupled with average on-screen performances and terrible CGI. It tries to do too much, and as a result, manages to get it all bogged down instead. For What it's worth, the plot could have worked a lot better had it been developed the right way by some capable storytellers.

Its very sad to see such mockery in the genre "Horror",( sorry they don't need horror no longer, they got a sub genre called erotic horror/erotic thriller or simply horrex)..The most pathetic fact is that we will get even more better story from some old B grade horror films..

Scare, sex the pattern is itself repeating, and be honest it disappoints by all the way.. The plot is very ridiculous and unbelievable.. Why they are repeating the tested formula of "Main stream B grade" films..

I don't want to say the story, you can guess it ! What was so raunchy and erotic in the movie that it got an A certificate? At once you would be clueless seeing Sapna Pabbi stripping off and then Ali Fazal trying to make love to her in the very first meet!! Don't waste your time by watching this so called horror film! One minute silence please!

Gave it a watch for the first time since it's release way bck in 2015, Khamoshiyan is a good horror romantic thriller with a decent n gripping 1st half with slow n unrealistic 2nd half(mostly during the end credits). Ali fazal acts well bt I felt tht for such kind of films some other actors would suit n mostly it's Emraan hashmi, Gurmeet Chaudhry ws decent and atleast wld say he suited the role he plays, Sapna paabi is Zero in terms of acting- her Hindi first of all is so damn accented n plus her Expressions also have no impact I really dnt understand wt the makers saw in her whilst casting. Overall the film is a decent one time thriller with some horror elements and gripping 1st half. I rate it a 6.3/10 starz.

Khamoshiyan is an intriguing blend of romance and thriller that manages to captivate without overwhelming. The film's premise revolves around a mysterious woman and a writer entangled in a web of secrets, leading to an engaging narrative that holds attention through its twists and turns.

The performances, especially by the lead actors, add a touch of depth to the story. Their portrayal of complex emotions and relationships provides a solid foundation for the film, making it more than just a standard thriller. The cinematography (while dodgy at times) and soundtrack work in harmony to create an atmospheric experience, enhancing the mood without overshadowing the plot.

However, Khamoshiyan does have its flaws. The pacing occasionally drags, and some plot points may seem predictable to avid thriller enthusiasts. The film's climax could be better as it delves a bit too into the supernatural side. Despite these issues, the movie's ability to maintain suspense and offer a few surprising moments makes it a worthwhile watch.

Overall, Khamoshiyan is not a groundbreaking thriller, but it succeeds in delivering a satisfying experience with its intriguing storyline and solid performances. It's a film that quietly charms rather than dazzles, making it a decent choice for a suspenseful evening.
