A unique plot for psychological thriller

First film of Ribhu Dasgupta, one of my favorite. He has spend a long time to write the script. It is very difficult to write such kind of script. People who love thriller movie should not miss this movie.

Definitely don't deserve this low rating !!

I guess this movie was released in a bad time, among those so called "Trendy" Bollywood movies. Nobody cared about it. Netflix picked it up, give it a try !
