Even his pen name has an interesting inception. He has the kind of attitude that tells us that he might have had a past that bears down on his existence, but he is unable to put a finger on what is wrong with him. Nirup Bhandari in his debut film proves to be the perfect leading man. Some of these sequences are pretty horrifying and will scare many. The mystery of the village which is a standalone portion of the film is given enough time to build and that renders it effective. The way the narrative reveals their past was in keeping with the rest of the film and felt organic. This enhanced the tension of the sequences for me as I wanted to understand what was going on between them but had no means to do it. From the first time Sandhya and Gautam meet, we realize that something is off between the two and it shows in Sandhya’s expressions. It also explains a lot many things about Gautam and Indu. Once we understand their past, we finally understand why Sandhya was so obsessed with tracking down Gautam, which from the very beginning, felt a little odd. The portion involving Sandhya and her past with Gautam is wonderfully executed and is put in at the perfect time. The director does misguide us for a certain amount of time, but he does so with our participation. There is a large chunk of the film where we believe that Gautam might be hallucinating the whole portion involving his wife which leads us in some interesting directions. After the slow start, the story quickly changes gears, gets tense and once the mystery starts unraveling, you cannot take your eyes off the screen. The screenplay of the film, as is the case with most South Indian films, is its forte. The end results, though dramatic makes sense and feels conclusive. To the credit of Anup Bhandari, he manages both the lines of the story beautifully and brings it together convincingly in the end. If the film was based on any one of these two mysteries it would have ended up becoming a run-of-the-mills thriller but with the two mysteries running into each other, the film becomes almost impossible to predict. Without spoiling anything, I can say that the film deals with two separate tragedies and makes these two tracks cross a path which in turn makes the narrative unpredictable and thrilling. Anup Bhandari’s vision of the film is rooted in believability and that shows throughout the narrative. The film stars his brother Nirup Bhandari in the title role and it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the film completely anchors itself on the performance of its leading man.

The village of Kamarottu has its own story. He starts questioning his own sanity when it is revealed that she had died 6 years ago, and he had himself cremated her.
