The film?s raaz is ironically the weakest point in the film. The actor playing the head priest?s wife gives you the chills. He does need a spiffier haircut and an overall makeover though. Adhyayan Suman is far better in this film than his disastrous debut Haal-e-Dil. She looks good in her new look with the soft perm and slightly over-done make-up. Kangana Ranaut is fabulous both in the tender scenes and in those where she is possessed and going through the usual drone like levitating and screaming. Why would I try committing suicide? Songs, as in most Bhatt films, are quite good. Dialogue is functional, apart from some bloopers like using `son of a bitch? as an expletive and Nandita explaining to Yash ? `You know how much I love myself. Cinematography by Ravi Walia is outstanding, from shot composition to the moody lighting. Like in Vikram Bhatt?s 1920, where the evil spirit is done away with, using the Hanuman Chalisa.ĭirector Mohit Suri?s storytelling is super-stylish, reminiscent of Ram Gopal Varma?s smart thrillers. Then there is the pseudo religion- espousing where a holy man advices Nandita to keep the Bhagvad Gita with her to ward away evil spirits. Most significantly, we are unable to understand the reason for the spirit picking on Nandita in the first place. There too many teases ? the screensaver changing to a blood red `God is Dead!? leads to nothing the track about the Agori tribe has no real significance and the bulls attacking Nandita?s car is there just for the heck. Of course, the film becomes unintentionally comic in portions where we see a monster-like hand emerge out of the ATM machine or when we see Jackie Shroff?s half-disfigured face with several others. Raaz ?The Mystery Continues manages a pretty good rank on the scare-o-meter there are some genuinely chilling scenes, but nothing that?ll give you recurring nightmares. This journey leads her to a village Kalindi in Himachal Pradesh, where the imminent annual mela also has a connection with Nandita. Such incidents continue till she decides to unravel the raaz that connects her to Prithvi and to the spirit that?s determined to harm her. The spirit is ruthless and harasses Nandita again, but Prithvi has already envisioned it and is there to save Nandita. Nandita is frightened, and convinced that she is being attacked by a spirit. The vision of her being taken in by the security had found its way onto Prithvi?s canvas just a day before. Next up, Nandita experiences strange occurrences - at a fashion show, she glares at the chief guest and manhandles him. Meanwhile, Nikita discovers she is pregnant and a near-fatal, freak incident causes her a miscarriage and, you guessed it, a slashed wrist exactly as in the painting. We see that it is the painting of Nandita, with a slashed wrist. To the soundtrack of a woman wailing we see Hashmi?s Prithivi in a damp, dark studio furiously painting. Then follow the usual suspects of every horror film ? the deserted car park, moving camera, the elevator scene and so on. An invitation by this on-off boyfriend Yash (Adhyayan Suman) leads her to the party where his television show dismissing superstitions Andhvishwas is being felicitated.Īll?s well, till she starts getting stalked by saucer-eyed Emraan Hashmi to the haunting tunes of the piano. Nandita (Kangana) is a ramp model in love with the wrong guy, ignoring her own life and career for the relationship.
