Not sure about this one. Rural horror usually just means lots of dusty fields and screaming at the camera 😅 But I do like the cast - Neha Sargam is underrated. Let's see if the director has something fresh.
Actually quite excited for this. Jackie Shroff and Sharad Kelkar together? That's some solid acting talent. The caption "Kheti jagne wali hai" also sounds promising - it gives a chilling vibe. Hope the horror is psychological, not just loud noises.
I'm skeptical. Bollywood horror is mostly disappointing. But credit where due - this poster looks better than most recent horror posters. And Jackie Shroff can still bring it. Just wish they'd stop mentioning Welcome to the Jungle in every article.
Rural horror in Indian cinema can be brilliant when done right - think 'Bulbbul' or 'Tumbbad'. But the article gives zero info about the plot. More than just a poster, we need a trailer to judge. Also, why is Jackie now doing so many projects at once?
The poster actually gave me chills! 😨 Rural settings in Indian horror always have an advantage - our village folklore and superstitions are genuinely scary when used well. Hope the story respects that and doesn't turn into a typical family melodrama.
