MysticManiac – 7/10
“I wasn't expecting such a slow-burn, but the atmosphere really got under my skin. The way the mansion feels like its own character is creepy. It's not jump-scare horror, but it lingers.”
BollywoodNostalgia – 6/10
“For me, the film is more of a psychological drama with horror elements. The acting is solid, but the pacing dragged in the middle. Still, the unsettling vibe makes it worth a watch for fans of classic horror.”
GoreHound_1980 – 5/10
“I came for scares but found a lot of tension without much payoff. The story is interesting, but it felt too subtle for my taste. The ending left me wanting more horror.”
NightOwl_2011 – 8/10
“One of the few Indian horror films that rely on dread rather than cheap shocks. The director's meticulous build-up had me on edge. Loved the psychological layers—definitely a hidden gem.”
