The film begins with top notch cinematography.
The story is unique, bringing mythology n the moral subject of human greed.
The story is based on the spooky Indian mythology/horror folktale of a demon who is loaded with gold but deprived of food.
One family has been able to revive the demon by building a temple inside an isolated n creepy mansion. Cos of this the family is ostracised.
The mansion is huge with big doors n fort like walls n only the old father resides in the mansion. The wife/mistress do visit the mansion everyday to give the old husband a hand-job n while she gives him the hand-job, she asks him to hurry up, to which the oldie replies in a funny way.
The wife also inquires about a gold coin which is kept near the demon's idol.
The house of the family is walking distance away from the mansion which is inhabited by the wife n her two kids along with the great great grandmother of the old husband who is being cursed to live forever after the bite of the demon n the old hag needs to be fed regularly while she is asleep or she might resort to cannibalism.
The house is a striking image on top a hill, reminding viewers of isolation in the countryside.
There are no close-by neighbors, as the family is on their own after their ostracisation.
There is something very trance like feel in this movie, especially the weather n the locations.
The constant rain and vivid, well filmed local landscapes are characters themselves.
It is dark n claustrophobic with palpable atmosphere.
Kudos to the cinematographer n director, they did a fantastic job in creating a perpetual and palpable sense of tension and fear.
The director also did a nice job of building a concrete, hypnotizing story without ever having to sacrifice pacing.
The story takes place in a span of thirty years n the details r appropriately handled.
If u notice the mansion in the beginning n after fifteen years, u will see all the details.
Attention has been paid in the local ethnic details, the time period, costumes n architecture.
Also the moral subject of greed n lust are handled very well.
The subject of Sati n female subjugation are sprinkled but not explored.
Soham Shah and the kids gave noteworthy performances.
Appreciate Soham n the producers for producing such a good horror film.
Kudos to the director for a fantastic twist ending.
Love to see a prequel or sequel with more emphasis on the true horror Sati n the demon's backstory.
