MOVIE REVIEW: Director Vikas Bahl’s latest offering, “Shaitaan,” is a nail-biting gripping supernatural thriller that deftly sidesteps the clichés of the genre to deliver a fresh and captivating cinematic experience. Penned by the talented duo Aamir Keeyan Khan and Krishnadev Yagnik, the film boasts a captivating plot that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. Cinematographer Sudhakar Reddy Yakkanti’s masterful work in creating an atmosphere of dread and darkness. The haunting score from Amit Trivedi enhances the overall tension of the film.
From the first scenes, Shaitaan wastes no time grabbing the audience’s attention, with numerous spine-chilling moments scattered throughout the film. The first half of the film sets the stage for the impending terror. The interval block leaves viewers eager for more. The fast-paced second half ensures that there’s never a dull moment, keeping the audience engaged and invested.
Ajay Devgn, as the central character, embodies the film’s soul with his portrayal of a father driven by desperation and determination to protect his daughter. R Madhavan delivers a standout performance as Vanraaj, bringing a nuanced complexity to his truly exceptional character. Jyotika provides excellent support as the mother and her performance adds another layer of authenticity to the narrative. Anngad Raaj was decent. However, it’s Janki Bodiwala’s portrayal of the possessed girl that truly steals the show and her performance is mesmerizing & haunting.
