Cast: Prashantt Guptha, Ashrut Jain, Gaurav Paswala, Gaurav Kothari, Disha Kapoor, Niharica RaizadaDirection: Bharat JainGenre: HorrorDuration: 1 hour 47 minutes
Story: Six friends decide to embark on a gruelling trek. One of them decides to shoot their adventure on camera. What begins as a fun trip soon turns into a nightmare as they start experiencing paranormal events. Out of the six gone, only one survives to tell the tale. This film is a Hindi remake of a Kannada horror film.
Review: It's been over a decade since Hollywood took a liking to 'low-budget found footage horror' films. The Blair Witch Project (1999) put the genre on the map, making 'based on real life events' the perfect promotional gimmick. Paranormal Activity's (2007) success further popularised the genre. Unfortunately, in spite of being inspired by the technique years after it became famous, we still fail to nail it.

For starters, for a film to instill fear in your mind, haunting silence is of extreme importance. Fear of the unknown only grips you when you are quiet enough to feel its existence. Sadly, our brand of talkative, conversation-heavy horror films, continue to drive us up the wall as is the case here.
The friends can't shut up to save their lives. When not suffering from verbal diarrhoea, they find time to get scared by strategically-placed voodoo dolls and human skulls.
