Phoonk


The film I recently watched is phoonk (Hindi). It comes under horror genre. Also it is from my favorite director Ram Gopal Varma(RGV). So I watched the film with much expectation. The film has the perfect essence of RGV. Right from the start they just show the dolls and deities for every scene. All the characters in the movie were perfectly chosen especially the character of Madhu, done by Ashwini Kalsekar and The character of Rajeev by Sundeep. The kid Ahsaas Channa is so superb in the movie both in the first half and the second half. After the interval when the kid goes to school and the kid is being possessed by some powers by black magic the camera literally flies through everywhere. Even the character of the doctor has some meaning in it. Till the end of the movie the camera focuses the dolls in every scene. The character of mandar that comes at the end of the film is so disgusting. It is an essence of RGV though. Even though the climax is good there is something missing in it. Also, the screenplay is good. But it is not so scary but interesting up to a mark. Background score is good which makes us still more thrilled. Overall I give 3.5 out of 5 for phoonk.
