Film Review: Shaitaan screening in theatres !!

Shaitaan is a remake of the Gujarati film "Vash" which I am sure most you ( including me ) didn't watch🙂 .

A simple story of a family of 4 going on a weekend trip to their farmhouse. On the way they meet a stranger who seems friendly at first but has sinister intentions. He uses black magic to gain control of the girls mind and uses it to get a consent from the parents to take her away. The question is why does he want the girl & will the parents be able to save her .

R Madhavan as the "Shaitaan" is brilliant as the antagonist and is evil personified . He is the highlight of the film for sure. Ajay Devgan, Jyotika & especially Janki Bodiwala, the girl whose mind is controlled by the antagonist lend strong support to Madhavan in this simple tale of good vs evil supernatural thriller.

The last 15 mins of the film are a bit cliched but the twist in the climax is awesome. Definitely worth the wait!!

Great direction, editing and a stellar cast with great performances will definitely make this an entertaining watch for fans of this genre !! Watch this film on Netflix when it streams, if you aren't able to catch it in theatres!

I enjoyed it .. will go with 3.5/5 for this one .. adios 🙂!!
