Like a well made psychological thriller, the filmmaker builds the anticipation and thrill level, keeping the end as mysterious as possible and when finally the tale is laid out, audience will be begging for more. The director has done a remarkable job hoisting seven different cameras for each scene, which is something to look forward to. He specialized in blood and mirror breaking scenes, which are key elements for any psychological thriller.

There’s an item song in the film, which is quite good, but unnecessary. At times the entire purpose of violence and sexual tension is lost, as the newbie, despite their gallant efforts, miss the emotions completely. With the success of their current project, X Ray – The Inner Image, one could expect another hit as the duo is currently shooting for their fourth outing Jaako Raakhey Saaiyan.
