Genre: Thriller Recommended: Parental Guidance Released: 15 August 2021
Starring: Aryan Vikal, Peeyush Suhaney, Ritu Pandey
Directed by: Anil Ramchandra Sharma
Bedaad
is a psycho-Thriller, a work of fiction inspired by short stories
written by Anil Ramchandra Sharma that is streaming on TALKIEZ a new OTT
platform launched on our 75th Independence Day. The web series attempts
to unmask the so called respected who are supposedly leading an ideal
life in the eyes of our society.
Beginning with
being felicitated with Best Couple of the Year – Adi Doctor by
profession and his wife Apurva are confronted by a psychopath who traps
them in their own house. During the course of experiencing being held as
hostage in their own home, the couple begins to doubt each other about
their past. While the wife thinks that the psychopath is either her
husband’s patient or has something to do about his past, the doctor
doubts if the psycho is connected to his wife’s past.
The
game of wits and one-upmanship takes place when the cops on duty reach
their house. In the meantime there are more revealations about the
motive of the intruder in the house. The hidden back stories tumble one
upon the other.
It is then justified that the
psycho had a traumatic experience in his childhood. A can of worms us
opened one by one. Thats fine, but what was the need for a raunchy item
number in the so far gripping thriller? Just to degrade the men! The
story begins to drag towards the end prophecising about how the able and
powerful people can take advantage of the aam aadmi.
In
the introductory stages, Peeyush Suhaney and Ritu Pandey as the ideal
couple appeared artificial, however as the story moves on, this doctor
and professor couple begin to grown upon you. However one notch better
is Aryan Vikal as the psychotic intruder plays his part convincingly and
displays a promising future.
The
highlight of the film is the meaningful choreographed number at the end
of the story and it’s captivating music by Kaushal Mahavir. By the way,
one should curb the animal instinct in our mind before it grows upon
you!
