Movie Review - Alone








If you have the appetite for erotic thriller genre, don’t give this movie a miss. The movie has everything in it. Probably it’s the first time in India where someone got the guts to make a movie on conjoined twins, the director Bhushan Patel of Ragini MMS fame has done an extremely decent job.

The movie is a remake of the 2007 Thai horror film with the same name.

Good cinematography, camera angles and excellent special effects, sound effects all fall in perfect place to give you goose bumps throughout the movie. Sanjana and Anjana both played by Bipaasha Basu are conjoined twins and are living a quite happy life until Kabir (Karan Sign Grover) comes into their lives. 

Sanjana and Anjana both fall in love with this Kabir, but Kabir reciprocates this to only one of them. Jealousy and feeling of rejection build up in the other to an extent that she goes ahead kills the other and get separated to enjoy the marital bliss. Years later when the couple comes back to their village the revengeful spirit comes back into their lives and the thrill begins.

The sequences have been articulated carefully to keep the artistic element in this fear genre. Bipasha has done a great job playing a double role as the conjoined twins. She also doubles up as the revengeful spirit that wanted to avenge her own killing.

Practically the whole movie is shot in the picturesque Kerala. The boats, the backwater, coconut grooves and the rainforest of Kerala have been beautifully captured and keep you mesmerized throughout the movie. The well toned curves of Bipasha and the eight packs of Grover is also a treat to watch.

So go ahead, enjoy the evil spirits in the backwater of Kerala with a bucket of popcorn. You will not regret the time and energy spent on it.
