Raaz 2 Scariest flick on the make
"If at all I hadn't watched Grudge-2, idea of brimming up with Raaz-2 wouldn't have stricken me" says Mohit Suri. With his unique panache, he churned out finest piece of works Awarappan, Woh Lamhe, Kalyug and Zeher. Hopping from those emotional themes, we have this auteur gearing up with Raaz-2. Well, Mohit Suri utters it's not a sequel to Bhatt's Raaz that swayed chilling everyone's spines before 6 years. Adding on more, he continues that unlike most of the clich©d horrors where ghost seeks vengeance of mortal entity, Raaz-2 has something more to offer than it. The flick has Imran Hasmi, Kangana Ranaut and Shekar Suman's son Adhyayan Suman in lead. Fine! Not just Mohit, but the entire crewmembers sing appraisals of Adhyayan's top-notched performance. According to the sources, Imran Hasmi plays the role of a painter while Kangana is a modern Indian woman and Adhyayan takes on the role of a documentary filmmaker and an atheist. These characterizations may let you feel there isn't anything so peculiar, but again we have Mohit saying it would be off a great surprise while seen on the screen.
