Remake of a Korean film, Blind tells the story of a feisty police officer from Glasgow, Scotland ( Sonam Kapoor) who is blinded in an accident. She is fiercely independent and doesn't want her disability to hold her back . This is when a serial killer enters her life and starts stalking her. Will our blind protagonist come out a winner is what this film is all about.
A female protagonist with a disability stalked by a serial killer looks like an interesting subject for an engaging suspense thriller. However this isn't the case!!
Purab Kohli as the serial killer ( i am not giving up the suspense, this is revealed at the start itself) doesn't send a chill down ur spine like Aashutosh Rana in Dushman or a Prashant Narayanan in Murder 2 have shown in the past. He is quite insipid and has tried to put out his best serious, gaunt look. Unfortunately neither convincing, nor scary!!
Sonam Kapoor does well in her role and so does Vinay Pathak as a Police officer assisting her in the case!!
Not a bad film... yet it felt as if something was missing in it- jumpscare moments, element of surprise, suspense & tension were very few!!
Cudve definitely been better!! One time watch if u like Sonam Kapoor!!
Going with 2.5/5 .. Adios🙂!!
