I watched this movie for the writer Avinash, as I watch his vlogs, thinking that the first creative break for a writer would be pregnant with promise.
This has been a disappointing effort which uses the trope of idiosyncratic villagers with an even more idiosyncratic ghost to deliver gags. I mean why does a dwarf ghost need a smaller door when there is a bigger door through which they can enter? Particularly when the ghost levitates high above the ground.
The ghost itself looks like it was sketched by someone while they were having diarrhea on a public bus being driving on potholed roads. None of the characters are likeable and the audience can't care any more for their fate than the ghost does.
For all its preachy dialogues about people tormenting those who are not normal, the ghost is more gentlemanly in not attacking the woman who holds him while the ghost hunter removes the one thing that is powerful for the ghost. That only tells me that humans are far more violent than even ghosts, but even this aspect was not built upon.
I was neither scared, nor tickled by this tale which has at its core a violent society that condemns those who are abnormal to a fate that is otherwise delivered by a death that visits before consummation of desires - the fate of a disembodied ghost that carries only desires, but unable to open the doors to their fulfillment.
