But things were not so smooth. Many mistery incidents started occurr in the house from the day one ,puts the couple in a fix which leads them to consult with a Vasthu theorist. He gives scientific explanations to all the happenings and does the deeds to clear off the problems.
But the couple hardly realizes that there are more ominous forces at work which are giving them sleepless scary nights.
=================================================
Deepu has made a good research upon the horror flicks of world cinema and has recreated the techniques and effective gimmicks that can leave a chill down your spine, in the every second minute. And there are plenty of unexpected screaming door bells, terrifying background scores by Benny and plenty of darker, barely lit sequences.
Apart from the decent visuals from JayaKrishnan Gummudy slickly edited by Arunkumar , the big highlight of the movie is its soundtrack designed by Harikumar and Rajakrishnan ably supported by Benny in the BG scores. This seems to be the first movie in Malayalam which had prepared a proper sound scheme even before shooting and it shows its brilliance.
A movie which can satisfy the followers of the horror genre.
