![]() What stands out is the soundtrack and sound effects by Thaman, about whom you’ll hear about again in the later stages of the article. Director Ashok who previously made ‘Pilla Zamindar’, does a good job, despite not getting the deserved pat on the back. The art and set design are great and the script packs the right amount of thrills. This character is Anushka’s bread and butter and she duly delivers. What follows is a normal horror drama, but twists and turns start popping up, making it more of a cleverly written thriller towards the end, along with the horror element of course. She is rigorously interrogated by the CBI and Police for months, and all she can do is deny the charges against her. The bungalow is said to be haunted by the spirit of Bhaagamathie, who lived in it decades ago. The story revolves around a government official who is framed for a crime and is locked in a spooky bungalow. After almost a decade, she got back into the horror genre and acted in ‘Bhaagamathie’. One might say that her performance in that film built a platform for her to go on and act as the mighty Devasena in the epic ‘Baahubali’. This not only started a trend in the Telugu Cinema industry but also started a trend of horror films with female protagonists across South India. 2009 was a year where Anushka Shetty broke the shackles and gave a performance of her life in the horror film ‘Arundhathi’.
