Baramulla review: Nicely Crafted And Acted But Fails To Connect

‘Baramulla’ - The super hit ‘Article 370’ pair of producer Aditya Dhar and director Aditya Suhas Jambhale come together in this touted bone chilling super natural thriller based in Kashmir. ‘Baramulla’ is technically polished, nicely crafted and acted but the Manav Kaul and Bhasha Sumbli starrer fails to connect and seems forced.

Baramulla movie synopsis

In the shadowed valley of Baramulla, a young boy vanishes during a magic show — and nothing is the same ever again.

DSP Ridwaan Shafi Sayyid (Manav Kaul) is called to Baramulla to investigate. A no-nonsense officer haunted by his past, Ridwaan finds himself navigating a case entangled in the valley’s socio-political unrest and long-buried secrets. As he settles in the town with his wife, Gulnaar (Bhasha Sumbli), and their children, Noorie (Arista Mehta) and Ayaan (Rohaan Singh), strange occurrences begin to unfold at home. Gulnaar senses an eerie presence, one that the children can feel too, from smelling a non-existent dog to hearing creaky footsteps in the middle of the night. While Ridwaan dismisses their fears as nonsense, each conversation draws him closer to something he cannot explain. He must confront a darkness that runs deeper than reason, and a haunting that refuses to stay hidden.
