Dobaaraa
25 years. One unsolved mystery. And countless unanswered questions.
Directed by Anurag Kashyap
Produced by Cult Movies, The Vermillion World
A time-bending thriller that uses a supernatural intervention to explore the unintended consequences of altering the past, grounded in mystery and existential dread.
In the 1990s, during a wild thunderstorm night, 12-year-old Anay dies in a road accident shortly after he sees his next-door neighbor committing a crime. Twenty-five years later, in a strange turn of events, on an identical stormy night, Antara finds herself in front of a TV set through which she attempts to save Anay’s life but her good deed causes a disturbing chain of unexpected consequences.
