There are good films and there are great films but few films have the potential to change a genre or start a new one. "Phobia" is one such gem of a film that demands your attention and might just be the game-changer in the space of psychological horror thrillers in Hindi cinema.
The film's taut narrative neither ignores viewer's intelligence nor does it test their patience.Phobia, a movie about a girl living in a sub-urb, afraid of the outer world.Like any good movie, the story builds up gradually, with some chilling scenes as we approach the interval.
The Director here has to be credited for keeping the scenes chilling and dramatic at the same time. The film touches upon a lot of issues, of-course we have the issue of agoraphobia as the main theme, but at the same time, we also have the issue of a friend helping the protagonist, for sex. Exploiting her, when she is most vulnerable emotionally.Hence posing a very fundamental questions, can't we help anyone without expecting a favor in return.Also the music, the cinematography are excellent. But what makes this movie a memorable one is the acting of Radhika Apte. She has delivered a commendable performance. She is able to convince the audience that she is mentally stable & mentally ill at the same time.I do recommend this movie for all the people who enjoy a chill down their spine.
