'Chhorii 2,' the new horror-thriller starring Nushrratt Bharuccha and Soha Ali Khan, premiered on Amazon Prime Video recently, and here's what the Janta has to say about the film!

Chhorii 2 sees Nushrratt Bharuccha reprising her role as Sakshi, continuing her battle against supernatural forces while confronting the deeply rooted issue of female infanticide and child marriage. Soha Ali Khan joins the cast as Nandini, a character shrouded in mystery and possessing a haunting intensity, adding a new layer of dread to the narrative. Gashmeer Mahajani portrays Samar Pratap, offering a grounded presence amidst the supernatural chaos. The film's plot delves into the dark lore surrounding the village and the vengeful spirits, as Sakshi and Nandini's paths intertwine, revealing a chilling history and confronting the horrors that plague the community, with a little girl, Ishani, adding to the mystery.

This film attempts to blend supernatural horror with a social commentary on child marriage, resulting in a mixed reception. While some viewers praised the film's visuals, performances, and the incorporation of a relevant social issue, others found some horror elements lacking and the narrative slow-paced. Soha Ali Khan's performance was particularly highlighted, with many noting her impactful portrayal. The film's attempt to weave a social message into a horror framework, however, didn't resonate with everyone, leaving some viewers feeling underwhelmed by the overall execution and scare factor.
