Nushrratt Bharuccha: Chhori is a horror film with a deep rooted social message

Nushrratt Bharuccha

is excited to be a part of a horror film, a genre that she’s exploring for the first ever time in her career. The actress will be seen in Vishal Furia’s Chhori. Shedding more light on the project, Nushrratt says, “It’s not just a horror film, but it will bring to light a deep rooted social message.”As per reports,

Chhori

is the Hindi remake of the Marathi horror-mystery Lapachhapi, which starred Pooja Sawant and Vikram Gaikwad.

Interestingly, it reminds us of horror comedy Stree, featuring Shraddha Kapoor which too had a social message to take away. Ask Nushrratt, who plays the protagonist in the film, if she’s ready to take the film on her shoulder and she says, “I am damn scared.”

She further adds, “My stress is that we have taken the responsibility that too in a genre, which is difficult to crack. If it is a comedy, it is still easy to crack. The spectrum of finding anything funny is larger as you can laugh at something as simple as a knock knock joke also.”

Talking about what makes horror genre a tough nut to crack, Nushrratt had earlier told BT, “The thing is that while watching a spooky scene, people might get scared, but they don’t want to get scared. Ek scene dekhke woh bhale hi dar jayenge, but then at the very next point they need relief, as nobody wants to stay in that fear.”
