Horror Universe Gets A Social Boost But Suffers From Inefficient Content.

8 decades after George Waggner‘s iconic werewolf film, The Wolf Man (1941), Amar Kaushik takes up the same subject with Bhediya for a social message set in the forests of Arunachal Pradesh. Varun Dhawan gets into the shoes of Lon Chaney Jr.‘s memorable character of a werewolf, while Kriti Sanon is not what the other ladies played in that film. Kaushik‘s horror universe started on a solid note with Stree (2018), but then the humdrum attempt by Hardik Mehta, Roohi (2021), brought black clouds of tension over the emerging cinematic universe. I really thought that Amar Kaushik was the only person who could have brought the horror universe back on track, but it seems that I was putting up a lot of expectations on him. Bhediya tries too hard to become Stree (with a creature instead of a ghost), but surrenders to its inorganic humour and repetitive conflicts.
