3.5 stars (out of 5)

Facts:

This is the third Hindi remake of an Oriol Paulo movie in four years.

1. Sujoy Ghosh turned The Invisible Guest (2016) into Badla (starring Pannu alongside Amitabh Bachchan)

2. Jeethu Joseph reshaped El Cuerpo (2012) into The Body. 

Badla and The Body, both released in 2019, had foreign settings and sought to stay as close as possible to the ambience of the original films

Dobaaraa set in a Pune suburb, sticks in the main to the Mirage storyline but is anything but a slavish copy.

Informed with style, verve and a distinct directorial imprimatur,

Kashyap’s lively version pits humans against each other in baffling mind games amid a thunderstorm of scarily disruptive proportions.

Conclusion : What is especially striking about Dobaaraa is that it makes no major concessions to the audience by resorting to overt explication of the phenomenon that triggers the female protagonist’s predicament although, admittedly, parts of the film are rather easy to decipher.
