‘Chudail’ is a popular form of female ghosts, especially in rural areas. These countless legends in our traditional culture are available in various forms of pulp fiction books, folklore and oral tradition; Like the succubus of western lore… Dracula, Vampire.
Surya Lakkoju, the writer & director of the film, says that since he is a fan of Hitchcock films, he has given a Hitchcockian way to present the story. “My approach has been innovative, different and I have adapted the narrative style of a thriller. You can almost feel the suspense elements that arrests you with its sheer intense drama. Taking a cue from the richly imaginative and fascinating traditional ‘chudail’ stories, I am triggered by its sheer audacity of holding power; I am attempting to tell a terrifying story, that one hasn’t seen till now.”
